Android media player stops when open gallery - android

I developed a simple music player using MediaPlayer class. I played a song using it, minimize my music player, then I open native gallery, and my application get weird.
It becomes like stuck for a few seconds, and then it started to play new song.
I also did like that using android native player and the player paused when gallery opened.
Do you guys know what might cause my application stucked like that?
I really appreciate any help from you guys,
Regards,
Chrisma Andhika

see in your app, if you minimize your app it goes to onpause() state again come return to app it will call onresume() state. so it takes some time. there is nothing weird in this thing.

How to disable audio capabilities for entire app

I have an app that plays videos using the video_player package. These videos have sound, but I don't want to play it. To achieve this, I use:
controller.setVolume(0.0)
The problem is whenever I open the app, even before playing a video, any background music stops.
I figure there must be a way to say "this app does not have sound capability" and then the OS won't pause any background music.
Is there a flutter specific way to do this, or should I look for iOS and Android specific solutions?
Thanks!

How to turn off all other music when my Android app is playing music?

I was wondering how to exactly stop all other music that may be playing when my app is opened whenever there is music being played in my application. I have a couple instances where I just have sound effects, so is there anyway I can stop music that may be playing already whenever these sound effects pop up? I know I'm not giving any code, however, I have no idea how to approach this and haven't found many other questions asking similar things.Thanks!
Look at the AudioManager.requestAudioFocus API. Remember to release the focus when you're done with it, or other apps may not be able to play sounds correctly.

Playing music in PlayN: how to pause, resume?

I am playing some background music in my PlaynN game. Everything is fine except it does not pause when the activity is sent to the background. Music still plays when the game is not playing.
I can use Sound.stop() and Sound.play() whenever the window focus changes but then the music restarts from the beginning. I can instead use setVolume(0) and setVolume(1), but it still doesn't sound the way it is supposed to.
I cannot find a working example. I am currently considering the use of a platform specific music player.
Many thanks
To my knowledge, PlayN doesn't support pausing/resuming a Sound, probably because not all platforms support this. However, you might want to take a look at the Android-specific implementation of AndroidAudio, which seems to use a SoundPool backend. The GameActivity seems to already pause and resume sounds when the window gains/looses focus, so I'm not sure why it's not working for you - I believe it has for me. You might try calling these methods manually to test that they work, and if not consider filing an issue.

How to keep MediaPlayer going no matter what

So I've been working on a music player for Android and I've run into a problem I'm having trouble fixing. When the user starts a song, I store the currently playing song in a public variable in my "Player" class. This is used to determine what song to play next, among other things.
The problem is that the app sometimes crashes when the user opens a lot of other memory intensive apps. The MediaPlayer stops playing, and the reference to the currently playing song is lost. I'm pretty sure this happens because these other apps claim the memory that my app was using.
My question is: How can I make sure the MediaPlayer always keeps on playing? The standard Android music player doesn't seem to have this problem so it should definitely be possible to keep it playing at all times somehow.
The best you can do is host the MediaPlayer in a foreground Service.
