SoundPool (Sound Pool)

The SoundPool module provides APIs for loading, unloading, playing, and stopping playing system sounds, setting the volume, and setting the number of loops.

Before using these APIs, you must call media.createSoundPool to create a SoundPool instance.

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 10. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.

Modules to Import

import media from '@ohos.multimedia.media';
import audio from '@ohos.multimedia.audio';

PlayParameters

Describes the playback parameters of the sound pool.

These parameters are used to control the playback volume, number of loops, and priority.

System capability: SystemCapability.Multimedia.Media.SoundPool

Name Type Mandatory Description
loop number No Number of loops. The value 0 means that the sound does not loop (the sound is played once), and -1 means that the sound loops forever.
rate number No Playback rate. For details, see AudioRendererRate.
leftVolume number No Volume of the left channel. The value ranges from 0 to 1.
rightVolume number No Volume of the right channel. (Currently, the volume cannot be set separately for the left and right channels. The volume set for the left channel is used.)
priority number No Playback priority. The value 0 means the lowest priority. A larger value indicates a higher priority.
parallelPlayFlag boolean No Whether the sound can be played in parallel with other active audio streams. The value true means that the sound can be played in parallel with other active audio streams, without preempting the audio focus, and false means the opposite.
This is a system API.

SoundPool

Implements a sound pool that provides APIs for loading, unloading, playing, and stopping playing system sounds, setting the volume, and setting the number of loops. Before using these APIs, you must call createSoundPool to create a SoundPool instance.

load

load(uri: string, callback: AsyncCallback<number>): void

Loads a sound. This API uses an asynchronous callback to obtain the sound ID. The input parameter uri is a string starting with fd://, which is generated based on the file descriptor (FD) obtained.

System capability: SystemCapability.Multimedia.Media.SoundPool

Parameters

Name Type Mandatory Description
uri string Yes URI of the audio file to load. Generally, the URI starts with fd://.
callback AsyncCallback<number> Yes Callback used to return the ID of the sound loaded. A valid value must be greater than 0.

Error codes

For details about the error codes, see Media Error Codes.

ID Error Message
5400102 Operation not allowed. Return by callback.
5400103 I/O error. Return by callback.
5400105 Service died. Return by callback.
