B4X:

Dim MB As MediaBrowser
...
MB.Initialize("MB")
...
MB.MediaAudioPlay(True, ID)

why when screen orientation change, the play is stopped?

(i've no mb.mediastop or mb.mediapause in activity_pause or activity_resume)

I need the playing continues without interruptions..

Changing orientation restarts the app, if you want continuos playing then add the playback to a service.

i do:

B4X:

Dim MB As MediaBrowser
...
'--- start play as service
playService.MB = MB
playService.ID_AudioFile = playButton.Tag
StartService(playService)

PlayService:

B4X:

Sub Process_Globals
Dim MB As MediaBrowser 
Dim ID_AudioFile As Int
End Sub

Sub Service_Start (StartingIntent As Intent)
        '--- play file
        MB.MediaAudioPlay(True, ID_AudioFile)
End Sub

Sub Service_Destroy
   MB.MediaStop
End Sub

But when i rotate screen now the music continues to play, but if user click on other song, STARTS 2 SERVICES and the 2 songs overlap...!
can i control if service is active and kill it before start new service? (should play only the last selected song)

thanks

When the user selects a track you should kill the service and then restart it.

Put "Dim MB As MediaBrowser" in Process_Globals. You don't need a service.
