Android Question MediaPlayerStream Resume

[cbanks]

What is the code to resume MediaPlayerStream audio? I don't mean just the stop and play, but a way to save where the user was and when they run the app to resume where they left off. Thanks.

This is the code I use.

Private Sub btnPlayPause_Click
    If mp.IsPlaying Then
        mp.Pause
        btnPlayPause.Text = "paused"
        ShowStatus("Paused")
    Else
        mp.Play
        btnPlayPause.Text = "playing"
    End If
End Sub

But that doesn't resume if you exit the app inbetween pausing and playing again.

Probably because MediaPlayerStream get destroyed when you exit the app so it does not remember where it was at.

How do you exit the app?

You can save MP.Position value to a file and then load it when the activity is created for the first time.

Position isn't an option for me with MediaPlayerStream.

Position doesn't seem to be an option for MediaPlayerStream. Is there a way to save where you left off and resume there next time you start the app when streaming audio?

This is technically impossible. The stream is "live". You cannot pause and later return to a previous point.

Ignore my previous answer as I was writing about MediaPlayer, not MediaPlayerStream.
