Question

I have application that searchs External storage for the file i want..Example for song named sound1.mp3 String path = getFullFilePath(getApplicationContext(), "sound1.mp3); .I use loaded sound for soundpool. I want to get text from Preference Edittext and use it except “sound1.mp3”.. I tried this :

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
         SharedPreferences getPrefs = PreferenceManager
                    .getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
            SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences("EditText",0);
            String zipStr = settings.getString("ime", "");   
        sp = new SoundPool(5, AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 0);
        String path = getFullFilePath(getApplicationContext(), zipStr);
        Log.d("ime", "Path: " + path);
        mSoundId = sp.load(path, 1);

LogCat gives this :

11-06 15:57:59.169: D/ime(5688): Path: /mnt/sdcard
11-06 15:57:59.539: E/SoundPool(5688): Unable to load sample: (null)

Answer 1

The path you have stored in zipStr is, according to your LogCat, /mnt/sdcard

SoundPool.load requires the path to an audio file (see documentation: SoundPool.load()).

make sure your zipStr is equal to something like /mnt/sdcard/sound1.mp3.
