The idea is simple and I do not think that the question has been asked in the past.
I want to build a simple mp3 player.
some songs displayed in a collection view the user selects a song
segue to another view with options to play, pause or stop only issue
is when you go back to the home screen to select a new song with the
current still playing. It is impossible to deactivate the current
player. When you need to play the 2 songs, the 2 are playing together
I have tried a lot of things
- create a new instance of player (player = AVAudioPlayer())
- player.pause() and player.play()
I do not see what I am doing wrong really.
this is my code :
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class LecteurViewController: UIViewController {
var chansonSelected: Chanson? = nil
var lecteur:AVAudioPlayer = AVAudioPlayer()
var timer1 = Timer()
var timer2 = Timer()
#IBOutlet weak var dureeChansonSlider: UISlider!
#IBOutlet weak var chansonImageView: UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var chansonVolumeSlider: UISlider!
#IBOutlet weak var debutLabel: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var finLabel: UILabel!
#IBAction func stopMusicAction(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
var player = AVAudioPlayer()
lecteur.stop()
LecteurManager.isActive = false
}
#IBAction func pauseMusicAction(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
var player = AVAudioPlayer()
lecteur.pause()
LecteurManager.isActive = false
}
#IBAction func jouerMusicAction(_ sender: UIButton) {
if LecteurManager.isActive {
changeSong()
print("lecteur déjà en cours")
} else {
var player = AVAudioPlayer()
lecteur.play()
}
print(LecteurManager.isActive )
LecteurManager.isActive = true
}
func changeSong() {
lecteur.stop()
//lecteur = AVAudioPlayer()
jouerLecteurMp3()
print(chansonSelected!)
lecteur.play()
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
configureView()
}
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
jouerLecteurMp3()
}
func configureView() {
self.title = (chansonSelected!.titre!).capitalized
chansonImageView.image = UIImage(named: "\(chansonSelected!.image).jpgs")
//formatter 'back' button
let backBtn = UIBarButtonItem(title: "< Playlist", style: .plain, target: self, action: #selector(LecteurViewController.reset(_sender:)))
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = backBtn
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.tintColor = UIColor.white
//contrôler volume chanson
chansonVolumeSlider.addTarget(self, action: #selector(LecteurViewController.ajusterVolume(_ :)), for: UIControlEvents.valueChanged)
//contrôler durée chanson
dureeChansonSlider.addTarget(self, action: #selector(LecteurViewController.ajusterDurée(_ :)), for: UIControlEvents.valueChanged)
updateUI()
}
func updateUI() {
//indiquer position chanson
timer1 = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 1, target: self, selector: #selector(LecteurViewController.mettreAJourDurée), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
//afficher durée chanson
timer2 = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 1, target: self, selector: #selector(LecteurViewController.afficherDurée), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
}
func reset(_sender:UIBarButtonItem) {
self.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true)
}
func ajusterVolume(_ sender:UISlider) {
//print("volume ajusté \(chansonVolumeSlider.value)")
lecteur.volume = chansonVolumeSlider.value
}
func ajusterDurée(_ sender:UISlider) {
lecteur.currentTime = TimeInterval(dureeChansonSlider.value)
}
func mettreAJourDurée() {
dureeChansonSlider.value = Float(lecteur.currentTime)
}
func afficherDurée() {
print("durée actuelle: \(lecteur.duration - lecteur.currentTime)")
debutLabel.text = retournerPositionActuelle()
finLabel.text = retournerDureeTotal()
}
func retournerPositionActuelle() -> String {
let seconds = Int(lecteur.currentTime) % 60
let minutes = (Int(lecteur.currentTime) / 60) % 60
return String(format: "%0.2i:%0.2i", minutes, seconds)
}
func retournerDureeTotal() -> String {
let seconds = Int(lecteur.currentTime) % 60
let minutes = (Int(lecteur.currentTime) / 60) % 60
return String(format: "%0.2i:%0.2i", minutes, seconds)
}
func jouerLecteurMp3() {
let chanson = "bensound-\(chansonSelected!.titre!)"
let fichierMp3 = Bundle.main.path(forResource: chanson, ofType: "mp3")
do {
try lecteur = AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: URL(string: fichierMp3!)!)
dureeChansonSlider.maximumValue = Float(lecteur.duration)
} catch {
print("erreur lecture mp3")
}
}
}
Try this:
func reset(_sender:UIBarButtonItem)
{
self.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true)
lecteur.stop()
}

I'm trying to make a simple music player. I want the label to display the current position of the AVMIDIPlayer. With my code the label is only updated once at the very beginning:
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var player:AVMIDIPlayer = AVMIDIPlayer()
var playerTime:Double = 999 {
didSet {
label.text = String(playerTime)
}
}
#IBOutlet var label: UILabel!
#IBAction func Play(_ sender: Any) {
player.play()
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
do {
let audioPath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: “song”, ofType: "mid")
try player = AVMIDIPlayer(contentsOf: NSURL(fileURLWithPath: audioPath!) as URL, soundBankURL: nil)
playerTime = player.currentPosition
}
catch {
}
}
}
What have I missed, please? Thank you. Scarlett
The reason the label isn’t updating is you’re setting the text in viewDidLoad which is called only once. Use a Timer to update the label.
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var player:AVMIDIPlayer = AVMIDIPlayer()
var playerTime:Double = 999 {
didSet {
label.text = String(playerTime)
}
}
var timer = Timer()
#IBOutlet var label: UILabel!
#IBAction func Play(_ sender: Any) {
player.play()
// this will execute every 0.1 seconds, allowing you to update the label.
timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 0.1, repeats: true) { _ in
self.playerTime += 0.1
let min = self.playerTime.truncatingRemainder(dividingBy: 3600)) / 60
let sec = self.playerTime.truncatingRemainder(dividingBy: 60)
self.label.text = String(format: "%02d:%02d", min, sec)
}
}
func stop() {
// when you stop playback
timer.invalidate()
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
do {
let audioPath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: “song”, ofType: "mid")
try player = AVMIDIPlayer(contentsOf: NSURL(fileURLWithPath: audioPath!) as URL, soundBankURL: nil)
playerTime = player.currentPosition
}
catch {
}
}
}
I'm using Swift 5 in Xcode to code an app. On one view controller, I am creating a timer, which counts from 20 minutes down to 0. I have what I think is a successful code, but it throws back one error. In the line
timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 0.01, target: self, selector: #selector(SkippingViewController.updateTimer), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
it gives an error saying Type 'SkippingViewController' has no member 'updateTimer' (SkippingViewController is the name of the view controller for the page of the app my timer is on)
How can I resolve this issue?
import UIKit
class SkippingViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var timeLabel: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var startWorkoutButton: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var pauseWorkoutButton: UIButton!
var timer = Timer()
var counter = 20.00
var isRunning = false
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
timeLabel.text = "\(counter)"
startWorkoutButton.isEnabled = true
pauseWorkoutButton.isEnabled = false
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
#IBAction func startWorkoutButtonDidTouch(_ sender: Any) {
if !isRunning {
timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 0.01, target: self, selector: #selector(SkippingViewController.updateTimer), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
startWorkoutButton.isEnabled = false
pauseWorkoutButton.isEnabled = true
isRunning = true
}
}
#IBAction func pauseWorkoutButtonDidTouch(_ sender: Any) {
func updateTimer() {
counter -= 0.01
timeLabel.text = String(format: "%.01f", counter)
}
}
}
Your problem is, that there is no method called 'updateTimer' in SkippingViewController.swift. You falsely put the method inside of the method 'pauseWorkoutButtonDidTouch'. In order to resolve the error insert the following code into SkippingViewController.swift:
#objc func updateTimer() {
counter -= 0.01
timeLabel.text = String(format: "%.01f", counter)
}
why currentTime and duration of AVAudioPlayer are nil?
Recently faced with a task when creating a player
link to the mp3 working, checked
but at the same time track duration and currenttime nil
I try to change AVAudioPlayer to AVPlayer, but I have same problem
What I need to do to correct this?
Maybe I must to download this mp3 before read duration?
But it would be better to solve this problem without downloading mp3
import UIKit

self.remainingTimeLabel.text = String(format: "%d:%02d", Int(self.player!.duration - self.player!.currentTime) / 60, Int(self.player!.duration - self.player!.currentTime) % 60)

Use AVPlayer over AVAudioPlayer so that you can observe the current play time with addPeriodicTimeObserver.
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
// MARK: - Variables
var player: AVPlayer?
#IBAction func playAudio(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
player?.play()
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
guard let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "myAudio", ofType:"m4a") else {
debugPrint("File not found")
return
}
let audioURL = URL(fileURLWithPath: path)
let playerItem = AVPlayerItem(url: audioURL)
player = AVPlayer(playerItem: playerItem)
player!.addPeriodicTimeObserver(forInterval: CMTimeMakeWithSeconds(1, preferredTimescale: 1), queue: DispatchQueue.main) { (CMTime) -> Void in
if self.player!.currentItem?.status == .readyToPlay {
let time : Float64 = CMTimeGetSeconds(self.player!.currentTime());
print("Current play time: \(time)")
}
}
}
}
I want my countdown timer to suspend and then resume when the app leaves / returns to focus, using the time away to calculate how much time should be deducted.
I am using the app delegate file (not sure thats the right location? or if they are meant to be in the view controllers file as functions of their own?)
Issue is im getting a lot of errors such as:
Value of type 'AppDelegate' has no member 'restTimer'
Use of unresolved identifier 'nextFireDate'
Use of unresolved identifier 'selector'
restTimer was declared as a timer in my view controllers file but when i tried these blocks in that file i got an equal number of errors for unresolved identifiers
and using the following 2 code blocks
func applicationWillResignActive(_ application: UIApplication) {
guard let t = self.restTimer else { return }
nextFireDate = t.fireDate
t.invalidate()
and
func applicationDidBecomeActive(_ application: UIApplication) {
guard let n = nextFireDate else { return }
let howMuchLonger = n.timeIntervalSinceDate(NSDate())
if howMuchLonger < 0 {
print("Should have already fired \(howMuchLonger) seconds ago")
target!.performSelector(selector!)
} else {
print("should fire in \(howMuchLonger) seconds")
Timer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(howMuchLonger, target: target!, selector: selector!, userInfo: nil, repeats: false)
}
}

I think you cannot rely on the fact that the app will remain in memory while it is in the background. Thus, you should archive all the data you need to recreate the timer at the exact point.
For example, in applicationWillResignActive
UserDefaults.standard.set(value: t.nextFireDate forKey:"NextFireDate")
and in applicationWillEnterForeground
if let fireDate = UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: "NextFireDate") {
// setup a timer with the correct fire date
}
You don't have to use the AppDelegate for this because it also posts notifications. You can use the AppDelegate if you want. Here is code using notifications:
class ViewController: UIViewController{
private let startDateKey = "start.date"
private let interval = TimeInterval(20)
private var startDate: Date!
private var timer: Timer!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
createTimer(interval: interval)
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(willResignActive), name: NSNotification.Name.UIApplicationWillResignActive, object: nil)
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(didBecomeActive), name: NSNotification.Name.UIApplicationDidBecomeActive, object: nil)
}
deinit {
NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self)
}
#objc private func willResignActive(notification: Notification) {
print("resigning")
guard timer.isValid else {
UserDefaults.standard.removeObject(forKey: startDateKey)
return
}
timer.invalidate()
UserDefaults.standard.set(Date(), forKey: startDateKey)
}
#objc private func didBecomeActive(notification: Notification) {
print("resume")
if let startDate = UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: startDateKey) as? Date {
let elapsed = -startDate.timeIntervalSinceNow
print("elpased time: \(elapsed) remaining time: \(interval - elapsed)")
if elapsed > interval {
timerUp()
} else {
createTimer(interval: interval - elapsed)
}
}
}
private func createTimer (interval: TimeInterval) {
timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: interval , repeats: false) {[weak self] _ in
self?.timerUp()
}
startDate = Date()
}
private func timerUp() {
print("At least \(interval) seconds has elapsed")
}
}
working on my first stopwatch app.
I currently have a play button, pause button, and stop button.
I'd like to combine the play and pause button so that they switch back and forth.
My code looks like this:
var timer = NSTimer()
var count = 0
func updateTime() {
count++
time.text = "\(count)"
}
#IBAction func pauseButton(sender: AnyObject) {
timer.invalidate()
}
#IBOutlet weak var time: UILabel!
#IBAction func stopButton(sender: AnyObject) {
timer.invalidate()
count = 0
time.text = "0"
}
#IBAction func playButton(sender: AnyObject) {
timer = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(1, target: self, selector: Selector("updateTime"), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
}
Any help is appreciated.
Try adding booleans. See my code below.
#IBOutlet weak var label: UILabel!
var time = NSTimer()
var count = 0
var running = false
func result (){
count++
label.text = String(count)
println(count)
}
#IBAction func playpause(sender: AnyObject) {
if running == false {
time = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(1, target: self, selector: Selector("result"), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
running = true }
else {
time.invalidate()
running = false
}
}
Hope this helps!
You'll have a variable bound to the button, something like this:
#IBOutlet var thePlayPauseButton : UIButton!
This button will be linked with some action:
#IBAction func togglePlayPauseButton (button: UIButton) {
// If we are 'paused', then play:
if button.titleLabel!.text == "Pause" {
button.titleLabel!.text = "Play"
// do actual play ...
timer = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval (1,
target: self,
selector: Selector("updateTime"),
userInfo: nil,
repeats: true)
}
else if button.titleLabel!.text == "Play" {
button.titleLabel!.text = "Pause"
// do actual pause ...
timer.invalidate()
}
else { /* error */ }
}
Of course, structurally you can use a switch//case and you can perform the toggle behavior by calling your preexisting pause and play methods.
I know this post is somewhat dated, but I was working with the same problem and I came up with a slightly different answer and wanted to share it to help others. Here is what I came up with in toggling the pause and play buttons.
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var time = NSTimer()
var seconds = 0
var running = false
func timer() {
seconds++
timeLabel.text = "\(seconds)"
}
func playing() {
time = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(1, target: self, selector: Selector("timer"), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
running = true
}
func pausing() {
time.invalidate()
running = false
}
#IBOutlet weak var timeLabel: UILabel!
#IBAction func stopButton(sender: AnyObject) {
time.invalidate()
seconds = 0
timeLabel.text = "0"
}
#IBAction func pausePlayToggleButton(sender: AnyObject) {
if running == false {
return playing()
} else {
return pausing()
}
}
I had both a pause and play button and I essentially took their effects and placed them in functions and used them as return values for a single button.
