Android Question Click sound on buttons unreliable

[Roger Daley]

Hi All

I have an App with a number of buttons which have the option of making a "click" sound when pressed. I have used Media Player and a sound file [7ms] to do this, however the "click" sound does not always work. It's operation is intermittent and unpredictable.
Possibly there is a better way to use Media Player or even a better way to make a button "click".

Any sugestions welcome.

Regards Roger

Sub Process_Globals
    Dim MP As MediaPlayer
        Dim  btnClick_flag  As Int

        Etc........
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    If FirstTime Then
        MP.Initialize2("MP")
        MP.Load(File.DirAssets,"click.wav")
               Etc............
       End If
End Sub

Sub AnyButton_Click
    If btnClick_flag = 1 Then MP.Play
        Etc..........
End Sub

Try using SoundPool

Hello @Roger Daley,
Try this code out.

You will need to check the 'Audio' library in your library tab

    Dim Beep As Beeper 'Place in Sub Globals 
        Beep.Initialize(100, 1000) 'Place in Activity_Create. Adjust the duration and frequency until you get the desired click sound 

        Beep.Beep 'Call in button sub whenever you want hear hear beep/click sound

Enjoy...

Thanks guys both solutions work. I went for sound pool to keep the recorded [waveform shaped] sound but Beeper opens up other possibilties for the future.
