Channels and platform threading error

[mbfakourii]

Which API doesn't behave as documented, and how does it misbehave?
When the audio tries to play, the following error is given

[just_audio_windows] Called setVolume
[just_audio_windows] Called setSpeed
[just_audio_windows] Called setPitch
[just_audio_windows] Called setSkipSilence
[just_audio_windows] Called setLoopMode
[just_audio_windows] Called setShuffleMode
[just_audio_windows] Called load

I'm getting the same error. If i try the audioplayers, the same error appears, simply with a different channel name.

Please provide a reproducible snippet. Make sure you are not calling the plugin from any isolate other than the main thread.

[TonyGnk]

A reproducible snippet from me:

class _MyStatefulWidgetState extends State<MyStatefulWidget> {
  @override
  initState() {
    super.initState();
    playWidgetSound();
 }

  playWidgetSound() async {
    //Player is global variable
    player.setAsset(songPath);
    player.play();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context){
  //Rest of the code
}

[bdlukaa]

What is the value of songPath? You need to add asset:/// before the path to play an asset.

just_audio_windows/just_audio_background/example/lib/main.dart

Lines 63 to 72 in d97eb5b

	AudioSource.uri(
	Uri.parse("asset:///audio/nature.mp3"),
	tag: MediaItem(
	id: '${_nextMediaId++}',
	album: "Public Domain",
	title: "Nature Sounds",
	artUri: Uri.parse(
	"https://media.wnyc.org/i/1400/1400/l/80/1/ScienceFriday_WNYCStudios_1400.jpg"),
	),
	),

[TonyGnk]

The value of songPath is assets/audio/song.mp3. It isn't an asset from the web.

[bdlukaa]

You need to add asset:/// as a prefix of your path to play audios from assets.

just_audio_windows/just_audio_background/example/lib/main.dart

Line 64 in d97eb5b

Uri.parse("asset:///audio/nature.mp3"),

[TonyGnk]

Ok, the problem has been solved for me. Thank you very much.

Please provide a reproducible snippet. Make sure you are not calling the plugin from any isolate other than the main thread.

final AudioPlayer player = AudioPlayer();
duration = await player.setUrl(urlFile, preload: false);
player.play();

[bdlukaa]

@mbfakourii what is the value of urlFile? For files, it is recommended to use the file: scheme.

[mbfakourii]

urlFile is a web address, for example
https://example.com/1.mp3

Are there any updates here? I get the same error on very first play, then it works as expected:

[just_audio_windows] Called setVolume
[just_audio_windows] Called setSpeed
[just_audio_windows] Called setPitch
[just_audio_windows] Called setSkipSilence
[just_audio_windows] Called setLoopMode
[just_audio_windows] Called setShuffleMode

On mobile it works as expected.

There is this issue with Flutter plug-ins on Windows. It happens with a few packages and have been known to be just a warning.

As some have reported above, the audio plays even with the error printed.

Note that this doesn't happen on all devices and not even all the time, which makes it hard to track and debug.

[amorenew]

the funny thing is that audio_player library have the same issue
bluefireteam/audioplayers#1635
I wish I knew what is needed to learn windows c++ applications but I can't find good resources for it

[labyte]

same error
