Apps Can't play audio

[kevindroidX]

Hi,

My layout shows up correctly, which I borrowed from the Android Developer's site, but the audio won't play. Perhaps I'm using the wrong context input to MediaCenter.create( ... ) ?

Here's my SpellThis class and main.xml is below

public class SpellThis extends Activity implements View.OnClickListener {
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        Button submitButton, replayButton;
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        
        submitButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.submitButton);
        replayButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.replayButton);
        MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(getBaseContext(), R.raw.mitochondria); // raw/mitochondria.mp3 is a working mp3
        mp.start(); 
   }
}

main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/label"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Type here:"/>
    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/entry"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@android:drawable/editbox_background"
        android:layout_below="@id/label"/>
    <Button
        android:id="@+id/submitButton"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@id/entry"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
        android:text="Submit" />
    <Button
        android:id="@+id/replayButton"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/submitButton"
        android:layout_alignTop="@id/submitButton"
        android:text="Replay sound" />
</RelativeLayout>

Thanks!

I use "this" instead of "getBaseContext"

so it'll become

MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.mitochondria);

try it and tell me
