Hello. I am attempting to display the music inside of my app in Now Playing. I've tried a few different methods and keep running into unknown issues. I'm new to Objective-C and Apple development so I'm at a loss of how to continue. Currently, I have an external call to viewDidLoad upon initialization. Then, when I'm ready to play the music, I call playMusic. I have it hardcoded to play an mp3 called "1". I believe I have all the signing set up as the music plays after I exit the app. However, there is nothing in Now Playing. There are no errors or issues that I can see while the app is running. This is the only file I have in Xcode relating to this feature. Please let me know where I'm going wrong or if there is another object I need to use! #import <Foundation/Foundation.h> #import <UIKit/UIKit.h> #import <MediaPlayer/MediaPlayer.h> #import <AVFoundation/AVFoundation.h> @interface ViewController : UIViewController <AVAudioPlayerDelegate> @property (nonatomic, strong) AVPlayer *player; @property (nonatomic, strong) MPRemoteCommandCenter *commandCenter; @property (nonatomic, strong) MPMusicPlayerController *controller; @property (nonatomic, strong) MPNowPlayingSession *nowPlayingSession; @end @implementation ViewController - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; NSLog(@"viewDidLoad started."); [self setupAudioSession]; [self initializePlayer]; [self createNowPlayingSession]; [self configureNowPlayingInfo]; NSLog(@"viewDidLoad completed."); } - (void)setupAudioSession { AVAudioSession *audioSession = [AVAudioSession sharedInstance]; NSError *setCategoryError = nil; if (![audioSession setCategory:AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback error:&setCategoryError]) { NSLog(@"Error setting category: %@", [setCategoryError localizedDescription]); } else { NSLog(@"Audio session category set."); } NSError *activationError = nil; if (![audioSession setActive:YES error:&activationError]) { NSLog(@"Error activating audio session: %@", [activationError localizedDescription]); } else { NSLog(@"Audio session activated."); } } - (void)initializePlayer { NSString *soundFilePath = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/base/game/%@",[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath], @"bgm/1.mp3"]; if (!soundFilePath) { NSLog(@"Audio file not found."); return; } NSURL *soundFileURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:soundFilePath]; self.player = [AVPlayer playerWithURL:soundFileURL]; NSLog(@"Player initialized with URL: %@", soundFileURL); } - (void)createNowPlayingSession { self.nowPlayingSession = [[MPNowPlayingSession alloc] initWithPlayers:@[self.player]]; NSLog(@"Now Playing Session created with players: %@", self.nowPlayingSession.players); } - (void)configureNowPlayingInfo { MPNowPlayingInfoCenter *infoCenter = [MPNowPlayingInfoCenter defaultCenter]; CMTime duration = self.player.currentItem.duration; Float64 durationSeconds = CMTimeGetSeconds(duration); CMTime currentTime = self.player.currentTime; Float64 currentTimeSeconds = CMTimeGetSeconds(currentTime); NSDictionary *nowPlayingInfo = @{ MPMediaItemPropertyTitle: @"Example Title", MPMediaItemPropertyArtist: @"Example Artist", MPMediaItemPropertyPlaybackDuration: @(durationSeconds), MPNowPlayingInfoPropertyElapsedPlaybackTime: @(currentTimeSeconds), MPNowPlayingInfoPropertyPlaybackRate: @(self.player.rate) }; infoCenter.nowPlayingInfo = nowPlayingInfo; NSLog(@"Now Playing info configured: %@", nowPlayingInfo); } - (void)playMusic { [self.player play]; [self createNowPlayingSession]; [self configureNowPlayingInfo]; } - (void)pauseMusic { [self.player pause]; [self configureNowPlayingInfo]; } @end
