Audio Guide for Android

We create a media player instance that can play a music file when the Activity is loaded as following:
class AudioDemoActivity extends AppCompatActivity { protected MediaPlayer mMediaPlayer; @Override protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); this.setContentView(R.layout.activity_native_ad); // Create MediaPlayer Instance by Audio File in the res/raw Folder this.mMediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.background_theme); this.mMediaPlayer.start(); } } -
We create a native ad instance that will be loaded when
loadNativeAdis called. For testing purpose, we can fetch for a video test ad by initializing the placement ID withVID_HD_9_16_39S_APP_INSTALL#YOUR_PLACEMENT_ID. You should fill YOUR_PLACEMENT_ID with the one created from your app dashboard.
Please refer to How to Use Test Mode for more information.private NativeAd mNativeAd; protected void loadNativeAd() { NativeAd nativeAd = new NativeAd(this, "VID_HD_9_16_39S_APP_INSTALL#YOUR_PLACEMENT_ID"); // Initiate a request to load an ad with cache all media // and a listener to get notified when the ad was loaded. nativeAd.loadAd(NativeAd.MediaCacheFlag.ALL); nativeAd.loadAd( nativeAd.buildLoadAdConfig() .withAdListener(this) .withMediaCacheFlag(NativeAdBase.MediaCacheFlag.ALL) .build()); } -
Implement AudioDemoActivity with
AdListenerandMediaViewListener.
DeclaremAdCoverMediaViewproperty withMediaViewtype in order to show video ad.
WhenonAdLoadedis called toAdListener, setmNativeAdproperty tomAdCoverMediaViewproperty in order to render the video ad. Please refer to Native Ad Integration for more details about showing the native ad in your app.
ImplementonVolumeChangemethod defined inAdListener. When a video ad plays with sound, the volume will be greater than 0. The music file playing in your app can be paused. when the video ad is stopped, the volume will be 0 and your app can resume music file playing.class AudioDemoActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements AdListener, MediaViewListener { protected MediaView mAdCoverMediaView; /** * Ad Listener Implementation */ @Override public void onAdLoaded(Ad ad) { if (this.mNativeAd != null) { this.mNativeAd.unregisterView(); } this.mNativeAd = (NativeAd) ad; // Create native UI using the ad metadata. this.mAdCoverMediaView.setNativeAd(this.mNativeAd); this.mAdCoverMediaView.setListener(this); // Follow Audience Network Native Ad implementation for creating and rendering other ad assets including ad icon, ad title, ad CTA button and more. } /** * MediaViewListener Implementation */ @Override public void onVolumeChange(MediaView mediaView, float volume) { if (volume > 0) { // Pause music playing if video ad plays with sound this.mMediaPlayer.pause(); } else { // Resume music playing this.mMediaPlayer.start(); } } } -
For bringing optimal user experience for showing the rewarded video ad, you should implement
RewardedVideoAdListenerin your activity. You should pause the music file playing before presenting the rewarded video ad in full screen. After the rewarded video ad is closed, you should resume the music file playing. Please refer to Rewarded Video Ad Integration for more details about showing the native ad in your app.class AudioDemoActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements RewardedVideoAdListener { protected MediaPlayer mMediaPlayer; protected RewardedVideoAd mRewardedVideoAd; /** * RewardedVideoAdListener Implementation */ @Override public void onRewardedVideoClosed() { this.mMediaPlayer.start(); } @Override public void onAdLoaded(Ad ad) { this.mMediaPlayer.pause(); // Ad is ready, present it! this.mRewardedVideoAd.show(); } }
