Hello there, I am working on a little Service that plays ringtones/alarm-tones and such. What I want is to play a certain pattern with pauses and therefore I need to play such a tone once. At the moment I tried RingtoneManager/Ringtone and MediaPlayer. But both of them loop normal ringtones. It is described in this issue https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1320 that ogg files automatically loop if a certain tag in them is set.
What I also tried was to use SoundPool, but as I only have content://x/y URIs to these ringtones and no real filepath as SoundPool needs, this seems no choice either. Getting the filepath from the URI seems to be no way either, as this seems to be just a part of the above URI and no real filepath that points to a real file. These URIs come from the RingtonePreference, so I have no other as these. So, how do I play a ringtone just once, if the location is specified with a content-URI?
