Class AudioPlayer

java.lang.Object
  player.AudioPlayer

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable

public class AudioPlayer
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Runnable

A simple Playerthread to play audiofiles. The player can play a single MapItem or a list of items (see MapItemList). Depending on the configuration the player streams audiofiles from a server or plays them from the device. The player can also act as a remote control, meaning instead of playling a piece of music, the player will trigger another device to play the song.
