Is there a way to play a playlist or MP3 files in a folder? The Play/Stop sound plays only one MP3 file at time. I would like to play 144 MP3 files.

@fblegfbleg,
Incidentally, if the playback works, the MP3 order of your worship may disturb you.
In that case, since m3u8 is a text file, open m3u8 with a text editor application.
You should see a list of mp3s and the player will read them in order from the top. By replacing them, you can change the playback order.

Yes, it is working perfectly.
I have another, the attached macro, sound macro when plays it stops the intent playlist.
Please, i would like to fix this issue, or if there are another ways, options, or alternatives. I also wish that the MX player playlist intent would be adopted to Xplayer and the music player as well.

This is promising, but unfortunately, I don't know how it would work for my 144 MP3 files, as you know, it is tedious to add 144 files one by one.

Shell Script: ls -t /storage/emulated/0/...

Hi, @fblegfbleg,

How is the goal of this Dhikr macro to work?
I checked it out while I was at work....

#1 Play several audio files, including Al-Azkar, at 08:07 every morning.
#2 Play a random Athker audio file every 30 minutes from 09:00 to 17:57 every day.
#3 When the device's home button is long-tapped, the audio file stops playing and an audible notification is given that it has stopped.

I have not yet established a status image of the audio file stopping playback in the middle of the process. Apologies.

Is it like a Turkish semer?
That is FANA!

Great!

I have 4 players already instantly.

1. XPlayer - Video Player

2. MX player

3. Music player

4. Music player

So, it is to avoid extra apps.

With MX you have IMHO the best video player for Android. With Poweramp you would have equally IMHO the best audio player (I tested a lot some time ago and found nothing better). On my phone Poweramp has no problem with around 50k songs!

@LinerSeven,

your macro description is perfect.

The issue is that the #2 Play a random Athker audio file every 30 minutes from 09:00 to 17:57 every day. when played it stops other playing audio.

This random Athkar is mostly short ones less than 1 minute, so if another audio playing it should not stop.

I hope this clear enough.

Best regards,
fbleg.

This is against the macro concept.

The MP3 file should played 30minutes one at time, so listing MP3 files would not work.

Of course you would need to use Text Manipulation: Split to array. Then Iterate Dictionary/Array. Simple!. No problem at all.

I don't understand this.

My problem is that the sound player stops other players.

Can you explain how your model can solve the issue?

 

[md_sgf]

I don't quite understand what you are wanting to do.

Is there already audio playing when you want to play audio file every 30 minutes?

 

[fblegfbleg]

Yes. And I don't want the played audio stop.

The underlying issue is audio stopped not any other issue with the given macro. So, I am wondering how to achieve this.

 

[md_sgf]

You might be able to use something in Control Media action to restart audio.

I have No idea.

There is a setting in Android to allow multiple apps to play audio in parallel, however MacroDroid should do that by default so it seems to be caused by the other music player.

 

[md_sgf]

For example Media Play: Simulate Media Button. You can select the audio app.

This is "*the perfect*" player I found, its very suitable for my purpose. But it has an issue that it stops another players.

Are you wanting to play two audio at same time??
If so, then (also) using Tasker does it (I can play audio via MacroDroid (Open File) AND audio via Tasker (Music Play)). But both MacroDroid and Tasker needs to be used.

Automate is free, but Play sound lowers currently playing audio temporarily (but doesn't stop it). Bit if 1st audio is played in Automate, 2nd audio stops it (& doesn't resume). Tasker is better for this.

I have yet to find a solution to my ...

@md_sgf's idea is very good.

However, considering that installing an additional Tasker would be a burden for the questioner and the macros would be complicated, I think that should be a priority to be solved in Macrodroid.

The issue could be solved if the situation where one application occupies the playback hardware of the device despite using separate playback applications for audio playback at the same time could be dealt with.

The issue would be solved by playing audio with MacroDroid (possibly on a different audio channel), but if the player you currently use pauses the audio when it plays, I'm not sure you can use a second player at the same time.

Hi, @fblegfbleg,

When I created the recipe as shown in the attached concept macro this thread, I was able to play multiple audio files at the same time, as shown in the Vimeo video below.

Is that a desirable situation for you?

I need to play 144 MP3 files so static filename probably will not fit, I guess.
