This's a simple Phaser audio example. It works well on my Android web browser. However, it's muted after porting to Android app by Phonegap cloud build.
I know how to play sound (and loop) in Phonegap app (How to loop a audio in phonegap?) but don't know how to apply it into the Phaser JS framework.
Here's the ported app. I can install and run it but without sound. Do I miss something or Phonegap Cloud Build does support the WebAudio in Phaser JS?

UPDATE 2015-12-01
Here is my completed source code. It has both .mp3 and .ogg sound files. You can play them on Android native browser (tested on 4.4.4 Samsung E5).
Source: https://github.com/nguoianphu/phaser-sound-complete-phonegap
Here is the ported app on Phonegap. It can display the screen but can't play sounds.

You are trying to play the audio with the webview library. It is likely using the HTML5 API for audio or webaudio. If it is neither of these, then you need to ask the author.
Next, it is not best practice to use external source (http:). Your assests (javascript, css, audio files, etc) should live on the device. If you load files from the web, then the sound quality could be poor (or the audio may not play at all - see whitelist below). Load from the device.
Android 4.4.4 is Kitkat. The standard webview library was exchanged for the chromium version. This means your audio library might be confused about this or you need to give the library knowledge about this library. This also means your code may not work on devices before 4.4.4. (Mostly, because you cannot test it.)
The link you point to is likely using the core media plugin, even though they dont say so. In addition, the post is over 3 years old. Many thing have changed since them. NOTE: you have installed the media plugin in your config.xml. This is likely why your loop works.
You should start over. You've made many errors. In addition, to all that you have, You will need to implement the whitelist plugin (if you are going to import files, or talk to the network).
FIRST TRY this sample app - example plays on Android and iOS. You can download the Android version and test it. The iOS version requires I have your UUID compiled in.
There are 16 audio plugins you can choose from. I know a few do real time audio playback and have better control than the "core" plugin.
You should read:

UPDATE: 2015-12-01 - 2am Previously, I had forgotten to add a wild-card (*) to the CSP meta tag. I am now including this. This meta tag should be added to the header of the index.html file that is playing the audio.
NOTE YOUR APP IS NOW INSECURE. IT IS UP TO YOU TO SECURE YOUR APP.

The audio is now working on my Android LG Leon/Android 5.1.1
Truthfully, I would never do this on my own, but your code had enough working that after I tested it on my firefox(v34) browser, I was fairly certain it would work.
UPDATE: 2016-04-15
The code has been removed. Ask in the comments, if you need code.
There should be enough code in place for you to work off of.

I have used the attached code to detect mobile devices before but it is not working (for obvious reasons) for Windows 8 mobile phones and any of the Surface versions. I don't know the proper userAgent for Windows 8 mobile phones and Surface. What needs to change in order to be able to detect a Surface or a Windows 8 mobile phone? Any help will be greatly appreciated ! Thanks a ton in advance.
function detect() {
var uagent = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
var mobile = false;
var search_strings = [
"iphone",
"ipod",
"ipad",
"series60",
"windows ce",
"windows7phone",
"w7p",
"windows8phone",
"w8p",
"blackberry","
];
for (i in search_strings) {
if (uagent.search(search_strings[i]) > -1)
mobile = true;
}
return mobile;
}
if (detect()){
window.location = "mobile";
}
Use RegExp for search in User Agent, this cover 99% of modern devices:
/Mobile|iP(hone|od|ad)|Android|BlackBerry|IEMobile|Symbian|Opera\sM(obi|ini)|Blazer|Dolfin|Dolphin|UCBrowser/.test(navigator.userAgent);
Also you can use service wurfl.io - it will return an object in javascript with flag is device mobile or not. It use wurfl cloud with thousands of known UA.
Trying to embed a Vimeo video into my website and I have put about 5 different languages into the CC of the video on Vimeo. However I don't want the user to have to change their language in the CC drop down in the Vimeo embed, I would like to assign it in HTML/JavaScript (using geolocation to select their base language) then they can change their CC language accordingly once the video has started playing.
You can use the enableTextTrack function on a player initialized by the JS API provided by Vimeo:
// Select with the DOM API
var iframe = document.querySelector('iframe');
var iframePlayer = new Vimeo.Player(iframe);
player.enableTextTrack('en').then(function(track) {
// track.language = the iso code for the language
// track.kind = 'captions' or 'subtitles'
// track.label = the human-readable label
}).catch(function(error) {
switch (error.name) {
case 'InvalidTrackLanguageError':
// no track was available with the specified language
break;
case 'InvalidTrackError':
// no track was available with the specified language and kind
break;
default:
// some other error occurred
break;
}
});
More information on the github of Vimeo player JS API: https://github.com/vimeo/player.js#enabletexttracklanguage-string-kind-string-promiseobject-invalidtracklanguageerrorinvalidtrackerrorerror
We don't have this yet, but we do plan on offering some way to do it with an embed parameter and through the JavaScript API in the future.
I am porting my game from cocos2d (obj-c) to cocos2d-x 2.x (c++) but i am really struggling with getting the social features to work. Is it possible in any way to use the code below which works flawless in native objective-c and cocos2d.
Take screenshot
- (UIImage*) takeScreenShot
{
[CCDirector sharedDirector].nextDeltaTimeZero = YES;
CGSize winSize = [CCDirector sharedDirector].winSize;
CCLayerColor* blankLayer = [CCLayerColor layerWithColor:ccc4(255, 255, 255, 0) width:winSize.width height:winSize.height];
blankLayer.position = ccp(winSize.width/2, winSize.height/2);
CCRenderTexture* rtx = [CCRenderTexture renderTextureWithWidth:winSize.width height:winSize.height];
[rtx begin];
[blankLayer visit];
//[[[CCDirector sharedDirector] runningScene] visit];
[layer_main visit];
[rtx end];
return [rtx getUIImage];
}
Post on facebook
- (void)share_score_facebook: (id) sender{
if (SYSTEM_VERSION_LESS_THAN(#"6.0")){
[AppVariables showAlert:#"Outdated iOS" message:#"You must have atleast iOS 6.0 to use the social features.\nPlease update to a newer iOS."];
return;
}
[[CCDirector sharedDirector] pause];
[[CCDirector sharedDirector] stopAnimation];
AppController *app = (AppController*) [[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
UIImage * screenshot = [self takeScreenShot];
SLComposeViewController *faceBookPost = [SLComposeViewController composeViewControllerForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook];
[faceBookPost setInitialText:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Game on! Just scored %d on Game. Can you Beat it?",total_score]];
[faceBookPost addImage:screenshot];
[faceBookPost addURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"URL_HERE"]];
[[app navController] presentViewController:faceBookPost animated:YES completion:nil];
faceBookPost.completionHandler = ^(SLComposeViewControllerResult result)
{
[[CCDirector sharedDirector] resume];
[[CCDirector sharedDirector] startAnimation];
[[app navController] dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
};
}
You can compile any Objective-C code with cocos2d-x, but you need modify your code to adapt for cocos2d-x API. You want to take a screenshot and post it to Facebook, right? How about using the following instead of your Objective-C code?
Cocos2d-x v3.2-alpha0 Released! - Added utils::captureScreen to take screeshot
v3.2-alpha0 ccUtils.cpp seems it is able to work on earlier version of cocos2d-x
Screw - aims to bring native Facebook SDK functionalities to cocos2d-x
i'm developing an application for both desktop and mobile devices and would like to use the same code base for each build.
i want to employ cacheAsBitmapMatrix on some of my display objects, but cacheAsBitmapMatrix throws an error if it's included in an AIR application with a device profile other than mobileDevice or extendedMobileDevice.
something like the following would be ideal:
if (cacheAsBitmapMatrix.isSupported)
myDisplayObject.cacheAsBitmapMatrix = new Matrix();
update using try/catch:
try {myDisplayObject.cacheAsBitmapMatrix = new Matrix();}
catch(error:Error) {}
finally {myDisplayObject.cacheAsBitmap = true;}
update:
except for television profiles, this should work as well to distinguish between mobile and desktop:
//Resoslve Profile
if (Capabilities.os.indexOf("Windows") > -1 || Capabilities.os.indexOf("Mac") > -1 || Capabilities.os.indexOf("Linux") > -1)
trace("Desktop Profile");
else
trace("Mobile Profile");
update 2:
it seems the easiest way, and perhaps the most common way to determine the profile at runtime is to call:
NativeWindow.isSupported;
from the flash.display.NativeWindow documentation:
AIR profile support: This feature is
supported on all desktop operating
systems, but is not supported on
mobile devices or AIR for TV devices.
You can test for support at run time
on desktop devices using the
NativeWindow.isSupported property. See
AIR Profile Support for more
information regarding API support
across multiple profiles.
update 3:
while testing this on the BlackBerry PlayBook simulator, NativeWindow was supported. i haven't tested this on the device to know if it's was just supported on the simulator or not. i've since started using the following to determine the difference between mobile and desktop profiles:
if (
(Capabilities.os.toLowerCase().indexOf("mac") == -1) &&
(Capabilities.os.toLowerCase().indexOf("windows") == -1) &&
(Capabilities.os.toLowerCase().indexOf("linux") == -1)
)
deviceIsMobile = true;
This document specifies device capabilities for different profiles. Since cacheAsBitmapMatrix has no availability getter listed, you'll need to check it yourself once. It must be easy to do with try/catch block.
Edit: I'll try to illustrate what I meant under "check once":
public class Capabilities2
{
private static var cacheAsBitmapMatrixChecked:Boolean;
private static var cacheAsBitmapMatrixStatus:Boolean;
public static function get cacheAsBitmapMatrixIsSupported():Boolean
{
if (cacheAsBitmapMatrixChecked) return cacheAsBitmapMatrixStatus;
var test:Sprite = new Sprite();
try
{
text.cacheAsBitmapMatrix = new Matrix();
cacheAsBitmapMatrixStatus = true;
}
catch (error:Error)
{
cacheAsBitmapMatrixStatus = false;
}
cacheAsBitmapMatrixChecked = true;
return cacheAsBitmapMatrixStatus;
}
}
Get current profile might be cleaner solution, but I don't know how to do it. Another 'idea': using document above, test capabilities and deduce profile from results, like in Einstein riddle :)
For runtime checking if your application is on mobile or on web you can also use "Capabilities.playerType"
if (Capabilities.playerType == "Desktop") {
trace ("running on mobile");
}
else {
trace ("running on web");
}
