Delphi XE Can't play sounds on Android device

Question

I use TMediaPlayer and the following procedure:

procedure TForm1.PlayAudio(ResourceID: string);
var
  ResStream: TResourceStream;
  TmpFile: string;
begin
  ResStream := TResourceStream.Create(HInstance, ResourceID, RT_RCDATA);
  try

    //TmpFile := TPath.Combine(TPath.GetTempPath, 'tmp.wav');
    TmpFile :=(System.IOUtils.TPath.GetDocumentsPath + System.SysUtils.PathDelim + 'tmp.wav');

    ResStream.Position := 0;
    ResStream.SaveToFile(TmpFile);
    MediaPlayer1.FileName := TmpFile;

    MediaPlayer1.Play;

  finally
    ResStream.Free;
  end;
end;

To play sounds from my resources like this: PlayAudio('Resource_1'); which are .wav and .mp3

It works fine on Windows but when I deploy it on Android it won't play any sounds, and I still can't find well explained way to play sounds on android from my resources. What is the best way to do so?

Answer 1

Thanks @RemyLebeau for pointing out that I need to find my path to resources using

TPath.Combine(TPath.GetDocumentsPath, 'filename')  { Internal }
TPath.Combine(TPath.GetSharedDocumentsPath, 'filename')  { External }

if Im deploying to android, but the files still couldn't run, and then I realized that I was using .mp3 and .wav. I converted them to .3gp and now sound works just fine on android.
