I am working on application in which i have to change the lock screen wallpaper without playing audio in background through application programmatically. I have done with audio in background but is there any way i can do through application. There is an app on appstore here is the link https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sticky-notes-hd-with-bump/id364874025?mt=8 I dont know how it is possible.

I checked on the library, but it doesn't seem to have an option for removing the audio focus. Is there any workaround/technique to do so?
I'm trying to play music in a Webview without interrupting a background app sound.
I am using RMYouTubeExtractor to play youtube video inside my app in a MPMoviePlayerController.
I need to play the sound of the video (and show the thumbnail of the video on the lock screen) if the phone is locked or the app is in the background.
Is there any way to do that ?
Please help.
Thank you.
I've integrated opentok ios sdk in my iOS 7 app, it is working fine, except this problem:
During video chat if I don't access iPhone for 5-10 seconds..then my app moves into background, causing viewer at other end to hear only audio. Video is disabled after app goes to background state.
I've observed same thing with their official example
https://github.com/opentok/opentok-ios-sdk/tree/master/samples/OpenTokFullTutorial
How can I avoid my app going to background while video chat is ongoing. Skype is working fine in this case, I want to achieve same thing.
What you want to do is prevent the iPhone from going to sleep. To do this, you cant try this:
[UIApplication sharedApplication].idleTimerDisabled = YES;
Here is iOS documentation on idleTimerDisabled
If you don't want the app going into background at all (like when the user taps on home button), you can opt to kill the app when it's not running instead of having it run in the background. To do that, check out iOS guide on opting out of background execution
If you do not want your app to run in the background at all, you can
explicitly opt out of background by adding the
UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend key (with the value YES) to your app’s
Info.plist file. When an app opts out, it cycles between the
not-running, inactive, and active states and never enters the
background or suspended states. When the user presses the Home button
to quit the app, the applicationWillTerminate: method of the app
delegate is called and the app has approximately 5 seconds to clean up
and exit before it is terminated and moved back to the not-running
state.
Hope that helped!
I have seen the same question but not have the right solution, so I decided to post my own problem.
I'm using an MPMoviePlayerController for playing video in iOS app. I can make it to play in background within my app or even when user tap on Home button (play in background).
The problem is when MPMoviePlayerController is playing, press home button on iPhone, make the app enter
background. Then tap the app's icon to make the app enter foreground, the MPMoviePlayerController's view will be black screen, audio still continue, only video screen cannot see anything.
This is NOT happen if in background, MPMoviePlayerController play the next video, when come foreground from background it works perfectly. And it also not happen in iOS6 or before.
So in inclusion the problem occurred when play the itself video in iOS7
How to make the MPMoviePlayerController's video shows immediately when app came to foreground?
Many thanks for any help!
I have an application that plays video from local disk and when a second screen is connected (through AV composite cable) it switch the movie view to the external screen. this is working fine so far. what I want is, when the user press the home button and the app goes to background mode; I want to continue playing the video in the second screen while the app is running in the background mode. this works for audio, as I have set my application to continue play audio in background mode and it is working fine: the audio continue to play in the background mode fine. now is it possible to continue play video as well, and how?
This is not possible. It is outside of the scope of an iOS app to continue powering a screen while it is in the background.
