kAudioSessionCategory_MediaPlayback

For playing recorded music or other sounds that are central to the successful use of your app.

Declaration

var kAudioSessionCategory_MediaPlayback: Int { get }

Discussion

When using this category, your app audio continues with the Silent switch set to silent or when the screen locks. (The switch is called the Ring/Silent switch on iPhone.)

This category normally prevents audio from other apps from mixing with your app’s audio. To allow mixing for this category, use the kAudioSessionProperty_OverrideCategoryMixWithOthers property.

This category is equivalent to the playback category provided in the AVFoundation framework.
