  • the requests directed towards the audio playback may correspond to user actions, such as play, pause, skip, stop, skip next, skip previous, seek, fast forward, rewind, rating-related actions, shuffle and/or repeat requests.
  • the requests directed towards the audio playback may be to provide state information, such as playing, paused, stopped, fast forwarding, rewinding, buffering started, buffering stopped, track ready and/or track ended state.
  • the media service operates to launch an agent that provides the requests directed towards the audio playback.
  • the foreground application may be deactivated, with the media service continuing the audio playback in the background.
  • the media service may cause the agent to be re-launched as needed to obtain additional audio information, e.g., more tracks to play.

  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing various components in one example implementation.
  • a media service 102 plays back audio tracks as directed by a third party application 104 in conjunction with a player agent 106 (e.g., a “headless host” having no user interface) as described below.
  • a player agent 106 e.g., a “headless host” having no user interface
  • Communication between the application 104 and/or player agent 106 and the media service 102 is via a background audio service 108 (BackgroundAudioPlayer) that includes an API set.
  • BackgroundAudioPlayer BackgroundAudioPlayer
  • the background audio service 108 supports basic playback and a custom codec mode.
  • the playback mode can help the device save battery, and makes coding of the application relatively simple.
  • an application can perform more powerful operations, such as support proprietary DRM (digital rights management) or proprietary codecs.
  • the application 104 calls into the background audio service 108 with a request to play audio.
  • the media service 102 is notified, which in turn communicates with an application instance manager 110 (a system service) to launch the player agent 106 .
  • the communication between the media service 102 and the application instance manager 110 requests that resources be reserved for the agent 106 , and notifies the application instance manager 110 that the player agent 106 is a time-critical resource (so that in typical operating circumstances, the resource is not subject to interruptions that if present provide a poor user experience).
  • the player agent 106 is independent of the application 104 , as either one may remain operational while the other is not, both may operate at the same time, or neither may be operational at a given time.
  • the player agent 106 makes the actual playback requests and other playback-related requests (e.g., skip, rewind and so forth) on behalf of the application 104 .
  • This allows the application 104 to be removed from the foreground and so forth.
  • the requests may be shared between the agent and application, with the application choosing which requests it keeps for itself, and which are delegated to the agent, for example. Note that having a player agent be responsible for handling requests provides an advantage in the requests may originate via the application or other system services, and thus there are no conflicts, and the user may use the system even after the application has been terminated or otherwise deactivated.
  • the media service 102 via a media service proxy/translator 112 notifies the application instance manager 110 on various events, such as on a user action and any play state change; (note that the media service proxy/translator 112 alternatively may be incorporated into the media service 102 ).
  • Example user actions include play, pause, skip, stop, skip next, skip previous, seek, fast forward, rewind, rating-related actions, shuffle and/or repeat.
  • Example play states include playing, paused, stopped, fast forwarding, rewinding, buffering started, buffering stopped, track ready and/or track ended.
  • the media service 102 instructs the application instance manager 110 to re-launch the player agent 106 if needed; note that this allows the application instance manager 110 to leave the player agent 106 in memory if desired, to put the player agent 106 into a dormant state (retained in memory but unable to run code until activated), or fully terminate the player agent 106 and re-launch an instance as needed.
  • the media service and the player agent 106 may communicate (via the background audio service 108 ) to perform further actions, such as to request a next track, notify the agent that the user has performed some action related to audio, e.g., by interfacing with the application 104 or a system-provided UVC (universal volume control) 114 , and so forth.
  • UVC universal volume control
  • FIG. 1 Also shown in FIG. 1 is background audio support/integration with existing and future operating system user experiences, including UVC (universal volume control) 114 integration, a native first party player 116 (Zune®) experience, and integration with a program 118 via an XNA/SilverlightTM environment 120 .
  • UVC universal volume control
  • Zune® native first party player
  • XNA and Silverlight® may use a native playback API to perform audio playback, and media service playback coordinates the request from Silverlight® and XNA.
  • This design enables application to use both XNA and Silverlight® code in one process.
  • Other aspects include a “Nowplaying” token, phone call interruption, and others.
  • the mobile device may output the audio in any suitable form.
  • the mobile device may output the audio via internal speakers, via a headphone jack to a headset, via wireless or wired communication to another device (e.g., over Wi-Fi to an external sound system), and the like.
  • the media service 102 may be considered as providing input source information to a sink.
  • FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an alternative configuration, including a control agent 206 and a source agent 222 .
  • the control agent is similar to the player agent and is not described again.
  • the source agent comprises a code/logic that is configured to support a non-natively supported media format, such as streamed or progressively downloaded from an associated source.
  • the source agent 222 may be provided by an internet audio service, music service or the like, and in general is configured to handle decryption of encrypted content, decompression of compressed content, decoding of custom encoding formats, custom protocols, and so forth.
  • a source agent may handle one or more such custom formats and the like.
  • the source agent 222 is needed to remain operational to provide the properly formatted content, and thus is not deactivated by the application instance manager (except possibly under extraordinary circumstances).
  • an application 204 makes a request via the background audio service API to the media service 102 to play content, as represented by the arrows labeled ( 1 a ) and ( 1 b ) in FIG. 2 .
  • the media service 102 communicates with the application instance manager (the arrow labeled ( 2 )), including to reserve resources and launch a control agent 206 , similar to as described in FIG. 1 (but without a proxy/translator shown).
  • the control agent 206 is launched as represented by the arrow labeled ( 3 ).
  • the control agent 206 When launched, the control agent 206 makes requests to the media service 102 (arrow ( 4 )), including a request for a particular source agent 222 .
  • the source agent may have been previous loaded into the device and maintained thereon, or downloaded on demand.
  • the application instance manager launches the source agent 222 .
  • the source agent 222 requests that the media service play a track (arrows ( 7 a ) and ( 7 b )), informing the media service 102 that the source agent 222 will provide (e.g., stream) the properly formatted content.
  • the source agent responds to the control agent 206 that the track is ready (arrows ( 8 a ) and ( 8 b ).
  • the source agent 222 provides the properly formatted audio content (arrows ( 9 a ) and ( 9 b ) to a playing component of the media service 102 , (DShow 226 , incorporated into or coupled to the media service 102 ).
  • the audio content is buffered via a shared memory 228 , which is efficient as further data transfer/copying is avoided.
  • the application 104 may implement a playback experience by sending a track (e.g., a uniform resource identifier/URI or such as an HTTP URL) to the service 102 and asking the service 102 to play it.
  • a track e.g., a uniform resource identifier/URI or such as an HTTP URL
  • the service 102 is responsible for parts of playback (reading/downloading/streaming content, parsing container formats, content decryption, audio stream decoding, and so forth).
  • the application 204 in conjunction with the source agent 222 acquires the content via any arbitrary mechanism (such as downloading, streaming, reading from a local store, or dynamic generation such as for text-to-speech) and performs arbitrary processing as needed, such as decryption or decoding, before passing it to the native service.
  • any arbitrary mechanism such as downloading, streaming, reading from a local store, or dynamic generation such as for text-to-speech
  • arbitrary processing such as decryption or decoding
  • the device system provides a UVC 114 control/user interface by which the user is able to control audio playback independent of the application 104 or 204 .
  • the user presses a hardware button to bring up the UVC 114 control/user interface.
  • the application may disable, limit or otherwise integrate with the UVC, such as to show its controls instead of or in addition to the UVC's controls, add text or images (e.g., album art) to the UVC user interface, and so forth.
  • the background audio service API 108 enables an application to implement its own logic when it receives user interaction. User interactions with the UVC system user experience (such as skipping a track) are handled by the application. Applications have the opportunity to disable/enable the UVC playback control button, and/or change song metadata such as title, artist, and album art.
  • the media service 102 sends notifications to application foreground code, first party background code 116 and the UVC 114 when the playback state changes or other pertinent events occur to ensure the components have the correct metadata and playback status.
  • the application is able to query the background service.
  • This notification design enables applications, the UVC 114 , and the first party player 116 to obtain correct playback status and metadata, without introducing significant, unnecessary cross-process traffic.
  • the user may interface with the audio via the UVC 114 .
  • the user may increase or decrease the volume, pause the track, skip the track and so forth.
  • the media service 102 is instructed by the agent (or application) via a “Nowplaying” token or the like as to what may be displayed on the UVC user interface, e.g., text (title, artist, album name and/or the like), an image, a logo, and so forth.
  • the UVC 114 communicates (e.g., directly) with the media service 102 , including to subscribe to status changes (e.g., playback changes, such as play/pause/stopped play states as well as item changed (track switching) notifications, whereby UVC pulls the relevant data, such as title/artist/album from media services for display) and the like.
  • status changes e.g., playback changes, such as play/pause/stopped play states as well as item changed (track switching) notifications
  • UVC pulls the relevant data, such as title/artist/album from media services for display
  • the application/agent the media service has information on what is playing now, and when the track changes, will instruct the UVC 114 to update the title (new track name). If the media service queues multiple tracks, the application/agent need not be involved until the queue needs to be updated/changed.
  • the application/agent may send a playlist of multiple tracks. This may be more efficient, to avoid communicating with (including possibly launching) the agent for each new track.
  • each media item (e.g., audio track) is associated with attributes in a media control flag that the application/agent may set, and which control what the UVC 114 is able to do with respect to a track.
  • the application may specify that a track (such as an advertisement, for example) cannot be skipped.
  • Another application may let a user skip some limited number of tracks before having to listen to one fully, before again allowing skipping.
  • the media control flag includes attributes to allow/deny skip next, skip previous, fast forward, pause, and rewind.
  • the media service when there is incoming call, the media service is notified.
  • the background music volume is decreased, and a ringtone sound is audibly mixed with the background music.
  • a user may configure the relative volume levels. If user presses ‘ignore’, the ringtone stops and the background audio will continue playing, e.g., at its previous volume level. If a user answers, the audio is paused (if allowed by the media control flag, or silenced if not, for example). Thus, the mixed audio output signal and ringtone continues until the call attempt ends in some way, e.g., is ignored (by explicit user action or until the call attempt terminates) or is answered (by the user or automatically). When a user-answered call ends, the audio resumes playing.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 along with the following brief scenarios illustrate how third party applications can use the managed background audio playback API.
  • HTTP URLs are the URI of choice in the following examples.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show basic building blocks and a data/control flow of a scenario for media playback.
  • the application 304 and agent 306 have their own isolated storage 330
  • the media service has its own data store 332 , which may include a queue.
  • the following labeled steps correspond to the circled numerals in FIG. 3 :
  • Application creates service request (“play this track and call me back when you need the next one”)
  • Service asks system to call the agent to get the next track
  • Agent performs logic and provides the next track information
  • the application 304 operates to contact its servers on the web 334 . This typically includes authenticating the user and retrieving any user data. For this example, assume the content to be played is represented by an HTTP URL that points to some server. When the application 304 decides that it is time to begin playing music, the application may perform the following example steps:
  • the background service 108 calls the media service 102 to create a queue for the application 304 . This call creates the queue if one does not already exist for this application.
  • the application 304 checks to see if the background audio service 108 has a current track. (For this example, assume there is not already a queue)
  • the application 304 performs its operations to get a track from the server (which may include authenticating the user, and so forth).
  • the application 304 creates an AudioTrack object (or other suitable data structure), passing in the URL, track name, and any other metadata as desired.
  • the application 304 passes the new AudioTrack object to the background audio service 108 via an appropriate function call.
  • the background audio service 108 creates a new media item via an appropriate function call.
  • the background audio service 108 queries the given AudioTrack for the URI which it sets on the item.
  • the background audio service 108 adds the track to the media service/queue.
  • the application calls the play function of the background audio service 108 .
  • the background audio service 108 initiates playback by calling the media service.
  • the application receives events it is interested in.
  • the application destroys its background audio service 108 object, and the media service continues to play the track.
  • Resuming playback is another scenario.
  • a user may tap on the power button to turn the screen on. Without unlocking the phone the user may push the volume up key to bring up the UVC, and taps the play button and the station corresponding to the application starts playing again, e.g., the same song where it was stopped earlier.
  • the following is an example:
  • the agent receives an “OnUserAction callback.” This callback's parameters provide a reference to the current track, with the action being “Play”. Assume that there is no current track because the queue was destroyed at some point.
  • the agent notices that there is no current track, whereby the agent goes to its persistent store to read in the title, source, and position of the last track it played.
  • the agent creates a new AudioTrack and sets the metadata accordingly.
  • the agent sets where the audio is to resume by calling a “progress” function of the background audio service 108 , e.g., “BackgroundAudioPlayer.Progress.”
  • the agent passes the new AudioTrack object to the BackgroundAudioPlayer.
  • the agent calls background audio service 108 .
  • Resuming applications (get queue state) is another example, where a user decides to double-check a song title that he or she cannot remember via the application.
  • the user unlocks the device, navigates to the application list, and taps on the application icon.
  • the application launches and displays the currently playing artist and the current song playback time counter.
  • An “Events” label may be selected, which for example shows that a concert with the artist is upcoming. The following is an example:
  • the application creates an instance of the background audio service 108 .
  • the background audio service 108 checks with the media service to see if there is already an application queue.
  • the media service reports that there is a background queue for this application.
  • the background audio service 108 retrieves the media item value for the currently playing track and creates a new AudioTrack object that contains the media item value.
  • the application checks to see if there is a current track, which in this example there is.
  • the application gets the current track and queries for the title.
  • the AudioTrack object reaches the media service and obtains the available metadata. Then it returns the title.
  • the application calls a function (BackgroundAudioPlayer.PlayState) to get the current play state (Playing).
  • the application calls a function (AudioTrack.Duration) to get the track's duration.
  • the application calls a function (BackgroundAudioPlayer.Progress) to get the current position.
  • the application updates its UI with this information.
  • Switching playback between applications also may be performed. While a song/station is still playing via the previous application, the user may navigate into the first party media player (e.g., Zune®) application, for example, and taps on podcasts. The user taps the play button next to a new episode, causing the previous station to automatically stop playing and the new podcast playback to start.
