playing a PlayList

[t-m-z]

I would like to use the Audioplayer to play a list of MP3-Files.
Hence I have to iterate over the list.
My idea is to check the PlayerState and if the player is not playing I increase the index and play the next song.
However this does not work.

I would appreciate a hint.

Kind regards

The code looks like
...
Future getPlayerState() async {
setState(() => state = player.state);
}
...
PlayerState state;
PlayerState PLAYING = PlayerState.playing;
...
IconButton(
icon: Icons.play_arrow,
onPressed: () {
index = 0;
while (index < _playlist.length) {
if (getPlayerState() != PLAYING ) {
player.play(_playlist[index]);
index++;
}
}
);
...

You only play the first song, as the play statement does not wait until the song is finished. I would recommend to use the player.onComplete callback to start a new track, when the current one has finished, without a while loop.

Thanks for this hint. I tried to understand the doc but failed. However, I found a code snippet from Walter — 27.06.2022 17:28 on your discord server which helped me:
