Program explanation

This is a sample that enables background audio playback from a script.
You can turn the background playback function on and off via platform-specific functions or properties.
Please note that the setting methods for iOS and Android are different.

The music to be played is specified in the sample script and will be played automatically when the script starts to run.
The GUI for switching the audio content to be played is also implemented in the script's OnGUI function.

About the background audio playback script

Turn background playback on and off in platform-specific ways:

• iOS: Enable the feature with CriWare.CriAtomEx.EnableBackgroundPlayback_IOS and disable it with the CriWare.CriAtomEx.DisableBackgroundPlayback_IOS function.
• Android: enable/disable by setting a boolean value to CriWare.CriAtomServer.EnableBackgroundPlayback_ANDROID (true = enabled).

On platforms other than the one supported by the setting method, the setting will not function or affect the program.

In the sample, the functions are enabled and disabled in Start() and OnDestroy(), respectively.
Background playback works between the two function calls.
