I have written a simple class to play audio files in a simple game. It works fine for small sounds like a gunshot or explosion, but when I tried to use it for background music I got this error: 'Failed to allocate clip data: Requested buffer too large.' I am assuming this means that the file is too large, but how can I get around this? Source:
import java.io.File;
import javax.sound.sampled.AudioInputStream;
import javax.sound.sampled.AudioSystem;
import javax.sound.sampled.Clip;
public class Sound{
private Clip clip;
public Sound(String filepath){
System.out.println(filepath);
File file = new File(filepath);
try {
clip = AudioSystem.getClip();
AudioInputStream inputStream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(file);
clip.open(inputStream);
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
}
}
public void play(){
System.out.println("play");
if(clip.isActive()){
clip.stop();
}
clip.setFramePosition(0);
clip.start();
}
public void stop(){
clip.stop();
}
public void loop(){
if(!clip.isActive()){
clip.setFramePosition(0);
clip.loop(Clip.LOOP_CONTINUOUSLY);
}else{
System.out.println("ALREADY PLAYING");
}
}
public boolean getActive(){return clip.isActive();}
}
Use BigClip. It is a class I put together to play MP3s of 12-18 minutes (or more1).
It requires the mp3plugin.jar on the run-time class-path to actually load MP3 format sound, but that is not the point. The point is:
BigClip will load sound files to the maximum memory the JVM will allow before OutOfMemoryError.import java.awt.Component;

class BigClipExample {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
URL url = new URL("http://pscode.org/media/leftright.wav");
BigClip clip = new BigClip();
AudioInputStream ais = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(url);
clip.open(ais);
clip.start();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "BigClip.start()");
clip.loop(4);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "BigClip.loop(4)");
clip.setFastForward(true);
clip.loop(8);

/** An implementation of the javax.sound.sampled.Clip that is designed
to handle Clips of arbitrary size, limited only by the amount of memory
available to the app. It uses the post 1.4 thread behaviour (daemon thread)
that will stop the sound running after the main has exited.
<ul>
<li>2012-02-29 - Reworked play/loop to fix several bugs.
<li>2009-09-01 - Fixed bug that had clip ..clipped at the end, by calling drain() (before
calling stop()) on the dataline after the play loop was complete. Improvement to frame
and microsecond position determination.
<li>2009-08-17 - added convenience constructor that accepts a Clip. Changed the private
convertFrameToM..seconds methods from 'micro' to 'milli' to reflect that they were dealing
with units of 1000/th of a second.
<li>2009-08-14 - got rid of flush() after the sound loop, as it was cutting off tracks just
before the end, and was found to be not needed for the fast-forward/rewind functionality it
was introduced to support.
<li>2009-08-11 - First binary release.
</ul>
N.B. Remove @Override notation and logging to use in 1.3+
