Description

Hi, for controlling the AudioPlayer from Notification it makes sense to use the NotificationCompat.MediaStyle. This need a reference to MediaPlayer (aka MediaSession) Here an example code for it:

Notification noti = new NotificationCompat.Builder()
     .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_stat_player)
     .setContentTitle("Track title")
     .setContentText("Artist - Album")
     .setLargeIcon(albumArtBitmap))
     .setStyle(new NotificationCompat.MediaStyle()
         .setMediaSession(mySession))
     .build();
 )


Is it possible to add a method

getMediaSessionId()` to AudioPlayer? Or is it the same as audioSessionId? Code Strong! Rainer

After some quick investigations and [this page](http://www.codota.com/android/scenarios/52fcbcdada0a1f9f8d94c0b5/android.media.MediaPlayer?tag=dragonfly), I found out that it is just an alias for the already existing method that is exposed as ¢getAudioSessionId|http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/api/Titanium.Media.AudioPlayer-method-getAudioSessionId] as you already suggested. Closing.

Hi Hans, if AudoSession same as MediaSession, then the ticket is closed. In my thought AudioSession = binding to PCM data and MediaSession is for binding to controlling. I have no tested if it the same, sorry.
