Playing Music on Background
I'm working on a radio app and it needs to have a "currently playing" window which is always open and playing on the background so that user can browse other pages and windows on the app while listening.
How can I have a window remain open in the background and how I can get access to it again when the user is clicking on another radio station to listen?

Hi,
Not quite sure what you meant by the second part of the question… But you can have an audio player on a window which will continue to play when you browse other windows!
var url = "http://radiosonar.solent.ac.uk:8000/streamhi.mp3"; var streamer = Titanium.Media.createAudioPlayer({url:url,preload:true,allowBackground:true});The allowBackground was only required for Android! Theres some more info in the kitchensink!

Will it run on the background even if the application is closed?
