thanks for help

Your code is written wierd, not sure where the curly brackets are placed in your methods loadResources and loadScenes.

First suspect would be the placement of your mMusic.play() you call it on line 26, after you create the Scene but not after your finished setting up the scene. I would instead call it after you have setup your onSceneTouchEvent.

If its STILL not playing correctly, call mMusic.pause() at the end of your loadResources().

thanks andrewoid....i try those two thinks.i add mmusic.pause in my load resources, and add mmusic.play after touch event, but now, my music dont sound.music is off when start splash screen, but when i start a new scene, the music is off too.the idea is : splashscreen /-menuscene with buttons.if click on a button, go to other scene/-start new scene with music playing/.
I have all working, except the music.im a little lost.
thanks again.

I have not actually done music in my AndEngine game yet, Ill try it on Monday so if nobody gets back to you by then with an answer Ill try and help more. All I posted above was mostly guessing by logic.

One thing I spotted however was a weird method call in your TouchEvent:

1. edenquatroActivity.this.mMusic.isPlaying()

Now I dont know your class structure but this is a weird call in java anyway. Just change it to

1. mMusic.isPlaying()

If THAT doesn't fix it, then check if music has a method like .resume(). .play() may only just play from the start or mess up in some other way. I'm not sure.

thanks andrewoid.now its working.i change mMusic.play in loadScenes, and i use in bottonsprite.this button start the scene, then start the music too.But now i found other problem.i have in my code a key down event to back to my menuscene and stop the music.ok....if i use music.stop, the music dont sound anymore.if i use music.pause, works...but if i click again in the button and start the scene again, the music start in the pause point, not in the begin.i need to keep playing.

Use music.seekTo(0) before you resume

thanks ozlark, with .seekTo(0) works fine.......yuppiiiiiiii....jeje.Now i want to try with more scenes and more music files......thanks again....
