that cause Cocos2d-x games to fail to play.

I have posted about it previously here:

Cocos2d-x Background Music Not Supporting in Android 5.0

I have modified this. I did the English do not ask the answer.

This is a patch for Cocos2dxMusic.java

Could you show more explicitely which lines in what function got removed and what lined got added intead??!??. The + and - are not clear for me.

Also, will this work fine with all previous version of android??

Thanks!!

+ is add a line
- is remove a line

lines without anything in front of them are for context.

It does work for previous versions of Android, but introduces a small performance penalty.

This can be avoided with conditionals that check for 5.0 and above (until Google fixes it, and they might never fix it.)
