# Audio Player

![](./audio-player/audio-player/TV+MOBILE.png)

Our player supports audio content across all platforms.

**TV**:  Single player layout for both video and audio content.

**Mobile**: Two player options are available:

- Full-Screen Audio Player (recommended )

- Inline Audio Player

We recommend using the full-screen player for a richer audio experience and access to all features.

## Full-Screen Audio Player (Mobile)

Features:

- Sleep Mode

- Playback Speed Control

- Background Playback

- Supports both Live and AOD (Audio on Demand) content

- Mini Player Mode

**To add a full-screen audio player to your app:**

1. Open your layout in the Studio.

2. Click “Add a Screen”.

3. In the “Presets” tab, select “Audio Player”, then save.

4. Connect the screen to your DSP using type mapping:

- Go to the Type Mapping section.

- Select the screen you just added.

- Assign the relevant type from your feed (e.g., "audio").

:::note Important!
To be recognized as audio content, the audio type must contain the word audio. For example: `audio-2`, `audio-sports`, etc.
:::

5. For live audio content, include the following extension in your feed:

```json
{
  "live": true
}
```
:::note
The audio player uses a 1:1 image ratio (not the standard 16:9 used for video).
:::

## Inline Audio Player (Mobile)
The inline audio player uses the same video player screen as used for video content.

To configure:
1. In the Studio, go to the “Audio Player” section and upload an image placeholder to display during audio playback.

2. Enable background playback to allow audio to continue playing when the app is minimized.

:::note
The inline player supports basic audio playback. For advanced features like Sleep Mode and Playback Speed Control, use the full-screen audio player.
:::

## Audio on TV
For TV apps, use the video player, which supports both video and audio content. No additional configuration is needed for audio playback. A background image (static) or color can also be used.
