I am trying to add background music that auto-starts when i run the processing sketch
i followed a simple instruction online and i added codes at line 6 , 26, 27,40,46 ,48, and from 75 to 82

but i keep getting the error "duplicate field name.player" at line 26 .

that said, can i use any mp3 file by specifying the file or does it have to be at a specific bitrate ?

here's my code ,what am i doing wrong
3. import processing.serial.*;
4. import processing.opengl.*;
6. import ddf.minim.*;
9. Serial serial;
10. int serialPort = 1; // << Set this to be the serial port of your Arduino - ie if you have 3 ports : COM1, COM2, COM3
11. // and your Arduino is on COM2 you should set this to '1' - since the array is 0 based
13. int sen = 3; // sensors
14. int div = 3; // board sub divisions
16. Normalize n[] = new Normalize[sen];
17. MomentumAverage cama[] = new MomentumAverage[sen];
18. MomentumAverage axyz[] = new MomentumAverage[sen];
19. float[] nxyz = new float[sen];
20. int[] ixyz = new int[sen];
22. float w = 256; // board size
23. boolean[] flip = {
24. false, true, false};
26. AudioPlayer player;
27. Minim minim;
29. int player = 0;
30. boolean moves[][][][];
32. PFont font;
33. PImage b;
36. void setup() {
37. size(1026, 770, P3D);
38. frameRate(25);
40. minim = new Minim(this);
42. // load a file, give the AudioPlayer buffers that are 1024 samples long
43. // player = minim.loadFile("groove.mp3");
45. // load a file, give the AudioPlayer buffers that are 2048 samples long
46. player = minim.loadFile("groove.mp3", 2048);
47. // play the file
48. player.play();
51. b = loadImage("data/3.jpg");
52. font = loadFont("TrebuchetMS-Italic-20.vlw");
53. textFont(font);
54. textMode(SCREEN);
56. println(Serial.list());
57. serial = new Serial(this, Serial.list()[serialPort], 115200);
59. for(int i = 0; i < sen; i++) {
60. n[i] = new Normalize();
61. cama[i] = new MomentumAverage(.01);
62. axyz[i] = new MomentumAverage(.15);
63. }
65. reset();
66. }
68. void draw() {
69. background(b);
71. updateSerial();
72. drawBoard();
73. }
75. void stop()
76. {
78. player.close();
79. minim.stop();
81. super.stop();
82. }
...........continues
any form of help would be much appreciated

Background image slows down sketch

Hello,
after inserting a background image ,the sketch tends to run much more less smoother

I read somewhere that it's because your background image is loading with every frame rate but i am not sure about that

Any form of help would be much appreciated
2. void setup() {
3. size(1026, 770, P3D);
4. frameRate(40);
6. b = loadImage("data/2.jpg");
7. font = loadFont("TrebuchetMS-Italic-20.vlw");
8. textFont(font);
9. textMode(SCREEN);
11. println(Serial.list());
12. serial = new Serial(this, Serial.list()[serialPort], 115200);
14. for(int i = 0; i < sen; i++) {
15. n[i] = new Normalize();
16. cama[i] = new MomentumAverage(.01);
17. axyz[i] = new MomentumAverage(.15);
18. }
20. reset();

23. void draw() {
24. background(b);
25. updateSerial();

Hello,
i am completely new to processing

can someone please help me with this code ,

I want to add a background image to it, the background image would be placed in the processing folder/data
1. import processing.serial.*;
2. import processing.opengl.*;
4. Serial serial;
5. int serialPort = 1;
7. int sen = 3;
8. int div = 3;
9. Normalize n[] = new Normalize[sen];
10. MomentumAverage cama[] = new MomentumAverage[sen];
11. MomentumAverage axyz[] = new MomentumAverage[sen];
12. float[] nxyz = new float[sen];
13. int[] ixyz = new int[sen];
15. float w = 256; // board size
16. boolean[] flip = {
17. false, true, false};
19. int player = 0;
20. boolean moves[][][][];
22. PFont font;
24. void setup() {
25. size(800, 600, P3D);
26. frameRate(25);
28. font = loadFont("TrebuchetMS-Italic-20.vlw");
29. textFont(font);
30. textMode(SCREEN);
32. println(Serial.list());
33. serial = new Serial(this, Serial.list()[serialPort], 115200);
35. for(int i = 0; i < sen; i++) {
36. n[i] = new Normalize();
37. cama[i] = new MomentumAverage(.01);
38. axyz[i] = new MomentumAverage(.15);
39. }
41. reset();
42. }
44. void draw() {
45. updateSerial();
46. drawBoard();
47. }
49. void updateSerial() {
50. String cur = serial.readStringUntil('\n');
51. if(cur != null) {
52. String[] parts = split(cur, " ");
53. if(parts.length == sen ) {
54. float[] xyz = new float[sen];
55. for(int i = 0; i < sen; i++)
56. xyz[i] = float(parts[i]);
58. if(mousePressed && mouseButton == LEFT)
59. for(int i = 0; i < sen; i++)
60. n[i].note(xyz[i]);
.......... the code continues
I check online for the syntax ,even though i found them i cant seem to incorporate it into the above code.

so can someone kindly modify the above code with the right parameters for adding a background image

any form of help would be much appreciated
