Tau: [Enhancement] SetSubscriptionDuration() should be deprecated : Too many problems (Version 6.5)

[wang-zeqi]

IOS can monitor the progress normally and has a return value. Android has no return value. What is the reason?
version:6.0.1

Please, could you explain more ?
Where is there a return value ?
How do you monitor the progress ?

I possibily have the same issue.
This code is in a try block that does not catch any error and the audio is playing as expected.
However it never prints any event, not even null on Android but works perfectly on IOS.

await playerModule.startPlayer(
        codec: Codec.pcm16WAV,
        fromURI: audioMessage.audioLocation,
);

playerModule.onProgress.listen((event) {
        print('$event'); 
});

When do you call setSubscriptionDuration() ? Before or after startPlayer() ?
What value for the setSubscriptionDuration() parameter ?

Same as @CountPablo, the setSubscriptionDuration was not properly set, did not realize it as it was working on IOS.
Thanks

Yes, this is not OK that it works on iOS and not Android. It should be same on both devices.
I will fix that.
Also, I am considering let the verb setSubscriptionDuration() deprecated.
I think it will be less error prone for the developer if it is a parameter for StartPlayer() and not a separated verb.

And also the documentation must be accurate. I think the actual documentation is incorrect.

Please keep this issue open.
