Has anyone ever gotten MediaPlayer to play audio streams directly off the network without having to download them first?
Here is my naive code straight out of the manual:
---snip---
_player = new MediaPlayer();
_player.setOnPreparedListener(this);
_player.setOnErrorListener(this);
_player.setOnBufferingUpdateListener(this);
_player.setAudioStreamType(AudioSystem.STREAM_MUSIC);
_player.setDataSource("http://myurlhere/file.mp3";);
_player.prepareAsync();
---snip---
If I use prepareAsync(), onError() gets called with the mysterious
parameters 1, 0. If I use prepare(), I get an equally mysterious
IOException with no detail string.
I notice a number of people have tried this --- has anyone actually
succeeded?
