I have an application that's a specialised streaming audio player,
designed to play music from a particular online archive. I'm using the
time-honoured technique of downloading into a file and telling
MediaPlayer to stream from the file.

This all worked on m5, but on 0.9 it fails: I call setDataSource(), and
then prepareAsync(), and immediately get back an undocumented error with
what=-4 and extra=0. Does anyone know what this means?

In addition, has anyone compiled a list of what's changed in MediaPlayer
 in 0.9? I want to know how many of my bug workarounds to get rid of!
What I'm actually *trying* to do is to stream audio via a large,
persistent file cache under application control; does the new
MediaPlayer provide enough control of the buffering system to do this
automatically?
