Hi, Few other developers have asked this question before, I checked those posts. But looks like I have a different issue here. I am using Android Developer Studio 1.0.1 sitting on JRE 1,7 (on a windows laptop).
I am developing an App around a live streaming audio, using MediaPlayer class. If I place the URL in browser, which looks like, http://something.org.uk:8000/blah.mp3, the URL woks/plays perfectly fine from the browser. But my code mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(MainActivity.this, Uri.parse("http://something.org.uk:8000/blah.mp3";)); mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC); mediaPlayer.start(); gives exception java.io.FileNotFoundException: No content provider: http://something.org.uk:8000/blah.mp3 at android.content.ContentResolver.openTypedAssetFileDescriptor(ContentResolver.java:761) at android.content.ContentResolver.openAssetFileDescriptor(ContentResolver.java:665) at android.media.MediaPlayer.setDataSource(MediaPlayer.java:960) at android.media.MediaPlayer.setDataSource(MediaPlayer.java:914) at android.media.MediaPlayer.create(MediaPlayer.java:837) at android.media.MediaPlayer.create(MediaPlayer.java:818) at com.example.android.playlivenusound.MainActivity$1.onClick(MainActivity.java:52) at android.view.View.performClick(View.java:4475) at android.view.View$PerformClick.run(View.java:18786) at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:730) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:92) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:176) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5419) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:525) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:1046) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:862) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) If I use a local MP3 file (added to the raw folder), it works fine. What am I missing here ?? Please help. Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
