Hi guys,

I've been unable to successfully hookup a MediaController to an audio
MediaPlayer. I've successfully created a MediaPlayer to play audio.
And i've also programatically instantiated a MediaController.

MediaPlayer mp =  myclass.getMediaPlayer(); //My custom class that
returns the current media player

MediaController mc = new MediaController(this);
mc.setAnchorView(button);
mc.setEnabled(true);
mc.show(2000); //does not crash if i comment this out

I have 2 big problems:

1. The above code crashes unless I comment out the show. In which case
the controller does not appear.

I have debugged mp and mc and the button are all not null values, but
I still get the following in logcat:

 java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity

2. The other problem is that I cannot see a way to hookup the
MediaController to Mediaplayer as setMediaPlayer does not take
MediaPlayer as the paramater.

A simple example of a MediaController working with mp3's would be all
that I need!

Thanks alot for your time.
