Well, I can tell you that I can replicate your problem with your test MP3 file, even hosted from my Web server. I can replicate the problem on the Motorola DROID (Android 2.0.1) as well. And network speed doesn't seem to have an impact -- mine fails with a fairly snappy connection. OTOH, these Librivox poetry MP3 files work fine, and they are all shorter than your test file: http://www.archive.org/download/song_librivox/song_donne_mac_64kb.mp3 http://www.archive.org/download/sonnet_23_librivox/sonnet_23_shakespeare_sm_64kb.mp3 http://www.archive.org/download/cow_stevenson3/cow_stevenson_ol_64kb.mp3 So, file length is not the determining factor. In fact, I have not gotten a failure on anything other than your test file. So, while there certainly is a bug -- MediaPlayer shouldn't just quietly fail -- I do not think it is as widespread as you fear. If you can find a couple of legally-distributable files that exhibit the problem, package them and a sample project up and file an issue on http://b.android.com. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Online Training: 26-30 April 2010: http://onlc.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
