Unable to stream song, for sample 30sec. "Unable to get stream URL"

[Punith Raj]

Dear Team,


I am working on creating a application which uses Rdio android sdk. I have setup my project as explained in the support page. I am not able to get 30 sec song stream working. I have tested for other api calls and they do work. Below is my configuration.

A static Rdio object, initialized only once.



rdio = new Rdio(PartyConstants.accessToken, PartyConstants.accessTokenSecret, accessToken, accessSecret, this, this);

PartyConstants.accessToken  and PartyConstants.accessTokenSecret is my credentials accessToken and Secret.
accessToken and accessSecret is retrieved after successfull login --> saved later in shared preferences.


On my play button, i am creating a new async task to create a new media player and start a song.

public void playButton(int position) {
       
        String _songId = songList.get(position).getTrackID();

        AsyncTask<String, Void, String> task = new AsyncTask<String, Void, String>() {
            MediaPlayer player;

            @Override
            protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
                String trackId = params[0];
                try {
                    player = rdio.getPlayerForTrack(trackId, null, true);
                    player.prepare();
                    player.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {
                        @Override
                        public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
                            //TODO
                        }
                    });
                    player.start();
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    Log.e("Test", "Exception " + e);
                }
                return trackId;
            }
        };
        task.execute(_songId);
    }

once the thread enters the prepare method, its running in there forever whithout exception or return.
Below is the stack trace. rdiop...@gmail.com is my id, if it matters.

So i figured out one mistake in the previous code.. i was passing a type : "sr" sr33382100 to the method getPlayerForTrackID..I corrected it with a trackID : "

t2711873" But still getting same error..
