Prepare Failed on Mediaplayer when trying to stream

[spurnd]

Hello

I am trying to stream an MP3-file using the following code:

player = new MediaPlayer();
String uri = "http://192.168.2.102:8080/sound/test.mp3";
player.setDataSource(uri);
player.prepare();

for some reason every time I call prepare I get the following
IOException: java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0x1
I tested the link directly in a browsr and it works.
I also added the Internet permission in the manifest.

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

thanks for the help

Hi,

Can you please call mediaplayer start after prepare is complete, by registering for setOnPreparedListener() event?

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
MediaPlayer player = MediaPlayer.create(this, Uri.parse("http://192.168.2.102:8080/sound/test.mp3"));
player.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() {
@Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
mp.start();
}
});
}

Thanks and Regards,
Priya
