shoutcast

Please see the code i am using for streaming shoutcast stream, it works with one URL but NOT with the other one. This one works: Uri myUri = Uri.parse("http://fr3.ah.fm:9000/"); But not with this one: Uri myUri = Uri.parse("http://someOtherURL"); SimpleMusicStream.java import android.app.Activity; import android.media.AudioManager; import android.media.MediaPlayer; import android.net.Uri; import android.os.Bundle; import android.util.Log; import android.view.View; import android.widget.Button; public class SimpleMusicStream extends Activity implements MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener,

EDIT: Android 2.2 MediaPlayer is working fine with one SHOUTcast URL but not with the other one I need to play audio files from external URLs(shoutcast stream). Currently the audio files are downloaded incrementally & are played as soon as we get enough audio in phone local temporary storage. i am using the StreamingMediaPlayer class . Check this piece of code: private MediaPlayer createMediaPlayer(File mediaFile) throws IOException { MediaPlayer mPlayer = new MediaPlayer(); //example of mediaFile =/data/data/package/cache/playingMedia0.dat FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(mediaFile);
