I have created one songs album app. In this app, i have to play the songs by using URLs. These URLs gave me 2 types of songs.The first one is on-demand songs, which are our regular songs limited to 5 or 6 minutes. I dont have any problems to play/stop these songs with MediaPlayer object. The second one is live streaming, which is nothing but shout casting.With this shout-casting URLs, the MediaPlayer object is not working properly that means after playing say some 5 seconds of song the mediaplyer stops playing. I dont know what is the problem with live streaming data. if anyone knows about this, please guide me to rock the Mediaplayer.
Thanks Venu
To play live streaming we need to set mp.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
It works for me a lot.
