Hi, I've been trying to play videos obtained as a raw resource, here is what I did MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer(); mp.setDisplay(getHolder()); mp.setDataSource(getContext().getResources().openRawResourceFd(R.raw.myvideo).getFileDescriptor()); mp.setAudioStreamType(2); mp.prepare(); mp.start(); ...
this is not the exact code (deleted my last trial after it became horrendous)! but thats basically what I did I always got this exception: error: Prepare failed.: status=0xFFFFFFFC java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0xFFFFFFFC note that this worked perfectly with mp3s (without the setDisplay call ofc) I Googled the exception, found out that it was a common problem but haven't found any clear solutions, the only lead i found was a guy saying that it was a file format problem, however i tried this with many different 3gp, mp4 files was hoping anyone could help me with this issue... thanks in advance and best regards to you all --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
