I have successfully implemented the Media Player for my apps, but when
I tried to use some of the callback methods I ran into a problem.

What I'm trying to do is use Media Player in a reusable (library)
class.  This MediaPlayer is created by passing the Activity Context to
it's constructor.  I then use getApplicationContext to avoid any
potential memory leaks.  This works well and I'm quite happy with it.

My problem is trying to use callbacks.  When I implement
MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener in my class (that doesn't extend an
Activity) I repeatedly get this error:

Illegal State Exception: PrepareAsync called in state 8

This error only occurs on the line:

mp.prepare();

I believe this is due to the class itself not being an Activity.  When
I implemented the callbacks in a separate test project, the mp.prepare
() works fine.

I cannot use a passed context to my library class, as that would
require the Activity to implement the listener and not my library
class.

How can I create a library class that creates/uses MediaPlayer and
it's callbacks without making it extend Activity?  Is this not
possible?
