Thank you Klaus for the response.
What you say is also what I have come to understand.
I think I will try to download a local copy of the streamed content
and play that instead.
In any case the MediaPlayer class seem not to be working correctly in
most streaming audio cases.
I guess I will have to look into making it a service too.
best regards

First of all the MediaPlayer does not support all music streaming
formats, as I understood.
I also struggeling with it.
For me it is working to play a mp3 file located on a server. Try this
first.
But it seems that m3u or aac is not supported at all. (Implement a
ErrorListener to see the error)
I hope that I am wrong in this case, but I cant get it to work,
either.
Maybe you can decrypt the m3u file yourself to get the mpeg itself.
Let me know how this works.
Nevertheless the best thing is, to create a remote service (or a
thread) that prepares and plays the music. So it does not disturb the
main gui.
Sorry that is all I know.

I am trying to make a very simple radio player for Android and I
cannot get the audio streaming to work. In my latest attempt it plays
for about 1 second and stops for some streams and it doesnt work at
all for some other streams. Logcat doesn't give much useful
information to me.
I am testing on HTC Hero (Android 1.5).
If I hook the completion and buffer events I see the audio gets a
complete event but it keeps buffering.
Is there anything wrong with the code below?
Should I be able to stream the the audio streams below?
Is there a complete example somewhere of a working radio streaming?
Thanks for any and all suggestions.
public class MyActivity extends Activity implements OnPreparedListener
{
MediaPlayer streamPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
streamPlayer.start();
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
String path = http://www.nch.com.au/acm/sample.aac;;
// String path = http://radio.bis.bg:8000/buddhabar;;
// String path =
http://kzsulive.stanford.edu/audio/kzsu-1-24.m3u;;
try {
Uri uri = Uri.parse(path);
streamPlayer.reset();
streamPlayer.setDataSource(this, uri);
streamPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
streamPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(this);
streamPlayer.prepareAsync();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}
