I'm trying to play streaming music. The user has previously requested that the stream start a certain way into the stream. How do I do this?
What I'm finding is that if I do: mediaplayer.setDataSource(...); mediaplayer.prepare(); mediaplayer.seekTo(...); ...then the seek happens *after* the initial buffer is read, which of course is a waste [*]. But if I do: mediaplayer.setDataSource(...); mediaplayer.seekTo(...); mediaplayer.prepare(); ...then of course I get an IllegalStateException because the MediaPlayer hasn't been prepared yet! Has anyone managed to make anything like this work? [*] Actually, of course, I'm using prepareAsync(). In fact, what I'm observing is that calling seekTo() from the onPrepared() callback tends to confuse MediaPlayer and it hands me a -38 error and I have to reset and start again. It seems to only want to seek after the playback has had a chance to settle for a few moments. -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ │ ⍎'⎕',∊N⍴⊂S←'←⎕←(3=T)⋎M⋏2=T←⊃+/(V⌽"⊂M),(V⊝"M),(V,⌽V)⌽"(V,V←1⎺1)⊝"⊂M)' │ --- Conway's Game Of Life, in one line of APL
