Dear All, Like many others, I am trying to read a Shoutcast stream on Android 2.2 (Froyo). I found out that MediaPlayer handles the stream out of the box, without specific coding.
However, I wonder how to retrieve the meta data (ie song title) from the stream. The OnInfoListener.onInfo is never called for me (http:// developer.android.com/reference/android/media/ MediaPlayer.OnInfoListener.html). Even if it was, doc is silent about retrieving these metadata - is this something planned for a later revision ? I know of course I can read the bits and bytes myself, parse the title out of the music stream and give the music bytes to MediaPlayer. (already did that for another platform) But because I am lazy (a good quality for developers ?) and because MediaPlayer seems so close to perform 100% of the job, I would like to double check with this group if / what I am missing.
