Streaming audio not working in Android
- by user320293
Hi,
I'm sure that this question has been asked before but I've been unable to find a solid answer. I'm trying to load a streaming audio from a server. Its a audio/aac file
http://3363.live.streamtheworld.com:80/CHUMFMAACCMP3
The code that I'm using is
private void playAudio(String str) {
try {
final String path = str;
if (path == null || path.length() == 0) {
Toast.makeText(RadioPlayer.this, "File URL/path is empty",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
// If the path has not changed, just start the media player
MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer();
mp.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
try{
mp.setDataSource(getDataSource(path));
mp.prepareAsync();
mp.start();
}catch(IOException e){
Log.i("ONCREATE IOEXCEPTION", e.getMessage());
}catch(Exception e){
Log.i("ONCREATE EXCEPTION", e.getMessage());
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("RPLAYER EXCEPTION", "error: " + e.getMessage(), e);
}
}
private String getDataSource(String path) throws IOException {
if (!URLUtil.isNetworkUrl(path)) {
return path;
} else {
URL url = new URL(path);
URLConnection cn = url.openConnection();
cn.connect();
InputStream stream = cn.getInputStream();
if (stream == null)
throw new RuntimeException("stream is null");
File temp = File.createTempFile("mediaplayertmp", ".dat");
temp.deleteOnExit();
String tempPath = temp.getAbsolutePath();
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(temp);
byte buf[] = new byte[128];
do {
int numread = stream.read(buf);
if (numread <= 0)
break;
out.write(buf, 0, numread);
} while (true);
try {
stream.close();
} catch (IOException ex) {
Log.e("RPLAYER IOEXCEPTION", "error: " + ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
return tempPath;
}
}
Is this the correct implementation? I'm not sure where I'm going wrong. Can someone please please help me on this.
