Android :: Playing Audio Or Video From Remote URL - RTSP/HTTP
Nov 4, 2009
Did anyone try playing audio/video through http/rtsp. I am having a problem with either of the approach.... I am getting an error Command PLAYER_INIT completed with PVMFError I some cases I got Command PLAYER_INIT completed with PVMFErrorContentInvalidForProgressiveDownoload.
Can some one explain what is the problem. The code snippet I am using is given below. Code...
The code works fine when I say mVideoView.setVideoPath("/sdcard/vv.3gp"); but not able to play if I give a rtsp/http urls. In case of http it says PVMFErrorContentInvalid for progressive download.
Can some body tell me what is the problem. Can you please post the code if someone has been successful in playing audio/video through http/rtsp.

I want to stream a media file on web, and android developer website has said that MediaPlayer.setDataSource() can set the data source (file-path or http/rtsp URL) to use. But I got an error in both G1 device and emulator when streaming a rtsp url file: Command PLAYER_PREPARE completed with an error or info PVMFailure error(1, -1). Does anyone know what is this error, or anyone knows where can I get the error description (1, -1) means? the code can work successfully when playing a audio/video file or streaming a http protocal sudio/video file, but can't stream rtsp protocal file. Is android not supported rtsp streaming?

Ok so I see a lot of people saying they are having problems with video playback when importing from their SD Card but Im having the opposite problem.
I just switched over from the Metro PCS Samsung Code which is a Windows 6 phone to EVO and I put my SD Card in my EVO. All my music files play and the mp4 video files play but the audio from the mp4 video files dont. Does anyone have advice on how to fix this?

i'm big into freestyling. i have over 1500 instrumentals on my phone.i can't figure out how to play them and record myself (either audio or video) at the same time.i figure i'm either gonna have to download a new music player that won't close or a video/audio recorder that won't close the "Music" player that came with my evo.and before anyone goes tryin to be smart, i realize that even if i was able to accomplish such an action the quality would probably be really low due to speaker and mic being so close.my intent is more of a "on the fly lyric composition" rather than a " put myself on youtube to show everyone how awesome i am"

I'm having a strange problem with my Xperia Arc (4.0.4) that is proving very difficult to track down. When playing music or videos, after a random amount of time (maybe 20 or 30 seconds) the phone will crash and restart. This happens regardless of the app I use - Play Music, Poweramp, MX Player and YouTube. I have restored my phone using CWM to a much earlier backup, but eventually (within a few hours) the problem returns.
My only other recourse would seem to be a full wipe and return to stock firmware, which would be a major PITA and obviously wouldn't support if this is a hardware issue or some conflict with an update

I was tried for RTSP stream for a long time, finally I could success to play the RTSP stream from mobile Youtube website:
http://m.youtube.com/
My approach is to copy the stream link and paste it in my code, then, there are sometimes success to work(play) on Android and sometimes will not. I can't figure out why? Is something wrong about Youtube server? Because my code is just the same, and only change is the stream link URL. I used VideoView widget and my Android platform is sdk 1.5 and under x86-based, so I really want to know why and how can I solved for this. This is the logcat when I can't work for the video stream.

I need your help regarding streaming in android. I read some of the previous discussions but I have a few doubts which I thought of clarifying from you. Please help me with the following aspects:
(i) Does android supports RTSP and HTTP streaming?
(ii) One discussion read -> "Streaming does not work in the emulator environment due to some firewall issues in the emulator network layer". Is this issue not resolved till now?
(iii) I used the api demo code available
@ ApiDemossrccomexample androidapismediaMediaPlayerDemo_Video.java
Here I set the path as->
path = "Rtsp://10.2.5.220/sample_50kbit. 3gp"; OR as ->
"path = "rtsp://10.2.5.220/sample_100kbit.mp4"
This is crashing @ mMediaPlayer.prepare();
(I am using darwin streaming server)
This is playing fine in local playback. But, I am not able to understand why it is crashing here.
(iv) The supported codecs are MPEG4 Video, AVC, MPEG4 Audio, AMR, and H263. Am I correct? I await your response. Kindly assist.

I've been researching how to best implement a service which performs a network transaction and returns data to the caller.
Clearly, this needs to happen on its own thread which means some form of async response. I can see at least three ways of doing this--some more complex than others. In the descriptions below, C is the caller, S is the service.
1) C wraps a Handler in a Messenger object, adds this to an Intent. C then calls startService with this intent. S extends IntentService which runs the Intents received in a worker thread. S then sends a message to C via the Messenger. This has the benefit of not requiring any of the async binding process or making an IDL interface that needs to be compiled into C. This seems to be the closes to a Handler-based response mechanism of Local Services.
2) C binds to S and then uses AsyncTask<> to make a blocking call to S. S performs the network transaction and returns the data in the return value or an out parameter. This requires the async binding process, but does not require a callback function since the inter- thread communications is handled by AsyncTask<> and the worker thread is in C's context.
3) Make the function called in S be completely asynchronous. S defines two interfaces: IMyService and IMyServiceCallback. S implements IMyService.Stub. C implements IMyServiceCallback.Stub. C binds to S then calls S via IMyService, passing its IMyServiceCallback binder. S spins up a worker thread and returns immediately. S then calls the callback when it has completed the network transaction.
I am asking for advice on which methods are most appropriate. I do not need the the service running constantly, only when the web transaction is required. C does not use S all the time--definitely don't want to bind during C's onCreate. However, I would like the time from when C determines it needs to use S to getting the results back to be as quick as possible (i.e. adding minimal latency to the already latent network access).
Is there any preference to having the worker thread in C or in S? Are there any significant problems with option 1?

I'm trying to receive RTSP streaming video with g1. The video file I made was encoded using QuickTime pro, and they are progressive streamable with a hint track. Video is encoded in H.264, and audio is encoded in AAC LC. File container is MP4. (They can be played via sdcard). I used Darwin Streaming Server to stream this file. With sample media player given from android, I changed 'path' to the address like "rtsp://172.29.10.109/test.mp4". The results are really odd. It sometimes (like once per 20~30 times) runs well, but in other times, only audio is played and video freezes after first 1~3 frames.

I am able to play a local video in full screen through Mediaplayer. But supplying an RTSP link to it gives a blank screen. Using VideoView, however, I am able to play the same RTSP link but not in full size. DavidSparks I am attaching a cc to you cos I have seen a similar kind of issue in your name. Can anyone help me in playing a full screen RTSP video. The Youtube application in G1 does so.

I have Googled my butt off trying to find where if there is a surefire way to make rtsp work. I have a radio station that I listen to that streams via rtsp. Of course by default Android doesn't want to play it. If I pop the URL into yourmuze.fm and create a station there it lets me stream it to my phone. After checking how it works I come to find that it streams to the phone via rtsp! So obviously there is something amiss. What makes one stream work and one not? This is the stream I am attempting : rtsp://wms2.christiannetcast.com/yes-fm
It is an audio stream so I would be thrilled with most peoples problem of "it only does audio and not video." When yourmuze.fm streams, DDMS states it brings up MovieView to play the audio if that helps at all.

I have an app that worked fine on Android 2.1 (Eclair) but is no longer working in 2.2.1 (Froyo). I think this may have to do with the shift from OpenCore to StageFright for video encoding and decoding, but am unsure.
The debug logs show two things I'm not sure about:
Does this mean H.264 baseline is not supported? WARN/QCvdec(59): Parsing Error unsupported profile or level No idea about: ERROR/PVOMXVidDecNode(59): Ln 1373 OMX_EventError nData1 -2147479542 nData2 0
Play the following url (it works fine in VLC, for example): rtsp://nexus3.dropcam.com/6821ec44e37846428850ec195d69969a

I have a couple questions regarding audio streaming/progressive download over HTTP. Could you please help me?
1. MediaPlayer supports progressive download according to the developer guide from this link http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/index.html ("If you're passing a URL to an online media file, the file must be capable of progressive download."). As far as I understand progressive download means media playback during download process with saving the media file to file system(SD card or internal FS) after the downloading is finished (if it's a file, not a stream in the passed URL). So, I tried to set the following URL: setDataSource (http://84.204.154.49/mmapi/music.mp3). Playback is fine, but the file isn't saved to SD card or internal phone file system. Can MediaPlayer save media content to the file system after downloading is completed? Is there a way to turn on such capability?
2. Does MediaPlayer support HTTP streaming? I tried to use http://217.10.32.134:8129/ultrafan128.mp3, http://62.32.66.180:8800, also AMR-, AAC- audio stream over HTTP on the local server, but playback does not work. For example, RTSP streaming works fine with AMR and AAC.

AudioRecord can record audio data in pcm format in realtime, but there is no audio-encoder who can encode pcm data to amr format. may be third-party java code can do this, but the performance may be very low.MediaRecorder just record audio data to disk. not realtime.It seems that this is a real miss-impossible?

I am currently involved with developing a streaming media player for android. For testing purpose I have HTC HERO , HTC G1, and droid. I could stream audio and video both for only HERO. On G1 and Droid I get this error "Player Engine AO did a leave , error = 101 ", surprisingly this comes as soon as describe response is sent to the client!. So far I have not able to find out the exact cause of this error. Should it imply that (on droid and G1) Video type H264 is not supported for streaming? (RTSP).
Firmware details.
HERO >> 1.5 G1 >> 1.6 droid >> 2.0
RTSP streaming for only aac works fine on all the devices.

I am using a MediaPlayer instance in order to stream audio files from an Internet location. The audio player is in a separate activity. The user can select from a list of audio files and come to this activity which plays the audio.Now the user might go back to the previous activity (with the list)and select another audio file. In this case, I want to stop any other audio that is playing and start playing the new audio which was selected.Is there any way I can know whether an audio file is playing without having to hold on to the MediaPlayer object?

I am using the Alcatel OT-918d (stock rom, root access enabled) and while playing videos in the browser, I do not get an action prompt to choose from the available video players and browser plays the video using "default video player".
The so called "default video player" has been uninstalled though. Have cleared cache, clear defaults, clear data for the browser but still do not get a prompt to choose a video player while playing videos from the browser.
Also installed the "Default App Manager" to check for the default video player. However, it indicates no defaults to play any videos (either from file or streaming videos).
(If I play a stored video from phone or SD card, I do get the prompt to choose a video player. But do not get a prompt if playing any video in the browser.)
