I am developing an app where I can stream audio from http get requests and play it to the default android music player or installed music player? I have no idea how to do it?
Thanks.
Do this way
Uri uri = Uri.parse("http://www.example.com/file.mp3");
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
startActivity(intent);

I am trying to play a music file located on Internet with some URL like "http://......../music.mp3"
I am using the following code
Uri myUri = Uri.parse("http://..../music.mp3");
Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(myUri, "audio/*");
startActivity(intent);
this code is not playing music in any installed music player, I think it passes the URL so music player is unable to play it.
I dont want to play music on my app. can anyone give me a hint how to implement it.
I have URL poins to mp3 file
what I need is when the user click a certain button in my layout I want the android OS to display a list of the installed apps that can handle this URL
can this done or I should use the MediaPlayer class?
To open a url, android system will show browsers list. But i think you need apps which can stream music. I dont think there is any system app that can do it. or else you can download music when user clicks on button and then open music players by media intent or mediaplayer class.
MediaPlayer mMediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
FileInputStream fileStream = new FileInputStream("your song.mp3");
mMediaPlayer.setDataSource(fileStream.getFD());
Try this
I want to use the systems audio/video player to play a sound from my raw folder but I keep on getting the same "No activity found to handle Intent" message (exception) when firing the intent.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse("android.resource://mypackagename/" + R.raw.audiofile), "audio/*");
startActivity(intent);
Any ideas? Thanks!
The way the intent system works is that your app is basically saying, "Hey Android, I have this url and I want to view it. Is there an app on the phone that will do that?"
For http urls, you've got your browser installed on the phone, for google play urls it'll show you the google play store as an option, etc etc. If you don't have an app on your phone that will handle audio resources (which there isn't one installed by default whatever that means for android).
Just like Dirk said, you have to use the MediaPlayer to play your resources. The MediaPlayer page is pretty sweet: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaPlayer.html
Please try the following (Where soundfile is the name of the file in the raw folder without extension. Use only lowercase characters, please):
MediaPlayer player = MediaPlayer(this,R.raw.soundfile);
player.prepare();
player.start();
.
.
.
player.stop();
player.reset();
player.release();
player = null;

I need to play long audio files using the Android SDK. I am aware of the MediaPlayer framework shipped by Android, but I was wondering wether the built-in "Music Player" application could be invoked, so I don't have to write my own player GUI and code.
Yes, you can.
Set up an intent like this:
act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=file:///mnt/sdcard/song_name.mp3 typ=audio/mpeg3
Action: VIEW
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri
.parse("file:///mnt/sdcard/song_name.mp3"),
"audio/mpeg3");
startActivity(intent);
