I'm working media palyer app, in this i need to stream audio from URL. In my case some URL's are not streamed in some devices (Eg. Samsung Note III), after a long time i got this error message in onError() method.
E/MediaPlayer(24445): error (1, -1004)
I used the following code to pay url.
mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mediaPlayer.setDataSource(songPreViewUrl);
mediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(BackgroundAudioService.this);
mediaPlayer.setOnCompletionListener(BackgroundAudioService.this);
mediaPlayer.setOnBufferingUpdateListener(BackgroundAudioService.this);
mediaPlayer.prepareAsync();
Can any one please share the suggestion, why the urls are not streams in Samsung devices.
My new surveillance camera just arrived, so I'm trying to write an app to live stream the video from it.
Since it came with basically no documentation, I installed the 'onvifer' android app which allows you to browse the camera's capabilities. This app works fine - gets the video and allows PTZ controls, etc. It reports the streaming url as:
rtsp://192.1.0.193:554/mpeg4
I tested the stream in the VLC windows client, and it's able to stream video from that URL as well. This makes me comfortable that the network is working OK.
The camera states the feed will be 1920x1080; VLC confirms this.
The basic code in my activity:
VideoView videoView = (VideoView)this.findViewById(R.id.VideoView);
videoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse("rtsp://192.1.0.193:554/mpeg4"));
videoView.requestFocus();
videoView.start();
I've also given the app INTERNET permissions in AndroidManifest.xml, disabled authentication on the camera, and am running on a real device (not the emulator).
When I run the app, LogCat shows this immediately:
setDataSource IOException happend :
java.io.FileNotFoundException: No content provider: rtsp://192.1.0.193:554/mpeg4
at android.content.ContentResolver.openTypedAssetFileDescriptor (ContentResolver.java).
About 15 seconds later, the app shows a "Can't play this video" modal dialog box and this is added to LogCat:
MediaPlayer error (100, 0)
AudioSystem AudioFlinger server died!
MediaPlayer error (100, 0)
VideoView Error: 100,0
I've googled everything I can think of, but haven't found anything useful.
Any thoughts?
wild-ass-guess on your logcat and the RC=100... No SDP file or no equivalent for RTSP of the 'moov atom' block required to negotiate details of the stream /container/ codec/ format... You can get the AOSP code for mediaPlayer/videoView and grep the RC value in the source.
RTSP is gnarly to debug ( note the tools links ) and not assured to run inside a NAT'd network due to UDP issues. So, to get better result, you may have to look into forcing your config to do data channel on TCP an not UDP. Or it could be other issues , of which there are many.
If you really want to investigate, some possible tools below:
Use command line and CURL client to request your stream:
Android - Java RTSP Session Mgmt package on Git
Protocol dumps for CLI RTSP sessions to Youtube RTSP/SDP streams
To pursue the issue, you may need to get into the weeds with debug tools that track details of the protocol negotiation that preceeds the MediaPlayer actually starting play on the stream. That would include learning the RFP and the protocol details.
videoView.setVideoURI(“rtsp://192.1.0.193:554/mpeg4”);
Try your app on another phone.
You may find the problem is about the mobile device.
Try this
path:"rtsp://218.204.223.237:554/mobile/1/4C024DFE77DC717D/onnuvesj43xj7t26.sdp".
See whether the code has something wrong.
I'm using Android's MediaPlayer API to play a stream of audio (http://www.abc.net.au/res/streaming/audio/hls/classic_fm.m3u8). After a few seconds (sometimes more, sometimes less) my audio stops but not error event is raised.
On Logcat appears this message:
06-30 19:35:12.785 24767-25086/? I/AudioFlinger﹕ BUFFER TIMEOUT: remove(4100) from active list on thread 0xb5e5f008
Sometimes after a while a get an error in the video player related to network issues. Sometimes I don't receive anything.
I have checked for GC and power management issues, my internet connection is stable too. Does anyone knows how to resolve this or at least what it really means?
I'm testing this on a Nexus 5 running Android 4.4.4. I tested my code before with a previous version of the OS and everything worked fine a long as I remember.
Thanks.
We have a Android radio app which plays various live radio streams. It works pretty well with Google Chromecast as log the stream is a "normal" mp3 stream. The playback on Chromecast Styled Media Receiver is NOT working with SHOUTcast streams i.e http://46.105.118.14:13500.
After mRemoteMediaPlayer.load(...) I see in my Android LogCat a result statuscode = 1.
In Chrome debug console I see the following Load metadata error:
[673.080s] [cast.receiver.MediaManager] Load metadata error
cast_receiver.js:18
ib cast_receiver.js:18
gb.Gb cast_receiver.js:18
B.log cast_receiver.js:13
E cast_receiver.js:15
Z.pa cast_receiver.js:71
Eb cast_receiver.js:23
Cb cast_receiver.js:24
(anonymous function) cast_receiver.js:21
Is it possible to play SHOUTcast live streams with Google Chromecast (Styled Media Receiver or Custom Receiver)? If yes, can you give me some hints or point me to an example?
Append a /; after the port of the stream url, so you get to the stream data i.e http://46.105.118.14:13500/;
I use the localcast android app with this trick to make my chromecast play SHOUTcast Radio.
I have a android application that plays HLS (Http Live Streaming) videos using VideoView.
I am using Local http proxy for forwarding http requests from VideoView to main HLS server as my stream (transport segment) is encrypted.
Flow of my application:
0. Preparing VideoView with local proxy url. ex. "http:// localhost :9878/index.m3u8"
1. VideoView sends requests to my proxy for M3U8 and ts segments.
2. Proxy forwards requests for M3u8 and ts from VideoView to HLS server.
3. Proxy checks for transport stream requests and before sending response to VideoView decrypts transport stream and sends it to VideoView.
4. VideoView plays the video stream.
This is working properly but some times i get following error:
output buffer is smaller than decoded data size Out Length
When i get this error in logcat my video becomes garbage (green video)
I see this issue usually when video stream bitrate size increases, is there any workaround for this issue?
