I am struggling with getting a live radio stream to work on android. I am using the MediaPlayer class and just setting the URL and playing it. It works great for the most part, but after 5-30 minutes it inevitably dies. On 2.1 phones (more specifically a hero) I get this log output
W/MediaPlayer( 7919): info/warning (1, 26)
I/MediaPlayer( 7919): Info (1,26)
I/MediaStreamService( 7919): mPlayer info code:1 extra:26
E/MediaPlayer( 7919): error (1, -11)
E/MediaPlayer( 7919): Error (1,-11)
Where MediaStreamService is my Service containing the MediaPlayer the output is coming from the OnInfoListener
On 2.2 phones I don’t get the OnInfoListener callback ever, the stream just dies. But I do see this in the logcat
E/HTTPStream( 1020): recv failed, errno = 11 (Try again)
E/HTTPDataSource( 1020): retrying connection failed
Seems to work flawlessly on my 1.6 phone despite the constant logcat spam of
E/PlayerDriver( 82): Invalid percentage value <big growing number>
My question is, what do the error codes (1, 26) mean? What is causing my mediaPlayer to crash? Is the 2.1 problem at all related to the 2.2 problem?
Thanks,
Nathan
Edit: I was looking in the source code to OnInfoListener and found public static final int MEDIA_INFO_UNKNOWN = 1;
I’m not sure exactly what it means, and can’t find where these extras are kept either.. Any insight on to what Media info unknown means? or what this 26 stands for would be very appreciated.

The error is -11, which means PVMFErrTimeout. You can check out the definition files here link text
