Question

I got a project where i need to use my Android phone as a radio station.It means,i need to produce sound or song from my android phone and upload those to a server and from server; users can hear those sounds and songs live;almost,like an internet radio.

Is that possible in Android phones?If so how can i implement that?

Answer 1

You can use MediaPlayer class to play radio station. You need to pass radio station’s url init.

for example This is one radio station’s url http://shoutcast2.omroep.nl:8104/

So, Now initialise Media Player’s object with it as follows,

MediaPlayer player = new MediaPlayer();
player.setDataSource(“http://shoutcast2.omroep.nl:8104/”); 
player.prepareAsync();
player.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener(){

            public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
                     player.start();
            } 

});
