problem in playing mp4 video file in android

Question

hello..

i am trying to play a mp4 video file from remote url in android media player.but i am getting an error code --

Command PLAYER_PREPARE completed with an error or info PVMFErrNoResources error (1, -15)

i hv searched for the error code and found that this error is returned if the resource required in processing of a request is not being available. A typical example is, a socket node connection not available for streaming.

any help would be appreciated...

Answer 1

You are trying to access a file which is not present. Are you accessing from Asset or server?

Answer 2

I have the same issue. My videos are present. I can access them from my Mac using QT. I even copied the link out of the xml that my app is using to be sure I didn't fat finger something. Also interesting to note, other rtsp links parsed from the same xml, hosted on the same server, encoded with the same settings - playback just fine.

Answer 3

I have checked this with SonyEricsson X10 and Samsung and the videos downloaded from a http server do not work if they have a size higher than 1,7 MB. The same videos in the same server work perfectly using SonyEricsson Symbian based, HTC Windows Mobile based and iPhone and iPad.

Has anyone found out the reason of this and the solution?
