android Media Player stopped working.

Question

Last night, my app was working just fine streaming audio files with the MediaPlayer in my app. I came into work this morning and it wont play any audio file and I havent changed my code at all. here is the error log that it is printing out via LogCat. Also, the audio file still exists and plays fine on anything else.

Answer 1

Are you asking why this happened or what you should do? Or how to find the cause?

What is your question?

Answer 2

The problem ended up being, that the libsyn server was redirecting the urls. which apparently doesnt work in 2.2 froyo. anyway i had to write a HEAD request that followed the redirects and return the final url.
