MEDIA_INFO_UNKNOWN

[rienafairefr]

Hi everyone, nice work on the app BTW !
The issue I have is this: whatever the streaming type (on 3G or wifi), sometimes, the streaming throws out a MEDIA_ERROR_UNKNOWN, which triggers an onTrackStreamError, and shows the toast string.stream_error, or sometimes an impossible to charge album info or something. I sometimes understand that the connection can be sketchy, especially when end of months throttled by the operator or whatnot. But that would be nice to have fallback plan to prevent playback from completely stopping. Sometimes when this happens, pushing the "stop" onscreen button and then play permits the track to finally play. Or have the fallback to begin downloading/caching the track so the streaming can happen from this cached track or whatnot. I'm no programmer so would be difficult to help you without creating a bunch more problems I would guess ;-)
Cheers !

Can you give a bit more on the platform? Phone, Android version..

Sure,
HTC Desire GSM running branded (Orange France) Froyo 2.2
Got the issue, have a look at a logcat below if needed. I'd say the issue lies in "PlayerEngineImpl fail, what (1) extra (-1004) " ;-)
This time stop/play didn't do anything. Skipping, the next song was playing ok, though.
