[android-developers] Re: Streaming Wav Audio Error: MediaPlayer Prepare failed status=0x1

The sad truth is that you can't expect WAV http streaming to work on
all phones.
Some may work but not others.
MediaPlayer is very limited for audio http streaming and has all kind
of issues.
AAC and MP3 kind of works (with issues) and that's it.
It's so bad that most apps serious about http streaming will use
something else, often ffmpeg.
To play streamed WAV I've had to implement it myself (it is not very
difficult), feeding an AudioTrack.
