I am trying to play an mp3 audio file from sd card, using the path and the filename of the audio file to get its Uri.
I have a Spinner
populated with the tracks names stored in sd card.
When an item is selected, the following code will be executed:
final Uri uri = MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
OnItemSelectedListener listener = new OnItemSelectedListener(){
@Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parentView, View selectedItemView, int position, long id) {
TextView tv = (TextView) selectedItemView;
File file = new File(uri.getPath() + "/" + tv.getText().toString());
Log.i(TAG, "------------- PATH : " + file.getAbsolutePath());
Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(file);
MediaPlayer mP = new MediaPlayer();
try {
mP.setDataSource(context, uri);
mP.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
@Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mp.start();
}
});
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
mP.prepare();
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
};
I am getting the following errors:

Does anyone have any idea about it? Thanks in advance :)
Dude you have placed mP.prepare();
at wrong line
you need to call it after mP.setDataSource(context, uri);
function
and before mp.start();
Also not try to make several instances of MediaPlayer. Make one and use reset() function everytime before start.
Please see this link for more help.
