Why MediaPlayer throws NOT present error when creating instance of it?

Question

When creating an instance of MediaPlayer LogCat shows this error:

QCMediaPlayer mediaplayer NOT present

Why is that and is it normal?

Sample:

package com.example.testapp;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.os.Bundle;



public class MainActivity extends Activity{


    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
    }
}

Answer 1

It means your platform does not support QCMediaPlayer. QCMediaPlayer provides extended APIs and interfaces to get and set MPD attributes for DASH protocol in compatible Snapdragon builds. So, this error should not affect on media playing in normal case
