Get rtsp stream from Axis camera on Android

Question

I am trying to show the rtsp stream from an Axis camera to a media planner object, here is the code:

public class Rtsp extends Activity { String PATH_TO_STREAM = "rtsp://192.168.131.21/mpeg4/1/media.3gp"; private VideoView video; private MediaController ctlr; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); video=(VideoView)findViewById(R.id.video); ctlr=new MediaController(this); ctlr.setAnchorView(video); Uri videoUri = Uri.parse(PATH_TO_STREAM); video.setMediaController(ctlr); video.setVideoURI(videoUri); video.start(); }} 

I can correctly broadcast from VLC, but I get this error from Android:

 02-10 11:58:07.071: ERROR/PlayerDriver(31): Command PLAYER_PREPARE completed with an error or info PVMFErrResourceConfiguration 02-10 11:58:07.101: ERROR/MediaPlayer(432): error (1, -16) 02-10 11:58:07.101: ERROR/MediaPlayer(432): Error (1,-16) 02-10 11:58:07.101: DEBUG/VideoView(432): Error: 1,-16 02-10 11:58:07.121: WARN/PlayerDriver(31): PVMFInfoErrorHandlingComplete 02-10 11:58:07.711: WARN/InputManagerService(60): Starting input on non-focused client com.android.internal.view.IInputMethodClient$Stub$Proxy@43bfce30 (uid=10007 pid=106) 02-10 11:58:12.902: DEBUG/dalvikvm(106): GC freed 2635 objects / 150552 bytes in 314ms 

Any hint? Thanks

Call video.requestFocus(); before video.start(); . I think this will make your code work.
