Android Question Graphic equalizer

[Shay]

Hi,
I need to monitor if radio station is running (is generating sound) on remote device, without the ability to be on device location. (issue is that radio is stopping from playing, while I don't see any reason in the code)
Is there any way to add graphic equalizer so I can know if remote device is generating any sound?
or any other way to "see" the sound?

more specific - why service is probably stop working, since I don't see it enter the timer after few days

 

[Shay]

I found something (not sure if this is my original issue)
if player is playing, and it lost the internet connection
even if timer issue player.play it will not start playing.

solved the above issue by adding:
player1.Prepare(player1.CreateUriSource(station))

now will compile and upload to TV, and wait..

@Erel - app still stop playing after X time, still unknown what happens + does not look like it crashing

 

[Erel]

Are you using MediaPlayerStream for the playback? Are you handling the StreamError and the Complete events?

What is the value of mp.IsPlaying when it stops playing?

 

[Shay]

I am using echo player per your recommendation,
source code is attached on page 1 (bit old)
let me know if newer code is needed

I added inside the timer, http post that will write my DB, time stamp so I will know if timer is stop working

You should handle ExoPlayer's Complete and Error events.

it stopped again, when timer is running (doing it's stuff every 10min) it is sending log to my server.
and yesterday night it stopped sending (as I see always)
I have logs everywhere, so it did not crash, player did not crash, service did not destroy etc..
the timer is just stop working after X hours (I think 2-3 days)

Maybe the OS killed it for some reason.
