Android Question SimpleExoPlayer Error Code 403

[Ivan Leal]

Hello everyone.

I'm trying to play a short video through SimpleExoPlayer using a URL and I get the following message:

Error: com.google.android.exoplayer2.upstream.HttpDataSource$InvalidResponseCodeException: Response code: 403

The file permissions are set unrestricted.

The command line is:
sources.Add(player1.CreateUriSource("http://www.forestsoftware.com.br/nicholas/Conteudos/Landscape - 757.mp4"))


Anyone have any ideas?

Try this:

sources.Add(player1.CreateUriSource("link here".Replace(" ", "%20")))

Great Erel!!!

Thank's a lot for the tip. It worked.

When I write complicated Uri:s, I always use the built-in StringUtils library which has a method for these purposes, namely EncodeURL

Note that you cannot encode the full url as it will replace the slashes.

True, on second thoughts I encode specific parts of the Url
