Android Question [SOLVED] - ExoPlayer - Not connecting when used in a "Default" B4A app.

[rleiman]

Greetings,

I have been using the original sample project that came with the ExoPlayer and modified it so I could stream a radio source from the web. That works perfectly. Since I was satisfied that I could stream the radio station, I created a new "default" app from scratch. I copy and pasted the code from the original ExoPlayer app to the new app. When I ran the new app, this error was posted in the Logs.

Error: com.google.android.exoplayer2.upstream.HttpDataSource$HttpDataSourceException: Unable to connect to http://128.199.109.254:8000/320

Since the original ExoPlayer sample project was created with an older version of B4A, I think some difference between that version and the current version of B4A could be causing the connection issue.

Can you check this coding and let me know what I need to change so it will work with new "default" projects because the same coding works in the original project?

Thanks.

You probably need to add this to the manifest to allow non-ssl connections (http):

CLEARTEXT communication to 192.168.0.101 not permitted by network security policy

Hi All, I tried to implement the JRDC2 implementation of Erel in one program. The implementation of Erel is in the below URL: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-jrdc2-b4j-implementation-of-rdc-remote-database-connector.61801/ I get the following error: ResponseError. Reason...
