New problem with S40 : fastforward is not working

[manojkumar.m]

Hi friends,

I have written a small player. It has the controls like fastForward and fastBackward.

the code looks like:
public void skip(boolean backwards)
{

if (player != null)
{
try
{
long mTime = player.getMediaTime();
long jump = 10000000;
if (backwards)
{
setMediaTime(mTime-jump);

}
else
{
setMediaTime(mTime+jump);
}
}
catch (IllegalStateException ise)
{

}
}
public void setMediaTime(long time)
{
if (player == null)
{
return;
}
try
{
player.stop();
player.setMediaTime(time);
player.start();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
}
}


I am getting null pointer exception in Nokia 6300 which is S40.
But when I run the same code on E61i, its working fine.
Is there any limitation on S40 for media controls?
or
Am I doing any wrong?
Please help me.


Thanks,
Manoj.

Hi Manoj,

where are you exactly having the NullPointerException? Are you sure it is thrown by the code portion you've posted?

hi jappit,

The same code which I posted here worked fine on Nokia E61i, but not on Nokia 6300.

I am not understanding why I am getting the exception.

can you please help me.

Thanks,
Manoj.

please, check first the exact point when you get the null pointer exception as jappit above asks...

Check also what is the mTime value you get from the player object and the return value of setMediaTime? Have you also implemented the setMediaTime in the same class where the skip method is as you call setMediaTime and not player.setMediaTime

Hi,

I'm creating a player in Java for S40 5th edition and have some problems with setmediaTime(). It does not work. Does some one have an example program for fastforward, rewind and setMediaTime() for S40?

Hi all,
I'm having the same problem on a Nokia 6600 fold: the setMediaTime call is simply not working.
The undeliying source is rtsp.
I tried calling setMediaTime while playing or pausing then setMediaTime.

Any update on that?
Thanks
