Playing MP3 using File Connection & MM-API

[syson]

Hi i am trying to play the mp3 files which r on my media card. I can explore the media card using File Connection API. How can i create a player using the path of mp3 files on media card. I am using the following code to create player, when the mp3 file is included in the JAR file (works fine!)

InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/sounds/myfile.mp3");
Player p = Manager.createPlayer(is,"audio/mpeg");

Please tell me how to get Player object usimg the path of mp3 file from the media card. Please give the code sample lnes if possible. Thanx

Hi,

You may use fileconnection api to play files from the filesystem of the phone or from the media card.

Here is a tutorial on how to use fileconnection

Hi Syson,
The code you have written is to play the file kept in your sounds folder.For playing a file in the MMC you have to set up a file connection to the concerned file that you should play and then create the Input stream.
Thanks
