Sample code, tutorials, anything?</p> <p>The closest I've found is: <a href="http://www.blackberry.com/knowledgecenterpublic/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/348583/800332/1089414/How_To_-_Play_video_within_a_BlackBerry_smartphone_application.html?nodeid=1383173&amp;vernum=0" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.blackberry.com/knowledgecenterpublic/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/348583/800332/1089414/How_To_-_Play_video_within_a_BlackBerry_smartphone_application.html?nodeid=1383173&amp;vernum=0</a></p> <p>The above tutorial, but it has several problems:</p> <p>First, the sample code it gives is for a local video (which I can successfully play). It claims that "any valid URL" will work for HTTP streaming, but this is patently false, as supplying a known good .sgp URL does nothing. </p> <p>The createPlayer method has the ability to accept an InputStream, which sounded promising, so I modified the sample code to have the lines:</p> <pre><code> // player = Manager.createPlayer("file:///SDCard/eggs.3gp"); HttpConnection c = (HttpConnection)Connector.open("http://good-3gp-videos.com/viapic/e39903da6e5c1e1c5d572a49a88a99e6.3gp"); int rc = c.getResponseCode(); if (rc != HttpConnection.HTTP_OK) { throw new IOException("HTTP response code: " + rc); } player = Manager.createPlayer(c.openInputStream(), null); player.realize(); </code></pre> <p>Instead of the previous player created from a string (commented out in my source).</p> <p>This however, gets me the exact same problem (specifically, attempting to play the video gets me a "JUM Error 104: Uncaught NullPointer Exception". )</p> <p>It seems that both ways I attempt to read from a URL are getting me a Null response.</p> <p>This is my first Blackberry App, so I'm not very familiar with how to debug it (for example, several times there is a System.out.println() call in the sample code, but I never see it displayed on the console.</p> <p>How would I go about debugging the code, or alternatively, what is the correct way to stream HTTP video?</p> <hr> <p>Modifying the code slightly, (adding a cast to Stream Connection) gets rid of my null pointer error, but even though nothing crashes, and there are no exceptions, it's still not streaming.</p> <p>I have indeed heard that the simulators cannot stream, but putting the code on a phone doesn't work for me either.</p> <p>Even more confusing, neither my simulator or my actual phone can stream RTSP from m.youtube, which I've heard works. I get a server/content not found error. </p> <p>Is it possible that my workplace's firewall is preventing something important from happening?</p>
