I keep getting an an error when trying to call WowZa GoCoder SDK's PlayerActivity and I am unable to understand the cause. The error appears when mStreamPlayerView.play(mStreamPlayerConfig, statusCallback) is called. Would really appreciate help on where i am going wrong

The error I get is;
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.wowza.gocoder.sdk.sampleapp/com.wowza.gocoder.sdk.sampleapp.PlayerActivity}: java.lang.RuntimeException: Invalid surface: null
You start the stream in onCreate. At this time the Surface used by WOWZPlayerView is not ready yet and the app crashes with the 'Invalid surface' error.
If you look at the sample test in the GoCoder SDK, the playback is started when the user clicks a button. Eg. when the Surface is valid.
Create a button and move your 'mStreamPlayerView.play(mStreamPlayerConfig, statusCallback);' to the button.onClick.
Or ... use any GoCoder SDK v1.7 and more recent.
Please, let me know if I can help any further.
Thanks
I want to show string from another string in my MainActivity, but the string is getting printed in console. Here is my code:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button start;
public TextView showText;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
showText= (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView);
start = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button);
start.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
RetrieveFeedTask click1 = new RetrieveFeedTask();
click1.execute();
showText.setText(click1.getString());
}
});
}
}
And the class:
class RetrieveFeedTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, String> {
static final String API_URL = "http://numbersapi.com/random/trivia?json";
private Exception exception;
public String finalString;
protected void onPreExecute() { }
protected String doInBackground(Void... urls) {
try {
URL url = new URL(API_URL );
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
try {
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(urlConnection.getInputStream()));
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
while ((finalString = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
stringBuilder.append(finalString).append("\n");
}
bufferedReader.close();
return stringBuilder.toString();
}
finally{
urlConnection.disconnect();
}
}
catch(Exception e) {
Log.e("ERROR", e.getMessage(), e);
return null;
}
}
protected void onPostExecute(String response) {
if(response == null) {
response = "THERE WAS AN ERROR";
}
try {
JSONObject object = (JSONObject) new JSONTokener(response).nextValue();
finalString = object.getString("text");
Log.i("Here",finalString);
} catch (JSONException e) {
}
}
public String getString() {
return this.finalString;
}
}
You require the finalString before it's populated with your data. the onPostExecute is executed after the doInBackground so you should pass your text view to your task and set it's value in the onPostExecute
public TextView showText;
public RetrieveFeedTask(TextView showText) { this.showText = showText; }
protected void onPostExecute(String response) {
if(response == null) {
response = "THERE WAS AN ERROR";
}
try {
JSONObject object = (JSONObject) new JSONTokener(response).nextValue();
finalString = object.getString("text");
showText.setText(finalString ); // add this
Log.i("Here",finalString);
} catch (JSONException e) {
}
}
The problem is that showText.setText(click1.getString()); of your activity is called earlier than finalString = object.getString("text"); of your task.
Solution:
Create an interface:
public interface DataCallback {
void onNewData(String data);
}
and implement it in your activity:
public class MainActivity extends ... implements DataCallback
public void onNewData(String data) {
showText.setText(data);
}
Pass the interface to your asynctask when you create it:
RetrieveFeedTask click1 = new RetrieveFeedTask(this);
Call the interface inside the task in onPostExecute() to notify the activity that there is new data:
JSONObject object = (JSONObject) new JSONTokener(response).nextValue();
finalString = object.getString("text");
callback.onNewData(finalString);

Trying to get a file from URL into InputStream element (with AsyncTask) and then use it, but so far unsuccessful. Are the parameters right for AsyncTask? Can I check InputStream like I did in my code or is it wrong and it will always return null? Any other changes I should make?
My code:
String url = "https://www.example.com/file.txt";
InputStream stream = null;
public void load() {
DownloadTask downloadTask = new DownloadTask();
downloadTask.execute(url);
if (stream == null) {
//fail, stream == null
} else {
//success
}
}
class DownloadTask extends AsyncTask <String, Integer, InputStream> {
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
}
#Override
protected InputStream doInBackground(String... params){
try {
URL url = new URL(url);
stream = url.openStream();
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return stream;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(InputStream result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
}
}
EDIT2:
I fixed it.
public void load(){
//some code
DownloadTask dt=new DownloadTask();
dt.execute("www.example.com");
}
private class DownloadTask extends AsyncTask<String,Integer,Void>{
InputStream text;
protected Void doInBackground(String...params){
URL url;
try {
url = new URL(params[0]);
HttpURLConnection con=(HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
InputStream is=con.getInputStream();
text = is;
}catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Void result){
//use "text"
}
}
you are using AsyncTask in the wrong way. Do all operations like download or server requests inside doInBackground(String... params) method.
Very important to know, that you should update your UI inside the onPostExecute(..) method. This method get called from UI-Thread.
Here is an example (pseudo code):
class DownloadTask extends AsyncTask <String, Integer, MyDownloadedData> {
private MyDownloadedData getFromStream(InputStream stream){
// TODO
return null;
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
}
#Override
protected MyDownloadedData doInBackground(String... params){
try {
URL url = new URL(url);
InputStream stream = url.openStream();
MyDownloadedData data = getFromStream(stream);
return data;
} catch (Exception e) {
// do something
}
return stream;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(MyDownloadedData data) {
//
// update your UI in this method. example:
//
someLabel.setText(data.getName());
}
protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... progress) {
//...
}
}
Well this code works fine in java but when i started to run it on Android 4.0 emulator it crashes. While Debugging i noticed that it crushed on httpConn.connect(); line
public class GetStringFromUrl {
public static String getString(String urlPageAdress) throws Exception
{
URL url = new URL(urlPageAdress);
HttpURLConnection urlConn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
urlConn.setRequestProperty("Accept-Encoding", "UTF-8");
HttpURLConnection httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) urlConn;
httpConn.setAllowUserInteraction(false);
httpConn.connect(); //crashes on this line dunno know why
InputStream in = null;
if (httpConn.getContentEncoding() != null && httpConn.getContentEncoding().toString().contains("gzip")) {
in = new GZIPInputStream(httpConn.getInputStream());
} else {
in = httpConn.getInputStream();
}
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(in);
ByteArrayBuffer baf = new ByteArrayBuffer(1000);
int read = 0;
int bufSize = 1024;
byte[] buffer = new byte[bufSize];
while (true) {
read = bis.read(buffer);
if (read == -1) {
break;
}
baf.append(buffer, 0, read);
}
String body = new String(baf.toByteArray());
return body;
} }
method is used in Main Activity
public class MainActivity extends Activity{
ToggleButton toogleButton;
public final static String EXTRA_MESSAGE = "ru.kazartsevaa.table.MESSAGE";
int upDown;
int SpinnerCount;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
upDown=0;
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
public void onClick(View v) throws Exception
{ System.out.print(SpinnerCount);
// if(upDown==0) //0 - вылет 1 прилет
//{
switch (v.getId())
{
case R.id.UpDownButton:
{
//toogleButton = (ToggleButton) findViewById(R.id.UpDownButton);
// toogleButton.setOnCheckedChangeListener(this);
}
case R.id.SheremetievoButton:
{
Spinner SherSpinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.SheremetievoSpinner);
String SpinnerCount= SherSpinner.getItemAtPosition(SherSpinner.getSelectedItemPosition()).toString();
System.out.print(SpinnerCount);
new Thread(){ public void run() {
try {
String body = GetStringFromUrl.getString("www.xyz.com");
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
} }.start();
int crowd;
}
}
Note: After changing to new thread it stopped crushing but still writes
Are you doing this in the main thread? Should work if you execute this in a separate thread.
public void onClick(View v) {
try{
new Thread(){
public void run() {
GetStringFromUrl.getString("www.xyz.com");
}
}.start();
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
