Diggin MP3 Player

What the hell is this iPhone I keep hearing of!?

Haha.

Shoutcast streams coming soon. Keep in mind though, that's anywhere from 96-192kbps ... that adds up to a lot of data. So don't go stream happy, or you'll hit your 1GB cap.
 
....or anyway, I swear I saw that announced a week or so ago...
 
I have a Shoutcast app already written and ready to go (Nitoware Radio)except there's a hitch: the Android MediaPlayer object handles only "progressive download" MP3's, which audio streams aren't. If that hitch is overcome, you'll see my app and probably a half dozen others immediately.
 
Can't you just dump the stream to a file on the sdcard or even internal storage then call media player on that? I don't write in Java very much but isn't there some sort of file-like object you can use as a buffer and pass that to the media player if creating a file is sub-optimal?

I'd actually like to see you folks creating apps open-source your code and host it on code.google.com or sourceforge or something. I can't imagine people paying for a media player these days, especially one which plays free internet streams. If I knew Java I'd create one myself.. but I'm somewhat limited on that front.
 
Yeah...im guessing we will see it...after the new year when they can charge you for it.

Looks great though, im sure ill pick it up if the price is fair
