i came out with this problem to, but i already managed to minimalist the gap time between the 2 media player.. when the 1st player is playing, you must call prepare() on the 2nd player ( in other thread ). then seek the currentPossision(), then play the 2nd player.

i know there still a gap between those player, but atleast, it's not that much..

hope this help.

Thanks Aggiornamento, i found this solution too, but it still have like 0.5-1 second gap, i'm keeping find an optimized solution, and i'm sure it exists, because several radio app on the market did realize it.

any solutions to the above problem?

Using 2 mediaplayer instances and jumping between the two results in either a jerk or overlap audio at the time of shift. Even though somtimes one might not notice it, but its not the acceptable.

Does using android native code help?

@ medicalfix

Thanks.

Did anyone find a solution for this problem?

@clarityisgood

at this moment, i guess Android still haven't do update about the media player which can support direct push byte array into the media player.

how do apps like tuneswiki or droidlive solve the problem - there must be an solution.
i'm working with 2 mediaplayers also but there is a tiny gap..

they might be making their own class using native programing written on C or C++, then using that class to support their needed, check this out about android native developer tools : http://developer.android.com/intl/de/sdk/ndk/index.html

Another approach could be using a local rtsp server.. but I don't really know how to code a rtsp-server
Any ideas?

You could use AudioTrack and play the buffer directly...

But you still need to decode mp3 to pcm... (And I don't know if we need to reinvent the well or not...)
