Audio Does Not Play

[theladyjaye]

There's just a comment in the source code stating that it should play at this point but no implementation.

When pressing PLAY button having actually this log

           2014-07-26 00:29:52.638 MiniPlayer[7326:303] Perform playback for track with info: { bitrate: 320, codec: MP3, location: rtmp://edgecast-fmstream.mndigital.com, resource: mp3:/mp3/mn_mp3_13_08/downloads/a070/089/421/89421907_017?48d882e51ff49ca3806e4b63d90b926556349db16cecf61947a8ee994efbb8ec779a, type: audio_asset }

but no playback starts on the Mac.

In fact in the code I have

     // Get the stream info for the track
    [track getRTMPStreamWithCompletion:^(DSYRTMPObject *rtmpStreamInfo, NSError *error) {
    if( error )
    {
        NSLog(@"API error fetching track, refresh token");
    }
    else
    {

        // Perform playback with this RTMP stream's info
        NSLog(@"Perform playback for track with info: %@",rtmpStreamInfo);

       // what should happen here?

    }
}];

@loretoparisi @aventurella If either of you are still interested in this, I've resurrected this project and added VLCKit as an RTMP Stream player. You can find my branch here: https://github.com/bjtitus/mac-miniplayer

@bjtitus thanks! I ended up doing the same thing re: VLCKit. Considering Apple doesn't have a single web service API exposed for developers, I am actually really curious how long the Beats API will actually last.

I was working on this a long time ago and decided it was a ridiculous amount of work to implement an RTMP player. Glad @bjtitus found VLCKit.

@aventurella I think they just put it out for PR, and enabled private endpoints for select partners.

@syedhali Of course I would be curious to know what library the beats music app for iOS uses to do RTMP.

@bjtitus amazing great work!
