使用MediaElement在Windows Phone 8上流音频

Question

I'm trying to stream audio from an online source to a Windows Phone 8 app using MediaElement.

I have the MediaElement in the visual tree and it works with local files but when I try to use files via a URL nothing plays and I get a MediaFailed exception. The media failed error has the code 3100. It neither worked with AAC or MP3 but worked with video.

My code:

sound.Source = new Uri(url, UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute);
      sound.MediaFailed += sound_MediaFailed;
      sound.AutoPlay = true;

Maybe it isn't possible to do it this way, but if anyone could help it'd be appreciated.

UPDATE:

The file I've tried to use is http://rapidshare.com/files/2276097672/firework.aac . This file works locally on the phone but not online. Maybe I've misunderstood and I can't stream directly from this web location.

Answer 1

The file was inaccessible. Not really an answer as it's a stupid mistake but the problem has been solved.
