Android MediaPlayer错误1，-1002

Question

I am creating an app that plays mp4 video files , but when I try to play an specific file I get this error:

D/MediaPlayer(12605): Couldn't open file on client side, trying server side
E/MediaPlayer(12605): error (1, -1002)
E/MediaPlayer(12605): Error (1,-1002)
D/VideoView(12605): Error: 1,-1002

I tried to search info about the error here , but I didn't find anything very clarifying. Does anyone know what this error means?

Thanks in advance!

Error codes depends on the player, for StageFright -1002 means "unknown host".

See media/stagefright/MediaErrors.h

  enum {
     MEDIA_ERROR_BASE        = -1000,

     ERROR_ALREADY_CONNECTED = MEDIA_ERROR_BASE,
     ERROR_NOT_CONNECTED     = MEDIA_ERROR_BASE - 1,
     ERROR_UNKNOWN_HOST      = MEDIA_ERROR_BASE - 2,
