what is the media player uid in symbian^3 (N8 device)

Question

在我的应用程序中，我只想打开一个包含媒体的URL，例如http://www.test.com/test.mp3或 rstp：//www.test.com/test.3gp，所以我需要Symbian嵌入式媒体玩家的uid来打开它。

Answer 1

If you know the content type of the URL, you can discover the UID of the right application and launch it as detailed here .

There are other alternatives:

• CVideoPlayerUtility and CAudioPlayerUtility . Both have OpenUrl() methods.
• Use the streaming classes directly ( CMdaAudioOutStream and friends)

.. and there are other methods too. That all said, if you are targeting Symbian^3 onwards, you might be better off developing in QT - Symbian C++ can very much considered 'deprecated' for app development.

Answer 2

This is what I use for showing links:

_LIT( KTestUrlPrefix,"4 " );
HBufC* parameter = HBufC::NewLC( KTestUrlPrefix().Length() + aLink.Length() );
parameter->Des().Copy( KTestUrlPrefix );
parameter->Des().Append( aLink );
if(iLauncher)
{
    delete iLauncher;
    iLauncher = NULL;
}
iLauncher = CBrowserLauncher::NewL();
iLauncher->LaunchBrowserEmbeddedL( *parameter, NULL, NULL, iOverriddenSettings );
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy();

_LOGENTRY("web ad->");
