Q:

How to create a music player for iPhone/iPad which can buffer and play songs from server?

I want to develop a music player for iPhone/iPad with the functionality:
-Buffer and Play MP3 songs from server(no downloading).
-Play.
-Pause.
-Stop.
-Adjust Volume(Slider).
-Song Status/ Playing time for Song(slider).
-Repeat Song.
-Shuffle Songs.
-In the center of the Music Player there must be eq like dancing bars with song etc.
I am using AVPlayer for this but it is giving me trouble with Adjust Volume,Stop,Song Timers etc. With AVPlayer only play/pause and buffering is working.
Even i have used AVAudioPlayer also and it was working fine with all the functionality i needed but with local files only, may be i don't know any method play songs from server in AVAudioPlayer.
Help me with any suggestions,examples,sample code or tutorial.   

A:

Playing an MP3 stream seems like it should be a straightforward task that the Cocoa APIs would handle easily.
