title: How do I play an mp3 in the res/raw folder of my android app?
body: <p>I have a small (200kb) mp3 in the res/raw folder of my android app. I am trying to run it in an emulator from Eclipse. It is recognized as a resource in the R file but when I try to prepare/start, my activity crashes! Was there something else I needed to change, perhaps in the manifest? </p>
  
  <pre>
  MediaPlayer mPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(FakeCallScreen.this, R.raw.mysoundfile);
  
  try {
  mPlayer.prepare();
  mPlayer.start();
  } catch (IOException e) {
  // handle this later
  }
  </pre>
