How does Helix Server work with android application? In android developers site i found that we can assign the url to MediaPlayer to stream the audio/video. But there is no specification about buffer size.. do i need to do any more coding on server side or in android application to get the streaming work for a specific buffer rate?

I am new to streaming.. Please enlighten me regarding this.. Thank you in advance..

I've not used Helix but since both Helix and Android has support for 3gpp PSS6 you shouldn't have to manage any buffering.

And you might want to take a look at http://www.realnetworks.com/uploadedFiles/products-services/Whitepaper-Enhanced-Rate-Control.pdf for further improving the video quality when streaming to mobile devices.
