Remarks

Convenience method to create a MediaPlayer for a given Uri. On success, #prepare() will already have been called and must not be called again.

You must call #release() when you are finished using the created instance. Doing so frees any resources you have previously acquired.

Note that since #prepare() is called automatically in this method, you cannot change the audio session ID (see #setAudioSessionId(int)) or audio attributes (see #setAudioAttributes(AudioAttributes) of the new MediaPlayer.
