I have a listlayout with items in it that looks like this:
There is first an ImageView (the light) and then two textViews. All of this inside a TableLayout. (source here: http://code.google.com/p/switchctrl/source/browse/trunk/android/res/layout/device_switch.xml)
I want to have a rotating animation of a loading indicator Ontop of this light when this particular device (light) performs an action or an action is performed on it.
How do I put an animation ontop of this light imageview?
I am trying to code an app where you can paint (Finger paint) free hand on a running video in a VideoView.I have the two things running separately but not together.I can draw my paint on a balance screen and i can play my video on my videoView, which is implementer in an xml layout.Is there a way to overlay the xml videoview View with an other View which can be drawable?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a VideoView and I set a VideoURI that is basically http://foo.com/videoName?authentication=xyz When the url is hit, some authentication is processed, then the url gets redirected to rtsp://foo2.com/videoName.3gp for example.
The VideoView seems to not be able to follow the redirect to play the video. If I use the rtsp directly I can play the video though.
How to add an icon on the top of VideoView, I want my player VideoView window should contain the brand image of my player. How to add it to the VideoView.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I use the VideoView to play the RTSP streaming, the VideoView will buffering some cache buffer. Is there any method to tell the VideoView DON'T buffer? My code:
String VideoUri = "rtsp://192.168.5.121:6666/live/h264"; mVideoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.video_view); mVideoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(VideoUri)); mVideoView.start();
I am using VideoView to display a video in my app. The problem is that, once the layout gets created there is lag of almost 10-30 seconds before which the video starts to play. I can see in LogCat that the video is buffering during the lag. Is there a way I can minimize this lag, or tell MediaPlayer to play the video sooner?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have used videoview to play mp4 formate movie, but when start to play it, the videoview can't play smoothly, that means there have a little lag,
but in the: http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html the android support media formate have mp4..
the code is very simple,just like in the sample code...
VideoView video_view = new VideoView(context); video_view.setVideoPath("res/raw/movie.mp4"); video_view.setMediaController(new MediaController(context)); video_view.requestFocus(); video_view.start();
Seems simple, but even with video files that I've seen work in other video players on the phone, I keep getting the "Sorry, this video cannot be played" message. And this associated debug info: INFO/MediaPlayer-JNI(234): prepareAsync: surface=0x1a3ff0 (id=1) ERROR/MediaPlayer(234): Error (-4,0) DEBUG/VideoView(234): Error: -4,0
what those errors mean or how I can fix this? If this is not how I should be using VideoView please let me know. I'd appreciate being sent in the right direction for how to get a local video file playing within a view.
I'm confused about how VideoView can be used to play video: from a local file, as progressive download and streaming. This example work for me (on 1.5 and 2.0 at least) by downloading the file and playing it locally. But is it necessary to download the video before playing: is it possible to play video as progressive download, or by streaming, simply by using setVideoPath or setVideoURI, as in VideoViewDemo in the API samples?
The VideoViewDemo code suggests using setVideoURI for streaming, but I'm not clear what kind of URL I should be using. Does someone have an example URL for a video that can be streamed to the Android emulator using the VideoViewDemo code? Can progressive download be used with VideoViewDemo? I get a 'sorry, this video cannot be played' message using setVideoPath with URLs that work fine with the blog example linked to above.(Is this a problem in the emulator? I've tried 1.5 and 2.0.)
Our video server protect video data with cookie authentication. Video player app must authenticate and store session key to cookie strage before access to video server. First, My android video player app access to authentication server using HttpClient class in android library. Next, app access to video server with HttpClient's cookie data. But I think HttpClient can't pass cookie data to VideoView.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a bit of a problem with a SlidingDrawer that I created and that should go over my VideoView. When the activity is opened for the first time you can see the slider above the video and when you tap it, it slides open. However, as soon as you close the slider it seems to disappear underneath the VideoView and is not visible anymore. It is still there and when you tap the location where the handle is located the slidingDrawer reappears, but I would rather prefer if it wasn't hiding all the time ;) If anyone knows what I can do about that and help me out, that would be really fantastic because I have been trying for hours now and I have no idea what I should do. I also haven't found a similar issue or a solution for that.
This here is the xml code for the videoview and the slidingDrawer:

I have a ListView with information about videos. Once a row is selected, I use a ViewFlipper to show the VideoView. If I go back to the listview (I have a button), the videoview keeps playing. How can I stop the video and hide the videoview when I go back to the listview?

VideoView cannot play long path video issue: Bug#8699
enviroment: Platform 2.0 simulator and G2 H/W.
If setVideoPath("/data/data/com.abc.android.abcd/Transformers.mp4");
It can play well.
While, If setVideoPath("/data/data/com.abc.android.abcd/content/ Transformers.mp4");
It cannot play.
Btw: familiar things occured when I display the jpeg file
bit = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(fileName); mImgView.setImageBitmap(bit);
If the fileName is /data/data/com.abc.android.abcd/content/2.jpeg It cannot display
While, If the fileName is /data/data/com.abc.android.abcd/2.jpeg It display well.
I got a question is it possible in Android to load the video data into a VideoView without it instantly starting to play?? If so, how could I do that?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got an Activity with two views set up in a ViewFlipper. One of the views is a layout with a GLSurfaceView and a few other widgets, the other just has a layout with a TextView and a VideoView. When I click on something in the GLSurfaceView, the ViewFlipper swaps so the video can play. In this screenshot, you can see the plain GLSurfaceView rendering a map on the left. On the right is what it looks like after the ViewFlipper has flipped and the video starts playing. The empty transparent area where the GLSurfaceView shows through is where the video is supposed to be. I can hear it playing through the speaker and the timeline is moving forward, so I know it's playing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using VideoView to play an RTSP video stream. It works fine, however on my Android phone the audio lags the video by about 3 seconds. If I watch it on my computer with VLC both the audio and video are in sync. Has anyone else experienced this audio delay before and how might I go about correcting it on the phone.
