Android :: Playing YouTube Content In WebView
Oct 7, 2010
I have Java and plugins enabled. Why I can play many online flash videos in my webview, but nothing on m.youtube.com works? I would be more than satisfied with a workaround that passes the video to the YouTube application.

Can anyone help me to understand how WebView decided which content it can render and which it can't? For example I am inside a webview select a link and if the link sends an XML file I want my application to handle to data instead of WebView, Is this possible?

I am trying to get the webview's content on a bitmap so that i can save it as a image. But I am unable to so. I am getting the BLACK image save instead. All content is missing. Here is my code:
//create a webview WebView w = new WebView(this);
//Loads the url w.loadUrl("http://www.yahoo.com");
//After loading completely, take its picture Picture picture = w.capturePicture();
//Create a new canvas Canvas mCanvas = new Canvas();
//Draw the Picture into the Canvas picture.draw(mCanvas);
//Create a Bitmap Bitmap sreenshot = Bitmap.createBitmap(picture.getWidth(), picture.getHeight(),Config.ARGB_8888);
//copy the content fron Canvas to Bitmap mCanvas.drawBitmap(mBitmapScreenshot, 0, 0, null);
//Save the Bitmap to local filesystem if(sreenshot != null) {
ByteArrayOutputStream mByteArrayOpStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
screenshot.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, mByteArrayOpStream);
try { fos = openFileOutput("yahoo.jpg", MODE_WORLD_WRITEABLE);
fos.write(mByteArrayOpStream.toByteArray()); fos.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }

I am trying to create a hybrid Android app which pulls HTML content from a web server and renders it in a WebView. However, I also want the external HTML to be able to reference images that are packaged within the android app. I realize that currently it is not possible to do something like <img src="file:///my_image.jpg" /> in the HTML. I have seen discussions of using the ContentProvider to create name spaces in the html, however all of these examples seem to assume that the actual html page is also on the device and tend to use WebView.loadData(). So, is there someway that it is possible to do this? The main goal is to package all the application images/css in the android app, but put the bulk of the application on an external server that returns the actual markup.

When I place a Webview control in the content of a Tab, it is taking over the entire display! I have jacked around with the layout but I can't figure out how to "fit" the control on the tab. Is it possible to do this?

I tried WebView.getSettings().setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.SINGLE_COLUMN); but view crashed in 1.6 OS. I calculate scale(webview.capturePicture()) but I cannot set it after page loaded. Is it any working solution for fitting webview content to display (1.6 OS)?

Using WebViewClient and/or the WebChromeClient you can get a listener for when the page has loaded, however this is sometimes called before the WebView has any content in it, before it has displayed anything. What would be a efficient method for determining when the WebView has displayed it's content? When I load a page in a WebView, I want to set the scroll to a specific position. It seems that the scroll position cannot be set until the page is loaded and it has an actual content height. So, I have tried two different approaches to determining when the page has finished loading, onPageFinished() from the WebViewClient and also onProgressChanged() from the WebChromeClient.
Both of these tell me when the page has finished loading. However, the problem is that sometimes it is called before the page has been displayed and therefore the page has no height and the scroll call does nothing. I am trying to find a solid way to determine when the page is ready to be scrolled, i.e. when it has its content height. I imagine I could setup a checking loop after it finished loading to keep looking for when the height is available but that seemed like quite the hack. Hoping there is a cleaner way.

On my Pre I am able to download content off of Youtube and store it on my phone to watch whenever I want. Does Android allow you to do this? Specifically, is it possible on the Epic or Evo?

I am getting some HTML text from a remote server which I am displaying inside a WebView. I need to format the text display and set a font size and color for the WebView. The only way I can think of is: pre-pending the HTML string received with a tag and specify the font information there. What is the correct way to do this?

Most of the time when I click on a link to a YouTube clip it takes me to the YouTube web page where it tells me I need to have flash installed. I'm pretty sure once I clicked a link and it gave me the option to open it in a browser or the YouTube app, but now I'm no longer getting that option. Is there a way to make YouTube videos open in the app everytime?

I'm trying to very quickly port over an html application with plays sound (with soundmanager2) to a native android app using WebView. From my research, I haven't seen any evidence that sound, such as mp3s, can be played via javascript or any other methods using WebView.
My goal now is to quickly port over the html app and then eventually create a truely native application without using WebViews.
If anyone has been able to successfully implement playing audio using WebViews and Javascript or if this is just not possible at this time.

My application generates an HTML file which needs to be displayed to the user . For this purpose I'm using the loadData() API provided by Webview. This HTML file is updated every 2 secs & the same is loaded again using loadData() to display the updated values. On reloading the file the Webview starts displaying again from the top of the file causing the user to always scroll down to the location where he previously was. This causes a very bad user experience. To overcome this issue an alternative that I could think of was to split the file to multiple files that can exactly fit in the the screen. For this I need to find the height of the HTML content that can loaded in a web view. From the WebView documentation I found that an API getContentHeight() is provided for this purpose. Although this method returns me 0 on the first attempt. On subsequent attempt it gives me the height of the page that was previously loaded.

I am experimenting with using a WebView to display Flash content inside my activity. Everything is working pretty well, but when the user hits the home key to put the activity into the background, the Flash content keeps running (sound keeps playing, etc)
I have noticed that both the stock Android browser and Dolphin Browser seem to avoid this problem, and properly pause the Flash content when the browsing activity is put into the background.
Ideally I would like a solution that kills the WebView completely if the activity is finishing, but pauses it otherwise (basically copying the default behavior of the browser)
Here is a simple test I put together that loads a game on Kongregate which has some background music:
CODE:..............
I took a look at the latest source for the stock browser, and it seems to be doing something similar (calling pauseTimers/resumeTimers), although I fear the code I have been looking at is out of date, because it is calling functions that don't seem to exist anymore.
I did verify that the call to pauseTimers is working by testing with a simple JavaScript setInterval which updates a counter. Is there something else obvious that I should be trying in regard to Window or View management?
The documentation for the mobile Flash player says:
Flash Player will also automatically pause SWF playback it is not in view or the foreground application, for example when a call is received or alarm goes off, to reduce CPU utilization, battery usage and memory usage.
This seems to be working perfectly in both the stock browser and Dolphin Browser, but not in my app. Any ideas/solutions would be greatly appreciated!
Update: Here is the function we ended up adding to our activity to get this to work. We call it with "onPause" in the activity's onPause function and "onResume" in the activity's onResume function:

Step 1: I am subclassing WebView and rendering html content properly. The intial content is very small with a div and image /link This is displayed in a LInear Layout along with a TextView and ListView. That is my first screen/activity of the application.
Step 2: When I click on a link on this webview, it goes through the webViewclient and expands to full screen to fit the content of the requested page.
After Step 2, I am not able to go back to my activity screen once the content is displayed. When I click on the back button to getback to my activity screen close my activity and goes to the phone's applications desktop. (i.e goes out of my application).
Step 3: In order to fix this issue, I stopped setting my own subclasssed WebViewClient. After doing this, the it seems to render the clicked page in a webView as subactivity. Now When I click on backbutton, it goes back to the activity screen. But, the issue now is, I am not catch event when a link is clicked. How can I catch click events in this case.

I have code that will bring up a Youtube video on their webpage and the user has to then tap the play option to play it:

This works fine but what I would really like is to have the video come up in the player on the phone immediately without the user ending up on the webpage and having to tap the play option.

I was tried for RTSP stream for a long time, finally I could success to play the RTSP stream from mobile Youtube website:
http://m.youtube.com/
My approach is to copy the stream link and paste it in my code, then, there are sometimes success to work(play) on Android and sometimes will not. I can't figure out why? Is something wrong about Youtube server? Because my code is just the same, and only change is the stream link URL. I used VideoView widget and my Android platform is sdk 1.5 and under x86-based, so I really want to know why and how can I solved for this. This is the logcat when I can't work for the video stream.
