Android :: VideoView In ViewFlipper Is Transparent When Video Is Playing
Sep 10, 2010
I'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.

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?

I have a problem in playing video file in android using VideoView. When I keep the .3gp video file locally in res/raw folder, the video file plays successfully. But when I keep this same file on live web server and stream it, it runs on Android G1, Nexus one and Tatoo which I have for testing. But It fails to stream and play on Motorola milestone. I got the error on device as: 'This video is not valid for streaming'. What problem it should be, I am really seek of finding it. Is it the issue of programming or file format?

I am attempting to make a VideoView to obviously play videos on. When I use the following code though I get the error "Cannot cast from View to VideoView" on the marked line below.
public class VideoView extends Activity { private String video_link;
private VideoView video_view;
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.youtube_player);
video_view = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.video_view);
***ERROR "Cannot cast from View to VideoView"
Bundle video_bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
video_link = video_bundle.getString("LINK"); } }

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 can't figure out why am i not able to play the video in my VideoView. All i'm getting a message is Cannot Play Video : Sorry, this video cannot be played. I created an SD card for my emulator as well. Do i need to place me SD card in a particular folder in my SDK?

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 am using a VideoView to display a video. I am using setOnPreparedListener and setOnCompletionListener to do stuff before and after the video starts and ends.
I was wondering how I could go about detecting some point of time in the video. For eg, say I want to write log to a file when the video has played for 10s. How can I detect the 10s mark?

I have two Activities: one with VideoView attached to MediaPlayer and the second one.
I start watching a video in the first Activity, then during playback I start second Activity.
After going back to first Activity I can hear sound but see no picture.
My Video Layout...
Do you have any ideas why video doesn't appear?

How does Android handle scaling of a video being played within a VideoView?
So for example if I have a video that is say 480 X 270 (width and height), aspect ratio 16:9. And, say the VideoView is added to a LinearLayout with LayoutParams of (480, 270). What will be width and height of the rendered video in portrait orientation in a device that is 320 X 480? In landscape? In another device that is 320 X 550?

I am using the Alcatel OT-918d (stock rom, root access enabled) and while playing videos in the browser, I do not get an action prompt to choose from the available video players and browser plays the video using "default video player".
The so called "default video player" has been uninstalled though. Have cleared cache, clear defaults, clear data for the browser but still do not get a prompt to choose a video player while playing videos from the browser.
Also installed the "Default App Manager" to check for the default video player. However, it indicates no defaults to play any videos (either from file or streaming videos).
(If I play a stored video from phone or SD card, I do get the prompt to choose a video player. But do not get a prompt if playing any video in the browser.)

Using the Android SDK, is it possible to play a video stream using the MMS protocol I am streaming video from a PC using windows media. I can use Windows Media Player to play the stream by just inputting the following URL in Windows Media Player mms://192.168.223.194:8081. Is it possible to play the same stream using the Android SDK?

I have had this problem for a while, and my boyfriend has too. I have the moto droid and he has droid eris. When certain people send me picture messages and I touch them to open and view it plays as a video, the picture will play for a second and then go to black screen and then back to the messaging screen. It wasn't sent as a video message by the person so why is it "playing " instead of just letting me open it in the gallery and view it like most? I've searched google and other forums for an answer but still nothing.. its not a huge deal but I would like to fix it if possible.

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 have two simple programmes, server and client, both at localhost. What I want to do is to streaming the video from the server to the client through socket and the client can play it by using filediscriptor of the socket. First I try to send some message and the client can receive it. After that I send a few bytes of the video from the server'sd card to the client. The client can receive those bytes but cannot play it. Anyone know how to solve the problem?
Here is my server and client code snippets:

I plan to have a 3gp video file that will come with the installation package, it will be placed in /files/ subdirectory, and I would like to ask the native Android media player to play it when I want that.
Here is what I have planned to do/code:
Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri data = Uri.parse("BattlestarGalactica.3gp"); intent.setDataAndType(data,"video/3gpp"); startActivity(intent);
However, when I try to launch the lines above, I get the following error:
CODE:.............
And the video can not be played.
What am I doing wrong that is not applicable to Android platform?
