I am trying to make use of MediaPlayer class for playing a video file. The problem is video is not getting displayed at all though I can hear the sound in the video playing.
Following is the code of activity
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
private SurfaceView surfaceView;
private Button btnPlay;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
init();
addListener();
}
private void init() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
surfaceView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.surfaceView1);
btnPlay = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnPlay);
}
private void addListener() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
btnPlay.setOnClickListener(this);
}
MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = null;
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.btnPlay:
try{
if (mediaPlayer != null) {
mediaPlayer.reset();
mediaPlayer.release();
}else{
getWindow().setFormat(PixelFormat.UNKNOWN);
MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.wildlife);
SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder = surfaceView.getHolder();
surfaceHolder.setFixedSize(176, 144);
surfaceHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_PUSH_BUFFERS);
mediaPlayer.setDisplay(surfaceHolder);
mediaPlayer.start();}
}catch (Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), e.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}
Following is the code of layout xml
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<SurfaceView
android:id="#+id/surfaceView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnPlay"
style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/surfaceView1"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/surfaceView1"
android:text="#string/play" />
</RelativeLayout>
please tell me what needs to be done?
Thanks in advance.
You can override the onSizeChanged() function of the SurfaceView class to get and set the size of the view.
protected void onSizeChanged (int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh)
When ever the screen size has changed, this class is called.
As a second alternative, you may be able to set the size by setting the layout parameters (unsure if this works with ScrollView):
#Override
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams lp = this.getLayoutParams();
lp.width = 1000; // required width
lp.height = 1000; // required height
this.setLayoutParams(lp);
}
set surface View height and width to fill parent in xml file.
<SurfaceView
android:id="#+id/surfaceView1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" />
Setting your SurfaceView layout to wrap_content will not size a video to play at the proper aspect ratio.
You can refer to this answer link
https://stackoverflow.com/a/6283676/1441666
And also this blog Play media on surfaceview using android.media.MediaPlayer
Well, I don't know if you need an specific situation, but have you already tried FullscreenVideoView?
It tries to abstracts all those SurfaceView problems and you can focus only in UI buttons. As It's open, you can subclass FullscreenVideoView and customize as you need.

It takes too long to start a video and in the console I get this error again and again until the video finally start:
I/NuPlayerRenderer: possible video time jump of 0ms or uninitialized media clock, retrying in 100ms
Here is my Activity class:
public class EntryView extends AppCompatActivity implements SurfaceHolder.Callback {
SurfaceView imageLogo;
MediaPlayer mp;
#Override
protected void attachBaseContext(Context newBase) {
ContextWrapper contextWrapper = CalligraphyContextWrapper.wrap(newBase);
super.attachBaseContext(contextWrapper);
}
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
overridePendingTransition(0, 0);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_entry);
imageLogo = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.image_logo);
imageLogo.getHolder().addCallback(this);
mp = new MediaPlayer();
ButterKnife.bind(this);
}
// UI CALLBACKS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#OnClick({R.id.button_login, R.id.button_register_normal})
void openScreen(View v) {
Intent intent = null;
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.button_login:
intent = new Intent(EntryView.this, LoginView.class);
break;
case R.id.button_register_normal:
intent = new Intent(EntryView.this, RegisterView.class);
break;
}
startActivity(intent);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_in_from_right, R.anim.scale_out);
}
#Override
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
Uri video = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/"
+ R.raw.sample);
try {
mp.setDataSource(this, video);
mp.prepare();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
//Get the dimensions of the video
int videoWidth = mp.getVideoWidth();
int videoHeight = mp.getVideoHeight();
//Get the width of the screen
int screenWidth = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getWidth();
//Get the SurfaceView layout parameters
android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams lp = imageLogo.getLayoutParams();
//Set the width of the SurfaceView to the width of the screen
lp.width = screenWidth;
//Set the height of the SurfaceView to match the aspect ratio of the video
//be sure to cast these as floats otherwise the calculation will likely be 0
lp.height = (int) (((float)videoHeight / (float)videoWidth) * (float)screenWidth);
//Commit the layout parameters
imageLogo.setLayoutParams(lp);
//Start video
mp.setDisplay(holder);
mp.setLooping(true);
mp.start();
}
#Override
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width, int height) {
}
#Override
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {
}

As you can see I am using a SurfaceView but I tried as well with VideoView and I get the same problem. The video just have 1,5MB for and it takes 30 seconds so it is not a really big one.
EDIT
I forgot to tell that is a mp4 video. I am not sure if this has something to do but just in case.
this is my layout :
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/frameLayout1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center" >
<VideoView
android:id="#+id/geoloc_anim"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="top|center"
android:visibility="visible" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/placeholder"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
</FrameLayout>
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
this is my activity code:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity implements OnPreparedListener {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
getSupportActionBar().hide();
VideoView mVideoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.videoview);
Uri uri = Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName()+"/raw/lst2");
mVideoView.setVideoURI(uri);
mVideoView.requestFocus();
mVideoView.setZOrderOnTop(true);
mVideoView.start();
}
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
mp.setOnInfoListener(new MediaPlayer.OnInfoListener() {
#Override
public boolean onInfo(MediaPlayer mp, int what, int extra) {
View placeholder = (View) findViewById(R.id.placeholder);
if (what == MediaPlayer.MEDIA_INFO_VIDEO_RENDERING_START) {
// video started; hide the placeholder.
placeholder.setVisibility(View.GONE);
return true;
}
return false;
}
});
}
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width,int height) {
}
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
}
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {
}
}
It works fine on android 4.2 but it doesn't work properly on android 2.3 . on android 2.3 , the first time it opens it works find but when close the app and open it again ,a black screen comes , something like this :
and after one minute or so , it goes from a black screen to a white screen but still nothing plays .
Could you help me to solve this problem ?
Very late answer. But surely it helps anyone.
set videoView.setZOrderOnTop(true) before start().
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceView.html#setZOrderOnTop(boolean)
videoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(uriString));
videoView.setZOrderOnTop(true);//this line solve the problem
videoView.start();
I resolved this with toggling alpha for VideoView:
public class VideoPlayer extends VideoView {
....
public VideoPlayer(Context context) {
super(context);
init();
}
public void init() {
setAlpha(0); // hides view
setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
mp.setOnInfoListener(new MediaPlayer.OnInfoListener() {
#Override
public boolean onInfo(MediaPlayer mp, int what, int extra) {
if (what == MediaPlayer.MEDIA_INFO_VIDEO_RENDERING_START) {
setAlpha(1); // shows view
return true;
}
return false;
}
});
}
});
I guess you can do the same if you have external VideoView and have access to it.
This code works for me, code tested on android nougat.
No require additional code in your java file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_gravity="center"
tools:context=".SecondaryDisplay"
android:background="#color/black">
<VideoView
android:id="#+id/videoView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
</RelativeLayout>
you need in onPrepared change the Window content! like show toask or other,e.g
#Override
public void onPrepared(final MediaPlayer mp) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"onPrepared",ToasLENGTH_SHORT).show();
mVideoView.setZOrderOnTop(false);
mVideoView.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
}
remove the mVideoView.start() and change your onPrepared to start your video,
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
mp.start();
..............
I do not have a device with android less than 4.2 to test with, but this is how I start videos with my application
Maybe to late, but I found a solution that worked for me. I combined answers from Sagar Limbani and faljbour
videoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(path));
videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
#Override
public void onPrepared(final MediaPlayer mp) {
mp.start();
new Handler().post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if(mp.getCurrentPosition() != 0){
View placeholder = findViewById(R.id.placeholder);
placeholder.setVisibility(View.GONE);
} else {
new Handler().postDelayed(this, 50);
}
}
});
}
});
It worked for android 5.1, 5.0 and 4.0
I had the same issue. I found that the main reason for that was the use of FrameLayout as the parent layout. Use RelativeLayout as the parent layout of the VideoView
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/frameLayout1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center" >
<VideoView
android:id="#+id/geoloc_anim"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="top|center"
android:visibility="visible" />
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/placeholder"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
</FrameLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
You can solve this by using custom VideoPlayer extends VideoView
public class VideoPlayer extends VideoView {
public VideoPlayer(Context context) {
super(context);
init();
}
#Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
TyrooLog.i(TAG, "onMeasure");
int width = getDefaultSize(videoWidth, widthMeasureSpec);
int height = getDefaultSize(videoHeight, heightMeasureSpec);
if (videoWidth > 0 && videoHeight > 0) {
if (videoWidth * height > width * videoHeight) {
TyrooLog.i(TAG, "video too tall, correcting");
height = width * videoHeight / videoWidth;
} else if (videoWidth * height < width * videoHeight) {
TyrooLog.i(TAG, "video too wide, correcting");
width = height * videoWidth / videoHeight;
} else {
TyrooLog.i(TAG, "aspect ratio is correct: " + width+"/"+height+"="+mVideoWidth+"/"+mVideoHeight);
}
}
TyrooLog.i(TAG, "setting size: " + width + 'x' + height);
setMeasuredDimension(width, height);
}
}
I faced a similar issue and found that adding mp.seekTo(1); in the onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) method fixed it.
I have seen several posts with the same issue, but I still can't fix my issue. I am using surfaceview, fragments and mediaplayer to play a mp4 video. I get audio, but no video. The video does play with no issues outside of the application. I have tried different formats, but no luck. I am not using an emulator. I am using a Samsung Galaxy Tab2 to test. What am I missing to show video?
Here is my XML file:

try using videoview - it is possible that the device you are using to display the video, does not support the format in mediaplayer object, i solved this problem with videoview
My Question has 2 parts.
How(any tutorial would be perfect) can I play video in Android view which is not full screen?
Can I resize and change position of that view while the video is playing.
For this kind of video manipulation you definitely should have a look at TextureView.
This view can be used to render a video via MediaPlayer and you can apply any transformation you want on it.
Here is a simple example of how to use it to play a video (with a dumb scaling animation):
public class TestActivity extends Activity implements SurfaceTextureListener {
private static final String VIDEO_URL = "http://www.808.dk/pics/video/gizmo.mp4";
private MediaPlayer player;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
player = MediaPlayer.create(this, Uri.parse(VIDEO_URL));
setContentView(R.layout.main);
TextureView videoView = (TextureView) findViewById(R.id.video);
videoView.setSurfaceTextureListener(this);
// Scaling
Animation scaling = new ScaleAnimation(0.2f, 1.0f, 0.2f, 1.0f);
scaling.setDuration(2000);
videoView.startAnimation(scaling);
}
#Override
public void onSurfaceTextureAvailable(SurfaceTexture surface, int width, int height) {
player.setSurface(new Surface(surface));
player.start();
}
#Override
public void onSurfaceTextureSizeChanged(SurfaceTexture surface, int width, int height) { }
#Override
public boolean onSurfaceTextureDestroyed(SurfaceTexture surface) { return false; }
#Override
public void onSurfaceTextureUpdated(SurfaceTexture surface) { }
}
With the following main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextureView
android:id="#+id/video"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</FrameLayout>
Note that this TextureView is only available for API level >= 14.
i have a videoview in my application. the code is like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

the video view width and hieght is mentioned in xml file. What i want is , once i press a button the videoview should come on full screen and once i press back button the videoview should go back to its mentioned size. please help?
I had to make my VideoView sit in a RelativeLayout in order to make the chosen answer work.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<VideoView android:id="#+id/videoViewRelative"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
</VideoView>

As given here: Android - How to stretch video to fill VideoView area Toggling between screen sizes would be as simple as changing the layout parameters as given in the chosen answer.
Set full screen this way,
DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics);
android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = (android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams) videoView.getLayoutParams();
params.width = metrics.widthPixels;
params.height = metrics.heightPixels;
params.leftMargin = 0;
videoView.setLayoutParams(params);
And back to original size, this way.
DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics);
android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = (android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams) videoView.getLayoutParams();
params.width = (int)(300*metrics.density);
params.height = (int)(250*metrics.density);
params.leftMargin = 30;
videoView.setLayoutParams(params);
I have done this way:
Check these reference screen shots.
Add class FullScreenVideoView.java:
import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.VideoView;
public class FullScreenVideoView extends VideoView {
public FullScreenVideoView(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public FullScreenVideoView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public FullScreenVideoView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
#Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec){
super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
setMeasuredDimension(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
}
}
How to bind with xml:
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/secondMedia"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<com.my.package.customview.FullScreenVideoView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/fullScreenVideoView"/>
</FrameLayout>
Hope this will help you.
First Method
when you want to open a video in full screen for that Activity you have to set the theme attribute in the Manifest. set this value that is
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"
change theme programmatically here
Second Method
create another fullscreen.xml like below and setContentView(R.layout.fullscreen) on click of the button
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<VideoView android:id="#+id/myvideoview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
</VideoView>
</RelativeLayout>
On Button click start the native video player which will open in full screen:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW );
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(path), "video/*");
startActivity(intent);
The below code worked.
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
Add this code before calling videoView.start(). With this the video activity runs in full screen mode in most of the cases. But if the title bar is still displayed then change your theme in your manifest to this.

you can achieve it by creating two separate activity.
Suppose first activity is halfScreen activity. In this activity your video view having small size. On button click of full screen video start another activity 'fullScreen activity'. In second activity the video view should be match parent to the parent layout.you can also start video in full screen from where it is paused in half screen.In my code i have implemented that.Also you can resume the video in half screen on the back press of fullscreen activity.
This is work for me.Hope it will work for you also.
Here is the code
half.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#aa99cc"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<VideoView
android:id="#+id/VideoViewhalf"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="300dp" >
</VideoView>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/btnfullScreen"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="fullscreen" />
<ProgressBar
android:id="#+id/progressBar"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
HalfScreen activity
public class HalfScreen extends Activity {
Button btn;
VideoView videoView = null;
final int REQUEST_CODE = 5000;
final String videoToPlay = "http://bffmedia.com/bigbunny.mp4";
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.half);
videoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.VideoViewhalf);
final ProgressBar progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar);
btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnfullScreen);
Uri video = Uri.parse(videoToPlay);
videoView.setVideoURI(video);
videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
progressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
videoView.requestFocus();
videoView.start();
}
});
btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent videointent = new Intent(HalfScreen.this,
FullScreen.class);
videointent.putExtra("currenttime",
videoView.getCurrentPosition());
videointent.putExtra("Url", videoToPlay);
startActivityForResult(videointent, REQUEST_CODE);
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK && requestCode == REQUEST_CODE) {
if (data.hasExtra("currenttime")) {
int result = data.getExtras().getInt("currenttime", 0);
if (result > 0) {
if (null != videoView) {
videoView.start();
videoView.seekTo(result);
ProgressBar progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar);
progressBar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
}
}
}
}

FullScreen Activity
public class FullScreen extends Activity {

int currenttime = 0;

private static ProgressDialog progressDialog;
#Override

Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if (null != extras) {
currenttime = extras.getInt("currenttime", 0);

}
setContentView(R.layout.full);
progressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "", "Loading...", true);
videoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.VideoViewfull);
MediaController mediaController = new MediaController(this);
mediaController.setAnchorView(videoView);
Uri video = Uri.parse(Url);
videoView.setMediaController(mediaController);
videoView.setVideoURI(video);
videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() {
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer arg0) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
videoView.start();
videoView.seekTo(currenttime);
}
});
}
#Override
public void finish() {
Intent data = new Intent();
data.putExtra("currenttime", videoView.getCurrentPosition());
setResult(RESULT_OK, data);
super.finish();
}
}
I achieved it by switching to landscape orientation and setting layout params to MATCH_PARENT. Just before switching to fullscreen mode, we need to store current orientation mode and VideoView params indefaultScreenOrientationMode and defaultVideoViewParams variables correspondingly. So that we can use them when we exit from video fullscreen mode. Thus, when you want to open video in fullscreen mode, use makeVideoFullScreen() method, to exit - exitVideoFullScreen().
Please, note I used RelativeLayout for my VideoView, in your case it can be another layout type.
private RelativeLayout.LayoutParams defaultVideoViewParams;
private int defaultScreenOrientationMode;
// play video in fullscreen mode
private void makeVideoFullScreen() {
defaultScreenOrientationMode = getResources().getConfiguration().orientation;
defaultVideoViewParams = (LayoutParams) videoView.getLayoutParams();
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
videoView.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = (RelativeLayout.LayoutParams) new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
videoView.setLayoutParams(params);
videoView.layout(10, 10, 10, 10);
}
}, 700);
}
// close fullscreen mode
private void exitVideoFullScreen() {
setRequestedOrientation(defaultScreenOrientationMode);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_UNSPECIFIED);
videoView.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
videoView.setLayoutParams(defaultVideoViewParams);
videoView.layout(10, 10, 10, 10);
}
}, 700);
}
whether you want to keep the aspect ratio of a video or stretch it to fill its parent area, using the right layout manager can get the job done.
Keep the aspect ratio :
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<VideoView
android:id="#+id/videoView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"/>
</LinearLayout>
!!! To fill in the field:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<VideoView android:id="#+id/videoViewRelative"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
</VideoView>
</RelativeLayout>
DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics);
android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = (android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams) mVideoView.getLayoutParams();
params.width = (int) metrics.widthPixels;
params.height = (int) metrics.heightPixels;
mVideoView.setLayoutParams(params);
playVideo();
aspectRatio = VideoInfo.AR_4_3_FIT_PARENT;
mVideoView.getPlayer().aspectRatio(aspectRatio);
Try code below here.
if (!isFullScreen())
{
Log.v("Full screen", "-----------is full screen------------");
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
DisplayMetrics displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics);
int height = displaymetrics.heightPixels;
int width = displaymetrics.widthPixels;
android.widget.FrameLayout.LayoutParams params = (android.widget.FrameLayout.LayoutParams) videoSurface.getLayoutParams();
params.width = width;
params.height=height;
params.setMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
}
else{
Log.v("Full screen", "-----------small screen------------");
DisplayMetrics displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics);
int height = displaymetrics.heightPixels;
int width = displaymetrics.widthPixels;
android.widget.FrameLayout.LayoutParams params = (android.widget.FrameLayout.LayoutParams) videoSurface.getLayoutParams();
params.width = width;
params.height=height / 3;
params.setMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
}
This code is for full screen landscape video
AndroidManifext.xml (Setting the orientation)
<activity
android:name=".Video1"
android:screenOrientation="landscape" />

#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_video1);
videoView = findViewById(R.id.videoView);
String fullScreen = getIntent().getStringExtra("fullScreenInd");
if("y".equals(fullScreen)){
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
getSupportActionBar().hide();
}
Uri videoUri = Uri.parse("android.resource://"+getPackageName()+"/"+R.raw.YOUR_VIDEO_NAME);
videoView.setVideoURI(videoUri);
mediaController = new FullScreenMediaController(this);
mediaController.setAnchorView(videoView);
videoView.setMediaController(mediaController);
videoView.start();
}
}

if("y".equals(isFullScreen)){
fullScreen.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_fullscreen_exit);
