Mediacontroller Doesn't Work

My layout that contains videoView

Solution 1:

Try this :

publicstaticvoidplayVideo(String urlPath) {

VideoView mVideoview; // Added this line
mVideoView =(VideoView) findViewByid(R.yourvideoviewid);

try {
// Start the MediaControllerMediaController mediacontroller = newMediaController(mContext);
mediacontroller.setAnchorView(mVideoview);
// Get the URL from String VideoURLUri mVideo = Uri.parse(urlPath);
mVideoview.setMediaController(mediacontroller);
mVideoview.setVideoURI(mVideo);

} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();

}

mVideoview.requestFocus();
mVideoview.setOnPreparedListener(newOnPreparedListener() {
// Close the progress bar and play the videopublicvoidonPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
mVideoview.start();

}
});

mVideoview.setOnCompletionListener(newOnCompletionListener() {

publicvoidonCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {

}
});
}

Solution 2:

<VideoView
 android:id="@+id/videoView"
 android:layout_width="match_parent"
 android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

Java

// Get VideoView in layout xmlVideoViewmVideoView= (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.videoView);

// MediaController provide controller, contains the buttons// like "Play/Pause", "Rewind", "Fast Forward" and a progress slideMediaControllermediaController=newMediaController(this);

mediaController.setAnchorView(mVideoView);
mVideoView.setMediaController(mediaController);

mVideoView.setVideoPath("/path/to/your/videofile");
mVideoView.requestFocus();
mVideoView.setOnPreparedListener(newOnPreparedListener() {
 publicvoidonPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
  mVideoView.start();
 }
});

Solution 3:

Add frame layout for anchor view in your xml

<FrameLayout android:id="@+id/controllerAnchor"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        />

and set this to your media controller

mediacontroller.setAnchorView(findViewById(R.id.controllerAnchor);
