Hi all, I've got a problem with VideoView that I would love some input on.
The setup is basically an activity that starts by launching the gallery with the intent of opening a video. Once that returns, the activity displays a contentview consisting of some views. Acting upon one of the views will set the currently visible controls to "gone" and make a VideoView "visible", which plays the video, and once that is done it returns to the previous state by setting the VideoView to "gone" and vice versa. This all works fine, and I can switch between the "control" mode and "play" mode ad infinitum, however going back one more step, thus switching activities to the gallery and selecting a new (or the same) video file and then repeating the steps mentioned above results in the video playing back only sound, without picture (the VideoView area of the screen remains black). The instances of both the container and VideoView are the same before and after the activity switch, I have tried playing around with Z order, bringing the video view to front, unfreezing the underlying surface and a lot of other things I can't remember off the top of my head, but without success... Any ideas? Best Regards Anders -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
