I'm writing an app that needs a video player. It would be nice to have the audio of the player still available when the user navigates away from the application, and have the visual resume when they navigate back to it.
For an audio player this could easily be done by creating a service that houses the media player with an interface setup for controlling things like start, pause, seek, etc. It doesn't seem to be so easy for a video player though, because the video player needs access to a SurfaceView, and we can't simply pass a pointer to an instance of SurfaceView through messages and service interfaces (right?). Any thoughts on how this can be done? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
