Hi I am using the MediaPlayer API (1.5 version) in android. I have successfully gotten the Motorola Droid on Verizon to work well with the video both in terms of positioning and getting the picture to appear at all. However, the same code, using the same application with the same video source, does not display the video on EVO 4G on Sprint.
The video documentation is very limited, and I struggled for 2 weeks to get the Droid to work. What I noticed was that after the surface is allocated, and after MediaPlayer.prepareAsync() and its corresponding listener onPrepare indicates that it is ready, I check the value of MediaPlayer.getVideoHeight and MediaPlayer.getVideoWidth, and on the EVO they are 0,0, whereas on the Droid it is the size of the video, that is non-zero. So I hardcoded some values instead of the 0,0, and I got at least a black background on my display where the video should be, but no video yet. Are there documented difference between android devices that I need to be aware of in terms of handling video? I was hoping that by figuring out one device would allow me to use the same code across all devices. Any suggestions on this problem will be appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
