The previous introduction of the use of Videoview play video, using Videoview play video simple and convenient, but the habit of using MediaPlayer developers or use MediaPlayer; MediaPlayer itself is mainly used to play audio, not provide video output screen, need to rely on Surfaceview,videoview is its sub-class;

To play a video step:
"1" Layout file join Surfaceview

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

"3" Create MediaPlayer object, load video file

player.setDataSource(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory"/20150915_160202.mp4");

"4" Get surfaceholder Add listener

  SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder=mSurfaceView.getHolder();                    surfaceHolder.setKeepScreenOn(true);

"5" Calls MediaPlayer's Setdisplay (Surfaceholder sh)

 player.setDisplay(surfaceHolder);//设置视频播放位置

"6" Start (), Stop (), pause ()

The following is the program source code

 Public  class mainactivity extends Activity {    PrivateSurfaceview Msurfaceview;PrivateButton Mbutton;PrivateMediaPlayer player;@Override    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedinstancestate) {Super. OnCreate (Savedinstancestate);        Setcontentview (R.layout.activity_main);        Msurfaceview = (Surfaceview) Findviewbyid (R.id.surfaceview);        Mbutton = (Button) Findviewbyid (R.id.button); Mbutton.setonclicklistener (NewView.onclicklistener () {@Override             Public void OnClick(View v) {if(Player = =NULL) {player =NewMediaPlayer (); } player.reset ();Try{Player.setdatasource (environment.getexternalstoragedirectory () +"/20150915_160202.mp4"); Player.setaudiostreamtype (Audiomanager.stream_music);//Set playback sound typeSurfaceholder Surfaceholder=msurfaceview.getholder (); Surfaceholder.setkeepscreenon (true); Player.setdisplay (Surfaceholder);//Set video playback locationPlayer.prepare ();//PreparationPlayer.setonpreparedlistener (NewMediaplayer.onpreparedlistener () {@Override                         Public void onprepared(MediaPlayer MP) {Mp.start ();//Start playback}                    }); }Catch(IOException e)                {E.printstacktrace ();    }            }        }); }}
