Video problem?

[Amine]

Hi,

I use the code below to play a video from URL. It work on the simulator but does not work on android device (xperia z3+)?

The code :

protected void postTestForm(Form f) {

try {
            Media media;
            media = MediaManager.createMedia("http://178.128.204.162:3000/images/Lcode.maSpotMoutadaribine.mp4", true);
            
            if (media.isNativePlayerMode()) {
                media.setNativePlayerMode(true);
            }
            findCntVideoF().addComponent(media.getVideoComponent());
            media.play();
            Timer t = new Timer();
            TimerTask ta = new TimerTask() {

                public void run() {
                    media.pause();
                }
            };

            t.schedule(ta, 6000);
            
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            Dialog.show("Video Error", ex.getMessage(), "Ok", "Cancel");
        }

}

Kind regards,

Hi,
the IP must be accessible to the device. Android and iOS block HTTP URLs by default (only https is allowed) so try this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57121953/usescleartexttraffic-not-permitted/57130188

Hi,

The IP is accessible, and i add int build hint this parameter (see the attached image) but it's still not working.

Give the findCntVideoF container a BorderLayout and add the media to the center. I'm guessing the video is shrinking to an invisible size because it didn't have time to initialize.
