Video is not showing on VideoView but I can hear its sound

android, android-videoview, video

Solution

I've tried every method above, but none of them could work.

Finally, I tried to call this function, then the video appeared.

video_view.setZOrderOnTop(true);

Hope this also works for you.

Problem

On my button click I wrote the following code for playing video from my SDCARD (mp4). ``` video_view = (VideoView)findViewById(R.id.video_view); video_view.setVideoPath("/sdcard/myvideo.mp4"); video_view.setMediaController(new MediaController(this)); video_view.start(); ``` I can play recorded video from SDCARD in player. - But when I run it on my application in videoview I can hear only sound. - Problem : I am not able to see the video. ---- I tried following SO link but still no luck ---- - link 1 link 2 Is anybody ever faced this kind of problem ? If yes then how can it solve it ?
