Draw primitives and Video

Hi everyone,

I have some problems to draw primitives on a SurfaceView's canvas and to display a video on another SurfaceView in the same time.

When I start the video, this one works but primitives which are previously displayed are no more displayed. Because SurfaceHolder.lockCanvas() return null.

I used a RelativeLayout and two SurfaceViews.

Somebody have any idea?

Thanks.

When I speak about primitives, I want to say shapes, line, text on a canvas.

I begin to think that anybody have created a video player without the android UI.

Perhaps it is not possible. Anybody have done a video overlay?

Thanks for your help.

Hi, again

Anybody have drawn a video over a canvas.

I retrieved the canvas from a SurfaceView and I used a VideoView to display my video.
I create the VideoView only when I launch the video.

My issue is that the video stay under the SurfaceView.
If I shift the SurfaceView with margin, I can see a part of my video.
If I set a background to my VideoView, I can see the VideoView over the SurfaceView (without the video, only the color of the background).
The sound of the video is always audible.

Anybody have an idea.

Thanks.

Try out this..

xml:
<SurfaceView android:id="@+id/surface"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="250px"
android:layout_gravity="center">
</SurfaceView>

java:

public class VideoActivity extends Activity implements SurfaceHolder.Callback {

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
...
...
getWindow().setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSPARENT);
SurfaceView videoView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.surface);
SurfaceHolder videoHolder = videoView.getHolder();
videoHolder.addCallback(this);
videoHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_PUSH_BUFFERS);
videoHolder.setFixedSize(display.getWidth(), 300);

playmedia("The media path");

}

private void playmedia(String songpath) {
mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(2);
mediaPlayer.setDataSource(songpath);
mediaPlayer.setDisplay(videoHolder);

mediaPlayer.prepare();
mediaPlayer.start();
}

}

I apologise for my late response.

But thanks hebbalhrk, that's work.

Now, I have an other problem.

I initialize the videoView visibility to "invisible":

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]

Using xml Syntax Highlighting

<VideoView android:id="@+id/videoView" 
                  android:layout_width="176px"
                  android:layout_height="144px"
                  android:visibility="invisible">
</VideoView>
Parsed in 0.001 seconds,  using GeSHi 1.0.8.4

Next, when I call prepareAsync(), my application crash and I have the debug log below:

Any idea.
