Hello

maybe someone has got an idea how to solve this problem:

I have an Activity which is playing a Video.
I pause the Video.
Now I start a new Activity which contains a Textview.
Now I close that Activity with the TextView.

If I now press play(in order to start the video) i can hear the sound of the Video but the Videoimages are not appearing on the Screen.
Does anyone know why (after starting and the closing an Activity) I can hear the sound of the playing video but can´t see the videoimages?

Thanks in advance

You probably do something wrong with the lifecycle of you video activity. Are you sure you remake the surface for the video to play?

No I didnt remake the surface. Maybe you could tell me where and how I should remake it?

Thanks

Check out the LunarLander example, I think it also creates a SurfaceView and destroys it and recreates it.

Or you should use VideoView. If you already are, then I really can't help you .

I dont use the VideoView and I cant find anything interesting in the LunarLander example.

Any other advice from someone?

Thnks

Then why don't you use VideoView?
