catch Video View error

[madru]

Good day,

is it possible to overwrite the VideoView error message "Cannot play video | Sorry, this video cannot be played" in B4A ….like in Java?

This message cannot be change (also in Java).
It is possible in Java to provide an alternative error handler and it will handle the errors instead.

You will need to create a small and simple library for that.

OK, or can we attach a setOnErrorListener event ?

    this.videoView.setOnErrorListener(new MediaPlayer.OnErrorListener()
    {
      public boolean onError(MediaPlayer paramMediaPlayer, int paramInt1, int paramInt2)
      {
        Log.d("hasta", "Media PLayer Error");
        if (paramInt2 == -61)
          Player.this.finish();
        while (true)
        {
          return true;
          Toast.makeText(Player.this, "Sorry, this video cannot be played", 0).show();
        }
      }
    });

You will need to implement the listener in a library.

Hi,
old question I know, but did anyone ever find/ implement a way around this error message problem?

Yes I made a small OnErrorListener library:
