Android Question Exoplayer Background Color

[Dieter Baumgartner]

Does anyone know, why the background color in Exoplayer or Simpleexoplayer is not changeable any longer. It run for quite a time like Erel wrote in the past post
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...ckground-color-from-player.77285/#post-575004
but know it stays always black, no matter what color you put in the manifest file.

'Für Exoplayer Hintergrundfarbe
CreateResource(values, colors.xml,
<resources>
    <color name="exoplayer_background">#f3a6c0</color>
</resources>
)
CreateResource(layout,  exo_simple_player_view.xml,

Try this:

SimpleExoPlayerView1.As(JavaObject).RunMethod("setShutterBackgroundColor", Array(0xfff3a6c0))
SimpleExoPlayerView1.Color = 0xfff3a6c0

Sorry, but it doesn*t change anything. Playerview always stays black colored. Use Exoplayer 1.52 and the newest additional libraries.

It worked in former versions, but now i am unable to change the colors. I deleted the entries in the manifest file.
Any other ideas how to change the color of simpleexoplayerview ?

 

[Erel]

Try this project (it includes some other non-related code).

This is a good example, it changes the color of the background, but i wante

d to change the color of the control panel that is still black and cannot find a way to touch this again

 

[Erel]

Dim r As Reflector
r.Target = SimpleExoPlayerView1
Dim controller As B4XView = r.GetField("controller")
controller.GetView(0).Color = xui.Color_Green
