B4J Library MediaView - video player

This library includes two custom views: MediaView and MediaViewController.
MediaView can play local and remote videos and music.
The native JavaFX MediaView doesn't include a controller interface. I've implemented one. You can use it or create your own. Tip: the controller code and layout are inside the b4xlib file.

Usage:
Add the two custom views and connect them:

MediaViewController1.SetMediaView(MediaView1)

Set the video source.

MediaView1.Source = "https://player.vimeo....

Use File.GetUri to play a local file.

Tip: the simplest way to create a MediaView is with SimpleMediaManager: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/134716/#content

I tried it with avi files converted in mp4 by VLC
The MediaViewExample program starts but remains blocked on the first image of the video (note that the same file is red by VLC without problem)
Log error :

Error: MediaException: UNKNOWN : [[email protected]27beb] ERROR_MEDIA_INVALID: ERROR_MEDIA_INVALID

Please could you tell me what are the detailed formats supported by MediaView ?
And if you know an utility for converting avi.files to this standard ?

Thanks EREL

Thanks @Erel.

I have a question: is it possible to change the audio device with MediaView? That is, if I have several sound cards, choose which one the sound should be output on?

 

[Erel]

Nope.

BTW, the simplest way to use MediaView is with SMM: [B4X] SimpleMediaManager (SMM) - framework for images, videos and more
