Android Question SimpleExoPlayer mirroring?

[techknight]

I want to be able to take the same player/video file and mirror it on two views. Here is my code:

'Play a video on-screen
Sub PlayVideo(Args() As Object)
    Dim Side As Int = Args(0)
    Dim Video As Int = Args(1)
    Dim Looping As Boolean = Args(2)
    
    player1.Initialize("player")
    Select Case Video
        Case 0        'Play american flag animation
            If Looping = True Then
                player1.Prepare(player1.CreateLoopSource(player1.CreateFileSource(File.DirAssets, "flag.mp4"), -1))
            Else
                player1.Prepare(player1.CreateFileSource(File.DirAssets, "flag.mp4"))
            End If
        Case 1        'Play boot logo animation    
            
    End Select
    
    If Side = 1 Then    'Guest
        PlayerViewGuest.Player = player1
        PlayerViewGuest.ResizeMode = "FILL"
        PlayerViewGuest.Visible = True
    Else if Side = 2 Then     'Home
        PlayerViewHome.Player = player1
        PlayerViewHome.ResizeMode = "FILL"
        PlayerViewHome.Visible = True
    Else    'Both
        PlayerViewGuest.Player = player1
        PlayerViewHome.Player = player1
        PlayerViewHome.ResizeMode = "FILL"
        PlayerViewGuest.ResizeMode = "FILL"
        PlayerViewGuest.Visible = True
        PlayerViewHome.Visible = True
    End If        
    
    player1.Play
End Sub

However, its only appearing in one view and not both.

How can i fix this? thanks.

You will probably need to use two different players.

Yeah thats what I was thinking. I ended up going this route, the trouble is they aren't in sync when I start them both. That is the key thing.
