Introducing Videoplayer-with-Vimeo-support, an innovative and versatile Android video player library designed to seamlessly integrate Vimeo and standard video playback functionalities into your Android applications. This open-source library empowers developers with a robust set of features, providing a smooth and engaging video experience for users.
For a working implementation of this project see the sample app.
step 1:Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
Step 2. Add the dependency
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.Prashant-Chandel:Videoplayer-with-Vimeo-support:138257e15c'
}
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>jitpack.io</id>
<url>https://jitpack.io</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
Step 2. Add the dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.Prashant-Chandel</groupId>
<artifactId>Videoplayer-with-Vimeo-support</artifactId>
<version>138257e15c</version>
</dependency>
Include the UniversalVideoView and UniversalMediaController widget in your layout. This should usually be placed in the same parent ViewGroup, which makes sense when in full screen state.
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/video_layout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="200dp"
android:background="@android:color/black">
<com.universalvideoview.UniversalVideoView
android:id="@+id/videoView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
app:uvv_autoRotation="true"
app:uvv_fitXY="false" />
<com.universalvideoview.UniversalMediaController
android:id="@+id/media_controller"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
app:uvv_scalable="true" />
</FrameLayout>
In your onCreate method, set the UniversalMediaController to the UniversalVideoView and implements the
UniversalVideoView.VideoViewCallback Callback.
View mBottomLayout;
View mVideoLayout;
UniversalVideoView mVideoView;
UniversalMediaController mMediaController;
mVideoView = (UniversalVideoView) findViewById(R.id.videoView);
mMediaController = (UniversalMediaController) findViewById(R.id.media_controller);
mVideoView.setMediaController(mMediaController);
mVideoView.setVideoViewCallback(new UniversalVideoView.VideoViewCallback() {
@Override
public void onScaleChange(boolean isFullscreen) {
this.isFullscreen = isFullscreen;
if (isFullscreen) {
ViewGroup.LayoutParams layoutParams = mVideoLayout.getLayoutParams();
layoutParams.width = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT;
layoutParams.height = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT;
mVideoLayout.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
//GONE the unconcerned views to leave room for video and controller
mBottomLayout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
} else {
ViewGroup.LayoutParams layoutParams = mVideoLayout.getLayoutParams();
layoutParams.width = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT;
layoutParams.height = this.cachedHeight;
mVideoLayout.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
mBottomLayout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
@Override
public void onPause(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) { // Video pause
Log.d(TAG, "onPause UniversalVideoView callback");
}
@Override
public void onStart(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) { // Video start/resume to play
Log.d(TAG, "onStart UniversalVideoView callback");
}
@Override
public void onBufferingStart(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) {// steam start loading
Log.d(TAG, "onBufferingStart UniversalVideoView callback");
}
@Override
public void onBufferingEnd(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) {// steam end loading
Log.d(TAG, "onBufferingEnd UniversalVideoView callback");
}
});
Work with vimeo Executor:-To get an vimeo playable link from vimeo client Video information can be extracted from an identifier:
VimeoExtractor.getInstance().fetchVideoWithIdentifier("1234", null, new OnVimeoExtractionListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(VimeoVideo video) {
String hdStream = video.getStreams().get("1080p");
//...
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Throwable throwable) {
//Error handling here
}
});}
Or alternatively from a full video url:
VimeoExtractor.getInstance().fetchVideoWithURL("https://vimeo.com/1234", null, new OnVimeoExtractionListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(VimeoVideo video) {
String hdStream = video.getStreams().get("1080p");
//...
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Throwable throwable) {
//Error handling here
}
});
VimeoExtractor.getInstance().fetchVideoWithURL(Constants.VIDEO_Vimeo_URL, null, new OnVimeoExtractionListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(final VimeoVideo video) {
String hdStream = video.getStreams().get("1080p");
if (hdStream != null) {
getActivity().runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
// Start the MediaController
mVideoView.setMediaController(mMediaController);
// Get the URL from String VideoURL
Uri video = Uri.parse(hdStreamuRL);
mVideoView.setVideoURI(video);
}
});
}
}
Please build and read the documentation for a better oversight of the information available from each video.
When requesting information on private videos - pass the referrer parameter as null, this will ensure the default header is sent and should avoid any HTTP 403 Forbidden errors.
Support Android Kitkat v4.4(API Level 19 and above).
UniversalVideoView does not retain its full state when going into the background. You should save or restore the state and take care of the Activity Lifecycle. You may need to set the android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize" for your Activity in AndroidManifest.xml to prevent the system from recreate the Activity while phone rotation.
Customization UniversalVideoView attribute uvv_fitXY, Video scale to fill the VideoView's dimension or keep Aspect Ratio (default) likes Android framework VideoView. uvv_autoRotation, auto switch to landscape(fullscreen) or portrait mode according to the orientation sensor. UniversalMediaController attribute uvv_scalable, show or hide the scale button by coding or in xml. if you will not play the video in fullscreen.
