this following source code snippet is given:
videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
@Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) {
mediaPlayer.setOnInfoListener(new MediaPlayer.OnInfoListener() {
@Override
public boolean onInfo(MediaPlayer mp, int what, int extra) {
if (what == MediaPlayer.MEDIA_INFO_BUFFERING_END){
activity.dismissDialog(DialogID.DIALOG_LOADING);
return true;
}
return false;
}
});
}
});
I am streaming HLS streams with Android 3.x+ devices and trying to hide a loading dialog once the buffering is completed. The video streaming works, but the info events are never fired.
Any ideas?
I know its too late, But posting it for the users still seeking for the solution (This worked for me):
progressDialog.show();
videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
@Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) {
mediaPlayer.setOnInfoListener(new MediaPlayer.OnInfoListener() {
@Override
public boolean onInfo(MediaPlayer mp, int what, int extra) {
if (what == MediaPlayer.MEDIA_INFO_BUFFERING_END){
progressDialog.dismiss();
return true;
} else if(what == MediaPlayer.MEDIA_INFO_BUFFERING_START){
progressDialog.show();
}
return false;
}
});
progressDialog.dismiss();
videoView.start();
}
});
You're right, the events are never fired. This is a known HLS bug that I don't think Google will fix.
This applies to the onInfo and the buffering events.
