Get Real Path For Uri Android

Question

I am developing a VideoPlayer. I convert the URI of a launched intent to a string and it gives me content://media/external...... But I need to get the real path.

For example: /storage/extSdcard.....

How do I do this?

Here is my code if needed:

videoURI = getIntent().getData(); vv.setVideoURI(videoURI);  videoName = videoURI.toString();  tvTitle.setText(videoName);

Use this code .This is working for all android version.This is tested code.This support all devices

public static String getPathFromUri(final Context context, final Uri uri) {          final boolean isKitKat = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT;          // DocumentProvider         if (isKitKat && DocumentsContract.isDocumentUri(context, uri)) {             // ExternalStorageProvider             if (isExternalStorageDocument(uri)) {                 final String docId = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri);                 final String[] split = docId.split(":");                 final String type = split[0];                  if ("primary".equalsIgnoreCase(type)) {                     return Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/" + split[1];                 }                  // TODO handle non-primary volumes             }             // DownloadsProvider             else if (isDownloadsDocument(uri)) {                  final String id = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri);                 final Uri contentUri = ContentUris.withAppendedId(                         Uri.parse("content://downloads/public_downloads"), Long.valueOf(id));                  return getDataColumn(context, contentUri, null, null);             }             // MediaProvider             else if (isMediaDocument(uri)) {                 final String docId = DocumentsContract.getDocumentId(uri);                 final String[] split = docId.split(":");                 final String type = split[0];                  Uri contentUri = null;                 if ("image".equals(type)) {                     contentUri = MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;                 } else if ("video".equals(type)) {                     contentUri = MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;                 } else if ("audio".equals(type)) {                     contentUri = MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;                 }                  final String selection = "_id=?";                 final String[] selectionArgs = new String[] {                         split[1]                 };                  return getDataColumn(context, contentUri, selection, selectionArgs);             }         }         // MediaStore (and general)         else if ("content".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {              // Return the remote address             if (isGooglePhotosUri(uri))                 return uri.getLastPathSegment();              return getDataColumn(context, uri, null, null);         }         // File         else if ("file".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {             return uri.getPath();         }          return null;     }      public static String getDataColumn(Context context, Uri uri, String selection,                                        String[] selectionArgs) {          Cursor cursor = null;         final String column = "_data";         final String[] projection = {                 column         };          try {             cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, projection, selection, selectionArgs,                     null);             if (cursor != null && cursor.moveToFirst()) {                 final int index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(column);                 return cursor.getString(index);             }         } finally {             if (cursor != null)                 cursor.close();         }         return null;     }       /**      * @param uri The Uri to check.      * @return Whether the Uri authority is ExternalStorageProvider.      */     public static boolean isExternalStorageDocument(Uri uri) {         return "com.android.externalstorage.documents".equals(uri.getAuthority());     }      /**      * @param uri The Uri to check.      * @return Whether the Uri authority is DownloadsProvider.      */     public static boolean isDownloadsDocument(Uri uri) {         return "com.android.providers.downloads.documents".equals(uri.getAuthority());     }      /**      * @param uri The Uri to check.      * @return Whether the Uri authority is MediaProvider.      */     public static boolean isMediaDocument(Uri uri) {         return "com.android.providers.media.documents".equals(uri.getAuthority());     }      /**      * @param uri The Uri to check.      * @return Whether the Uri authority is Google Photos.      */     public static boolean isGooglePhotosUri(Uri uri) {         return "com.google.android.apps.photos.content".equals(uri.getAuthority()); }
