videoRecyclerview.scrollToPosition(position);

Answer 1

If you are using a RecyclerView and LinearLayoutManager this will work:

private void scrollToCenter(View v) {
    int itemToScroll = mRecyclerView.getChildPosition(v);
    int centerOfScreen = mRecyclerView.getWidth() / 2 - v.getWidth() / 2;
    mLayoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(itemToScroll, centerOfScreen);
}

Answer 2

if you use linearlayoutManager, you can use this code,

linearLayoutManager.scrollToPositionWithOffset(2, 20);

(linearLayoutManager.void scrollToPositionWithOffset (int position, 
            int offset))

Setting the offset to 0 should align with the top
