Navigation Drawer and VideoView in android

Question

I am using a navigation drawer plus a tablayout. I have a video in my tab which was not visible at first, but I can hear the sound. Once I set

video_view.setZOrderOnTop(true);

and I can also see the video, but this causes an issue with navigation drawer.

When I slide it, the video doesn't hide behind the navigation drawer as do all other elements.

If I don't use

video_view.setZOrderOnTop(true);

then my drawer is works fine.

main_activity.xml

TabFragment.java

@Override

                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // Inflate the layout for this fragment
    final View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.tab_fragment, container, false);
    VideoView video_player_view = (VideoView) view.findViewById(R.id.video_player_view);
    video_player_view.setVideoURI("videourl");
    video_player_view.setZOrderOnTop(true);
    video_player_view.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
             @Override
             public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
                 video_player_view.start();
             }
         });        
    return  view;
}

So can Anyone guide me with an alternative for that.

@Atula I suggest you a simple solution for this....This is work Perfect

I attach the screenshot working properly....

Try this

Used this

  video_player_view.setZOrderMediaOverlay(true);

Instead Of

  video_view.setZOrderOnTop(true);
