Raw folder url path?

Question

How can I get the URL of the raw folder? I do not want to access my asset via id but by path instead.

Answer 1

Uri video = Uri.parse("android.resource://com.cpt.sample/raw/filename"); 

Using this you can access the file in raw folder, if you want to access the file in asset folder use this URL...

file:///android_asset/filename 

Make sure you don't add the extension to the filename. E.g. "/movie" not "/movie.mp4".

Answer 2

This is to find a file named video.mp4 inside raw folder:

    String path = "android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.video;
