I am basically trying to move the VideoView
I have by using an animator on the layout that contains in. However, the video view never moves. Its layout moves, but not the video itself?
How can I make the video move?
here is what i have so far.
the slideleft.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromXDelta="0%" android:toXDelta="-50%" android:duration="200"
android:fillAfter ="true" android:fillEnabled="true"
android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_decelerate_interpolator" />
</set>
the animation portion in activiy (reinitialized animators everytime just to make sure)
public void videoSlideOut(long time){
rn2 = new Runnable(){
public void run() {
Animation SlideLeft = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(Video.this, R.anim.slideleft);
Animation SlideLeft2 = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(Video.this, R.anim.slideleft);
((RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.video_view_slider)).startAnimation(SlideLeft);
video.startAnimation(SlideLeft2);
}
};
hnd.postDelayed(rn2, time);
}
I don't think you can animate VideoView like this. Basicly animation takes drawing cache/layer of the window and then animates it. But VideoView uses SurfaceView for rendering video. And, as far as I know, SurfaceView can't be animated with Animation class.
You can try Animator but I'm not sure if it'll work...
