Video not playing on android webview
- by rand
I am working with an Android and PhoneGap application and am using the HTML5 video tag to play videos on my web page. When I play the video is not visible and video is not playing itself. How can I play a HTML5 video on Android?
Code for the same given below
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="cordova-1.8.1.js"></script>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=">
<title></title>
</head>
<body >
<video id="video" autobuffer height="240" width="360" onclick="this.play();>
<source src="test.mp4">
<source src="test.mp4" type="video/webm">
<source src="test.mp4" type="video/ogg">
</video>
<div id="msg"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
</script>
</body>
</html>
and the activity class onCreate method--
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
final WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
WebSettings webSettings = webView.getSettings();
webSettings.setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.NARROW_COLUMNS);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webSettings.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
webSettings.setPluginState(PluginState.ON);
webView.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
webSettings.setAllowFileAccess(true);
webView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/www/html5videoEvents.html");
}
