CONNECT Player SDK 5 for Android

Adding a video view element

Use this to add an OTVVideoView element to the layout:

  1. Expand app > src > main > res > layout and open the activity_main.xml file.

  2. Select Code view and create a nagra.otv.sdk.OTVVideoView by replacing the contents with:

    XML
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
          xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="match_parent"
          tools:context=".MainActivity">
     
          <nagra.otv.sdk.OTVVideoView
              android:id="@+id/otvVideoView"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              android:layout_centerInParent="true"
              android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants" />
     
    </android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
    

The OTVVideoView element works as the principal UI element when part of a layout. Placing any other elements on top of the video view’s area will produce unpredictable effects and interfere with the built-in security measures.

Next step: You should now be able to run the app in clear playback mode.
