    <p>I am trying to play a video in my Android application. But it only plays the audio of video and don't show anything on screen!</p> <p>Here is my java activity file:</p> <pre><code>public class MainActivity extends Activity { @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); try { videoPlayer(); } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (SecurityException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IllegalStateException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IOException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } } @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present. getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu); return true; } public void videoPlayer() throws IllegalArgumentException, SecurityException, IllegalStateException, IOException{ Uri myUri = Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard/sub_sda1/a.mpg")); MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(); SurfaceView mSurfaceView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.surface); mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC); mediaPlayer.setDataSource(getApplicationContext(), myUri); mediaPlayer.prepare(); int videoWidth = mediaPlayer.getVideoWidth(); int videoHeight = mediaPlayer.getVideoHeight(); //Get the width of the screen int screenWidth = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getWidth(); //Get the SurfaceView layout parameters android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams lp = mSurfaceView.getLayoutParams(); //Set the width of the SurfaceView to the width of the screen lp.width = screenWidth; //Set the height of the SurfaceView to match the aspect ratio of the video //be sure to cast these as floats otherwise the calculation will likely be 0 lp.height = (int) (((float)videoHeight / (float)videoWidth) * (float)screenWidth); //Commit the layout parameters mSurfaceView.setLayoutParams(lp); mediaPlayer.start(); } } </code></pre> <p>and there is my xml activity layout:</p> <pre><code>&lt;RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin" android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin" android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin" android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin" tools:context=".MainActivity" &gt; &lt;TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/hamed" /&gt; &lt;SurfaceView android:id="@+id/surface" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:paddingTop="10dip" /&gt; &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>I also viewed these questions but I didn't get my answer: </p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7509818/android-mediaplayer-sometimes-no-video-is-played-even-though-audio-plays">Android MediaPlayer - Sometimes No Video is Played Even Though Audio Plays</a></p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9014720/android-mediaplayer-does-not-display-video-only-play-audio">Android MediaPlayer does not display video, only play audio</a></p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9302611/mediaplayer-only-playing-audio-not-audiovideo">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9302611/mediaplayer-only-playing-audio-not-audiovideo</a></p> <p>I guess that I should set something in xml activity layout but I didn't it. Would you please let me know your suggestions?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
