    <p>I'm trying to play a video on Android and having some weird issues, I've stripped my code right back to the following to try and separate it from any view issues elsewhere in my app... the file does seems to be loading, the following comments are the console log which shows it has the video file size and playable duration. However, the playback controls show 0 length, and just a black screen. The video is an mp4, it plays fine, I can only assume the emulator/devices I've tried this on support the format and it's not corrupt, as they are able to read it's duration... what else could stop it playing?!</p> <pre><code>var file = Ti.Filesystem.getFile('file:///data/data/com.app.applite/app_appdata/master/D9E3BC7A_225C_458B_B298_C4.mp4'); console.log('Size: '+file.size); // Size: 269245 var activeMovie = Titanium.Media.createVideoPlayer({ url : file.nativePath, backgroundColor : 'blue', movieControlMode : Titanium.Media.VIDEO_CONTROL_FULLSCREEN, scalingMode : Titanium.Media.VIDEO_SCALING_ASPECT_FIT, fullscreen : true, autoplay : true }); activeMovie.addEventListener('loadstate', function(evt) { console.log( JSON.stringify(evt)); // "playableDuration":8315 Correct duration!!! // {"type":"loadstate","source":{"autoplay":true,"currentPlaybackTime":0,"bubbleParent":true,"playableDuration":8315,"rect":{"height":854,"y":0,"x":0,"width":480},"keepSc reenOn":false,"url":"file:///data/data/com.app.applite/app_appdata/master/D9E3BC7A_225C_458B_B298_C4.mp4","size":{"height":854,"y":0,"width":480,"x":0},"volume":1," endPlaybackTime":8315,"backgroundColor":"blue","playing":true,"playbackState":1,"mediaControlStyle":2,"duration":8315,"movieControlMode":2,"scalingMode":2,"initialPlaybac kTime":0,"loadState":1,"backgroundRepeat":false,"movieControlStyle":2,"children":[],"fullscreen":true,"_events":{"loadstate":{}}},"currentPlaybackTime":0,"loadState":0,"b ubbles":true,"cancelBubble":false} activeMovie.play(); }); // Tried with and without these, makes no difference activeMovie.show(); activeMovie.play(); </code></pre>

    1. COCan you test if it works when you place your video within the resources folder? Let's say url: '/video/D9E3BC7A_225C_458B_B298_C4.mp4'. Better, can you test if it works saving [the example video from the kitchensink](https://github.com/appcelerator/KitchenSink/blob/master/Resources/etc/movie.mp4) to the same path?

    2. COActually the sample movie does seem to work fine in Resources, but this video still doesn't. I guess this file is somehow subtly corrupt or incompatible, yet it plays fine in everything else and the video player even knows how long it is! Also, I've had videos from the same source and same encoding settings working on Android before, weird! Thanks for your advice, I think I'll start trying different videos and see if I can narrow the problem down :(

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.
