I made a video player based on VideoView widget. The videos are loaded from internet.
Everything works fine, except one little thing.
I open a video, and while it is playing I click the “Next” button to advance to the next video. And the issue is that while the next video is loading, it shows me the thumbnail of previous video.
I would like to not display any thumbnail, or at least the thumbnail of currently loading video, but deffinetly NOT the thumbnail of previous video.
So, is there a method like “flush()”, or something like this to clear the videovideo and not show the thumbn. of previous video? Or at least why does it happen?
To get rid off that thumbnail, it was necessary to re-creating the VideoView when clicking Next/Prev buttons. Maybe not one of the best solution, but at least it solved the issue.
