Usage

Here is an example flow:

[Gif example](art/flow.gif)

Here you can view all examples visible on gif.

When you use loop then video will be looping forever:

[Img1](art/loop.gif)

<com.marcinmoskala.videoplayview.VideoPlayView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    app:loop="true"
    app:videoUrl="https://github.com/MarcinMoskala/VideoPlayView/raw/master/videos/cat1.mp4" />

You can set custom loader for the time when movie is downloaded from URL:

[Img1](art/loading.gif)

<com.marcinmoskala.videoplayview.VideoPlayView
    android:id="@+id/bigVideoView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    app:videoUrl="https://github.com/MarcinMoskala/VideoPlayView/raw/master/videos/gdg.mp4" />

Static images can be set in xml, as loadingButton, but to display gif we need to use some library, like Glide:

VideoPlayView bigVideoView = findViewById(R.id.bigVideoView);
Glide.with(this)
        .load(R.drawable.loader)
        .into(bigVideoView.getLoadingView());

You can also show preview images. What is more, videos can be paused by user and preview image is shown then:

[Img1](art/pause.gif)

<com.marcinmoskala.videoplayview.VideoPlayView
    android:id="@+id/picassoVideoView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    app:loop="true"
    app:videoUrl="https://github.com/MarcinMoskala/VideoPlayView/raw/master/videos/cat1.mp4" />

Image for loading and for pause can be defined in xml as image or it can be set programmatically. Then we can use libraries, like Picasso, to load it:

VideoPlayView videoView = findViewById(R.id.picassoVideoView);
Picasso.with(this).load("http://i.imgur.com/DvpvklR.png").into(videoView.getImageView());
