}

Usage

Add below code to AndroidManifest.xml file

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<!-- Add this internet permission to play video from server or any other url/link  -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<!-- Add this read storage permission to play video from mobile device  -->

<application
    ...
    android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
    ...>
    <activity
        ...
        android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden"
        android:screenOrientation="fullSensor"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
        ...>
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

Now change styles.xml for full screen video:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>

Add view to your layout.xml & bind as usual:

<com.ykhokhaneshiya.dcdhameliya.ydplayer.YdPlayer
        android:id="@+id/yd_video"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />

Actvity.java

    YdPlayer ydPlayer;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // for full scrren video plyer
        requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

        setContentView(R.layout.layout);
        
        // initialization of ydPlayer
        ydPlayer = findViewById(R.id.yd_video);

        // this method is used to set a video in player you can also pass local path of a video, Last parameter is a video name
        ydPlayer.setUp(this, "http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/BigBuckBunny.mp4", "Local Video");

        // if you want to set thumbnail then set your thumbnail in ydPlayer.posterImageView 
        Glide.with(this).load("https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/Pkmq1nm3skO0-j693JTMd7RL0Zk=/0x0:2012x1341/1200x800/filters:focal(0x0:2012x1341)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/47070706/google2.0.0.jpg").into(ydPlayer.posterImageView);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();

        // to pause video, it is necessary
        ydPlayer.pause();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();

        // to start a video, it is not necessary
