Video View Plugin

opens a videoView in android and plays any android supported video

Install

phonegap create videoview
cd videoview
phonegap plugin add https://github.com/mikeRead/adVideoView.git

Read "Important!" below VVV

IMPORTANT!

In most cases,after installing this plugin, you will need to edit line 24 of platforms/android/src/org/ihopkc/videoplayer/play.java ( https://github.com/mikeRead/videoview/blob/master/src/android/play.java )

Find (on line 24)

import com.phonegap.helloworld.R;

and replace with your own project name space

for example, if you ran

phonegap create name com.example.project_name_space "CordovaProjectName"

you will need to replace (on line 24)

import com.phonegap.helloworld.R;

with

import com.example.project_names_space.R;

then you can run

phonegap build android

successfully

Usage

To open the video in android's video view run this javascript function

 var showAds = true;  //or false;
 var isLive  = false; //or true;
 var adServer = "http://mars.ihopkc.org/vast/live.php"; //optinal
 window.androidPlay('http://link/to/android/supported/video.mp4', showAds, isLive [,adServer] );

Ad server example :

{
   settings: {
       nextAdTime: 30000, //ms til next ad will play
       adSkipTime: 10000  //ms til user can skip ad 
   },
   ad: {
       overlay: {
           image: "banner image url",
