OMXPlayer, MediaSanner, MediaPlayer, VideoView...

OMXPlayer is an Interface Only:
-- framework/base/include/media/OMXPlayer.h

class OMXPlayer : public MediaPlayerInterface
{
public:
                        OMXPlayer(int nMediaType = 0);
    virtual             ~OMXPlayer();

    virtual status_t    initCheck();
    virtual status_t    setDataSource(const char *url, const KeyedVector *headers);
    virtual status_t    setDataSource(int fd, int64_t offset, int64_t length);
    virtual status_t    setVideoSurface(const sp& surface);
    virtual status_t    setVideoSurface(const android::sp& surface);
    virtual status_t    setVideoSurfaceTexture(const android::sp& surfaceTexture);
    virtual status_t    prepare();
    virtual status_t    prepareAsync();
    virtual status_t    start();
    virtual status_t    stop();
    virtual status_t    pause();
    virtual bool        isPlaying();
....

實做的大概是： frameworks/base/media/libmediaplayerservice/MediaPlayerService.cpp

..
實際上，這也是個空殼而已，真的 player 是在 prebuild .so 。在 device 下的 propriety/libs 下有一些 _omx_player_..

用較簡單的 Gallery 來看，啟動到最後，是 MovieView.java
這是一個 Activity，onCreate 後就直接播放影片了。

MovieView 只有實做三個 callback:

• onCreate : new MovieViewControl
• onPause : call MovieViewControl.onPause
• onResume : call MovieViewControl.onResume
• onWindowFocusChanged : call MovieViewControl.onResume/li>

Video 播放直接關聯到 VideoView 這個 layout，
在 res/layout/movie_view.xml 中放入一個 object:

    <VideoView android:id="@+id/surface_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_centerInParent="true" />

然後在 source:

    private final VideoView mVideoView;
     .....
       mVideoView = (VideoView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.surface_view);
 

取得 VideoView 元件後，就可以對 VideoView 操作：
如果有時作幾個 需要的interface，就可以接著設定：

        mVideoView.setOnErrorListener(this);
        mVideoView.setOnCompletionListener(this);

設定要撥的file (uri)，和 control.

        mVideoView.setVideoURI(mUri);
        mMediaController = new MediaController(context);
        mVideoView.setMediaController(mMediaController);

然後，就可以開始播放：

        mVideoView.start();

另外一個是在 development/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/media/MeduaPlayerDemo_Video.java

還有有關 scanfile 的 sample code，在 development/samples 下也有...
development/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/content/ExternalStorage.java

這一段code:

        File path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
                Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES);
        File file = new File(path, "DemoPicture.jpg");

        ....
        ....
            // Tell the media scanner about the new file so that it is
            // immediately available to the user.
            MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(this,
                    new String[] { file.toString() }, null,
                    new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener() {
                public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) {
                    Log.i("ExternalStorage", "Scanned " + path + ":");
                    Log.i("ExternalStorage", "-> uri=" + uri);
                }
            });

所以可以把 file path 丟到這裡scan 轉成 media Uri
?

最後拿 developement/sample 的 MediaPlayerDemo_Video.java 來測試。
原來是用 file path，改成用 scan 後的 Uri。

diff 是：
