Playing Video in a RecyclerView with ExoPlayer

How to use viewpager2 instead of recycler view and display one item at a time (full screen). By the way, this video was very helpful. Thnx!!

[@HessamYusuf]

Thanks for this great tutorial. I'm implementing this with different types of data, for example, some posts in recyclerview will have video with some text description while others will have Images with text and some may only be presented with Text only. Now everything is working as expected except for one thing. If the recyclerview will present a post with video, it will start playing video and I can mute unmute the video by tapping on that specific card, the next card in recyclerview is displaying Image with textview both cards cover 50% 50% of the screen. Now if a tap on the second card with Imageview still it will mute unmute the video playing in the first cardview.

[@HessamYusuf]

I can put a flag in recyclerview class to check if the card contains video content or not and based on that I can trigger the sound control but that doesn't seem the right way.

I was one of the people who watched the whole video 🎉. I'm gonna also check the Exoplayer 101 blog post. And I've watched the Retrofit video also. KZbin lacks high-quality tutorials like yours, at least the stuff I searched for (recyclerview, exoplayer, retrofit, etc.) Thanks for the huge help and keep it up!

[@artb7788]

Nice tutorial , small thing forgot to mention "INTERNET" permissions

[@liweigao4755]

Got inspired when trying to load multiple maps inside recyclerview. A potential improvement is to call addVideo() after initializing the reyclerview. Otherwise, the first video will not autoplay until you scroll.

[@yusufharith4994]

i have the same issue of the first video not playing.. can you explain more ?

[@arunharbola3006]

Nice tutorial , man ! It just cleared all my doubts .

How can i play lottie animations in recyclerview items ? If i have to play animation on only item which is visible to user in a horizontal recycler view.

[@ФилиппПересветов]

Mitch excellent tutorial as always. I only have a question why you choosed aproach with creating PlyerView and putting it to the viewHolder rather than having PlayerView in viewHolder xml? I made similiar variant with one media player for recycler view but with playerView in recycler item xml. It seems much easier.

can you help me so that at a single time only 1 video view on main page not multiple

[@amitkumardas5650]

Thank you for this video, Its awesome. I have one question though, and that is about maintaining the state of the video with screen orientation. If in the potrait mode the video starts playing(inside a fragment) and the screen orientation changes to landscape (fragment takes up the whole space, like the youtube app), how to keep the video playing seamlessly. It would be of great help if you can explain this. Thank you again.
