wonderful work thank you very much, I have one question can this play audio too |
|
@RadwanIbrahim yes you can play any audio format supported on the underlying platform e.g. mp3 etc |
Switched to https video uri to allow playback in iOS. Increased media control button sizes

Hi @peterfoot can we rebase/merge master? thanks |
…r to workaround issue with dispose when using on modal pages.
|
@rmarinho will try again to rebase tomorrow as I ran into errors running it today. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
@samhouts do we need this to be sealed? I realize it's experimental but seeing as how it's experimental being able to extend the renderer seems even more important because of the possibility of needing to add behavior or work around bugs

@peterfoot can you give me access to make some changes so I can fix the compile errors? |
|
@PureWeen I fixed those two but you should have access now if you need to make any other changes |
|
@peterfoot needs rebase or merge master |
merge master
|
Failing tests appear to be unrelated and are passing locally. DRUMROLL PLEASE |
|
@peterfoot Amazing. Congratulations!!! One question though. How to enable lock screen notifications and to control the player from notification screen? |
|
@abdu292 This isn't supported currently. It will require some investigation to find a cross-platform way of exposing this but it's a good idea for a future update! |
|
thanks @peterfoot. Eagerly waiting for this to be a part. MediaManager plugin has something implemented, which you may have a look at, to get some idea on this. |
|
@peterfoot Congrats Peter just saw the merge request cant wait get this down and play with it. Planning on making a running app and music is one of its features. Do we no what live version this will go in to or will it be pre-release for now. |
|
@abdu292 it's never going to happen. MediaManager has a dependency on Exoplayer and I don't believe Forms is going to do that. Better use MediaManager for everything media related ;) |
|
thanks @martijn00 . I meant to say to look at the media manager code just to get an idea and not to copy the exact code. Media manager uses Exo for android, that doesn't mean Notifications can't be integrated with simple Media player (as you must know). Player and notifications are two different things, though exo has a nice way of integrating notification. You/Baseflow have done an excellent job with MediaManager. I have been using MediaManager in the past months. However I ran in to multiple issues - may be my specific use cases - and started writing my own player & notification implementations. Also, when I looked at the history of release it's really scary. It doesn't have a consistent maintaining history, release are not at all consistent (Yes, I understand its open source and releases don't have to be consistent), some comments in the github issues give an impression to the developers that the owner is angry/owner is not interested to maintain the repo any more, etc. |

Might be dumb question been away from xammy for a while how does one turn on the feature flag what file ??? |

No problem @davidbuckleyni! You can find that info on the Docs for the actual control. In this case right under the first screenshot here. I have a somewhat more generic blog post about it here. |

Description of Change
Adds a simple MediaElement control to Xamarin Forms. The control can play online and local content (app package via ms-appx uris and app data folder using ms-appdata) along with file uris. There are full renderers for Android, iOS and UWP and a limited renderer for WPF.
A page has been added to the ControlGallery project to demo the control but there are no automated tests currently.
Issues Resolved
API Changes
Added:
MediaElement class
Aspect property
AutoPlay property
BufferingProgress property
CanSeek property
CurrentState property
Duration property
IsLooping property
KeepScreenOn property
Position property
ShowsPlaybackControls property
Source property
VideoHeight property
VideoWidth property
Volume property
Play method
Pause method
Stop method
MediaEnded event
MediaFailed event
MediaOpened event
SeekCompleted event
MediaElementState enum
MediaSource class
FileMediaSource class
UriMediaSource class
The API is largely unchanged from the original InTheHand.Forms.MediaElement except Stretch is replaced with the existing Aspect enum used by the Image control.
Platforms Affected
*Android will not render video stretched to fill (Aspect.Fill) and so will default to the same behaviour as Aspect.AspectFit adding letter-boxing if necessary.
**WPF renderer doesn't currently support all functionality - ShowsPlaybackControls has not equivalent functionality in underlying control. Currently Position change events don't function.
Behavioral/Visual Changes
N/A This is a new control
