Android MediaPlayer Tutorial. Android provides many ways to control playback of audio/video files and streams.
One of this way is through a class called MediaPlayer. Android is providing MediaPlayer class to access built-in mediaplayer services like playing audio,video e.t.c. In order to use MediaPlayer , we have to call a static Method create() of this class. This method returns an instance of MediaPlayer class. Its syntax is as follows − MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.song); The second parameter is the name of the song that you want to play. Once you have created the Mediaplayer object you can call some methods to start or stop the music.
MediaPlayer.start(); mediaPlayer.pause(); On call to start() method, the music will start playing from the beginning. In order to start music from the beginning , you have to call reset() method. MediaPlayer.reset(); Apart from the start and pause method, there are other methods provided by this class for better dealing with audio/video files.
Video - AndroidYouTubePlayer. AndroidYouTubePlayer The AndroidYouTubePlayer is a simple View that can be easily integrated in every Activity/Fragment.
The interaction with YouTube is based on the IFrame Player API, therefore the YouTube app is not required to use the player. This library has been developed out of necessity. At the time I was working on an app completely based on the fruition of YouTube videos. There's an official API provided by Google for the integration of YouTube videos in an Android app: the YouTube Android Player API. So here it is, the AndroidYouTubePlayer. Download the sample app here Apps using this library: Shuffly Download. GitHub - florent37/MaterialViewPager: A Material Design ViewPager easy to use library.

Butter Knife. Introduction Annotate fields with @Bind and a view ID for Butter Knife to find and automatically cast the corresponding view in your layout. class ExampleActivity extends Activity { @Bind(R.id.title) TextView title; @Bind(R.id.subtitle) TextView subtitle; @Bind(R.id.footer) TextView footer; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.simple_activity); ButterKnife.bind(this); // TODO Use fields... }} Instead of slow reflection, code is generated to perform the view look-ups.
Calling bind delegates to this generated code that you can see and debug. The generated code for the above example is roughly equivalent to the following: Material Design with the Android Design Support Library. Material Design, a new design language that gives design guidelines for Android apps and apps on other platforms, was introduced with the release of Android 5.0 Lollipop.
With it came new UI components such as the ‘Floating Action Button’. Implementing these new components while ensuring backward compatibility was typically a tedious process. Third party libraries would usually be needed to streamline the process. At this year’s Google IO conference, Google introduced the Android Design Support Library which brings a number of important material design components to developers. The components are backwards compatible, with support back to Android 2.1 and implementing them is easier than previously. Getting Started You can find the final project code on gitHub. Before getting started on the components, we’ll set up the project and set some styles. Add the following dependencies to the build.gradle (Module:app) file.
