I was wondering if there was a way I can generate a video to play that's within a raw folder which is dependent on what is selected from two spinner drop-down menus? I'm trying to make a video navigation app for my school that asks the user to select a starting point for their navigation and their desired classroom. So far I've just got one video to successfully play back. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here's my main
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
public Spinner start, end;
private Button done;
public TextView start_display, end_display;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
addStartPoint(); //Implements the start point spinner
addEndPoint(); //Implements the end point spinner
start = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.startingPoint_spinner);
end = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.endPoint_spinner);
done=(Button)findViewById(R.id.done);
done.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) { //Go to selected layout when done button is clicked
Intent i = new Intent(MainActivity.this, SelectingItem.class);
startActivity(i);
start_display = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.txtStart);
end_display = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.txtEnd);
start = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.startingPoint_spinner);
};
});
}
public void addStartPoint()
{
Resources res = getResources(); //Refers to startpoint array created in strings.xml
String[] startpoint = res.getStringArray(R.array.startpoint);
}
public void addEndPoint()
{
Resources res = getResources(); //Refers to endpoint array created in strings.xml
String[] endpoint = res.getStringArray(R.array.endpoint);
}
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
SelectingItem Screen
public class SelectingItem extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.selected_layout);
VideoView videoView = (VideoView)this.findViewById(R.id.VideoView);
MediaController mediaController=new MediaController(this);
mediaController.setAnchorView(videoView);
videoView.setMediaController(mediaController);
String uri = "android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.meb2101; //This line will need to be changed to an if/else statement for all routes
videoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(uri));
videoView.start();
}
}
