Video background on entire screen

Question

I want to have a video background on my entire screen. Everything works correctly in java: it loops etc. The problem might be in xml. Currently I have video on a top of the screen, it looks like this: (Video is perfeclty fitted in edges)

While my purpose is to have it entirely in my screen:

Please what should i make my xml look like to achieve my goal. Thanks.

XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/home_container"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>

<VideoView
    android:id="@+id/surface"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
/>
</FrameLayout>

First you need to set the orientation to landscape since you said you purpose is in landscape mode

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE); // add it below super.oncreate

If this code not working check out this link

or your could set the orientation in manifest just google it

And change this in your xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/home_container"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>

<VideoView
    android:id="@+id/surface"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:gravity="center"
/>
</FrameLayout>
