Hi, i have made a search but couldn't find a similar post, so;
i designed a very basic app to work with video players, my purpose is to show videos with some control buttons, nothing special here, but what i struggle with is my video has black bars and i cant get rid of them, i set the player height and width to automatic but i have black bars at below and above, i thought when i set it to automatic so videoplayer will be the size of the video but obviously it doesnt. so would you give me suggestions?
Hi, thanks for your interest, my video plays without black bars only if i set specific percentages for video player height and width settings but obviously that is not a solution since it only works for my device’s resolution and display ratio but i am in a responsive design so its not solution,
Actually this is a video from a screen recording and i cropped it as i liked so it doesn’t have a certain aspect ratio( i basically cropped it on my cellphone)
And sorry but i am not pro to understand about your suggestion
“ ffmpeg -i myvideo.mp4”
Sorry for that,
My video was screenrecorded in HVEC and i converted it into .mp4 to reduce its size. So do i need to convert the orijinal HVEC file in a specific way? And if i need to convert again, i can choose 3gp or mp4 since these are the only codecs App Inventor accepts.
You have an interesting looking device i cant comprehend what i see so there is no bars at any edge.. i dont know what i am doing wrong, as you see in .aia file there is no settings i touched..
Ok it seems i am the only one who is facing this issue here, i am testing it on an iphone 13 PM and i am in Responsive Design and i dont know what i did wrong.
OMG, i am so sorry, i know App inventor and IOS implement is in progress for years long but i am only using iphone with Companion App for testing and since i have no Android phone anymore,i didnt know an iphone could be a problem even in the Companion app. i am so sorry yall, ok i guess i need an Android phone, thanks for your interest, i have another question; as i see we all have video control button when we tap on video but actually i wouldnt want that, so should i convert my video to gif and use it with webViewer?
I didnt finish the design details yet since i am back to App Inventor after a while, i am warming up again so testing is what i am doing for now but probably i will need to play videos on a landscape mode about 3/2 of the screen which seems around 1500X800px
Yes, actually i could achieve a barless video frame with some px numbers for my phone but i am designing it for Anroid phones and i am working with Responsive design so on another screen those specific pixel numbers wont work same as on Control device. am i correct? I know neither pixel number nor the aspect ratio has any logical standard i cropped these videos from my screen recording, so aspect ratio for my total 11 videos is a mess..
Yes i saw them. and umm...what should i do with them? I wont use specific pixel numbers for playing video, sorry i couldnt get what you are trying to show me, you mean its a large video than it should be ?
i cant comprehend what i see
