SetVideoSource

[Sifogiannos]

When i try to set a second url in function setViewSource for the second player it says "IllegalStateException".

Code example

VidstaPlayer player = (VidstaPlayer) findViewById(R.id.player);
player.setVideoSource("http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/videos/big_buck_bunny.mp4");
...
...
public void changeUrl(String url){
   player.setVideoSource(url);
}

Can you try stopping the first video first? It's most likely getting confused about the current state of the player.

[Sifogiannos]

Can i stop it programatically?

Actualy the video has not started because i have set property player.setAutoPlay(false);

[JakeSteam]

Should be able to. I'm not near my machine atm, but something like player.stop()?

[Sifogiannos]

Does not seems to work either.

[JakeSteam]

Darn. I'll take a look for next release, a possible workaround would be programmatically creating the VidstaPlayer as a new object on-screen, although it will be inefficient.

[Sifogiannos]

Creating about 300+ players it will be very inefficient, I will find some solution. Anyway thanks for your quick response. I will wait for the next release.

Just call videoPlayer.reset() before videoPlayer.setDataSource() on setUpVideoPlayer() method. Can you provide an update with this solution?

[JakeSteam]

I'm afraid I don't have time to update the project, pull requests are welcomed.
