[Bug] MediaElement doesn't like being inside a StackLayout (particularly on Android) #9573

Open davidbritch opened 4 years ago

davidbritch commented 4 years ago

Description

With the following code I'd expect to display a MediaElement above a Button:

<ContentPage>
    <StackLayout>
        <MediaElement Source="https://sec.ch9.ms/ch9/5d93/a1eab4bf-3288-4faf-81c4-294402a85d93/XamarinShow_mid.mp4"
                      ShowsPlaybackControls="True" />
        <Button Text="Button that does nothing" />
    </StackLayout>
</ContentPage>

What I get is this:

See screenshots below.

On iOS, if you put the Button followed by the MediaElement it behaves as expected. But on Android you still don't get the MediaElement.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Run the attached sample.
  2. Browse to the last page (test page).

Expected Behavior

MediaElement with a Button underneath it.

Actual Behavior

On iOS, a MediaElement that fills the screen. No sign of the Button. On Android, a Button and no sign of the MediaElement.

After more investigation this issue is about layouts in general, not just specifically the StackLayout. For example, the same result (MediaElement not shown) is achieved in a two row Grid, where the row containing the MediaElement is set to Auto size. However, the MediaElement does appear in a Grid row whose size is set to *.

So it appears that the MediaElement doesn't force layout to be re-evaluated once the size of the control is known, after the Source has been loaded.

This seems to be present in the latest preview version as well. Any ETA on this?

This should get the "MediaElement" label. It doesn't show up as a bug in that project.

still facing same issue just on Android, any workaround for this?
