Dear all,
I’d like to play some remote videos in my application, and they work from a simple lua scene. But when I call media.playVideo or native.newVideo from a native.newWebView object, it doesn’t work.
Specifically, I get the medica controls, and almost immediately the media player closes. With one or two videos, on the other hand, I get a black screen, without any possibility to interact with the app, and after playing the movie I gain controls again with the native webview.
In my local HTML view I intercept the URL movie: in my listener:
local function txthandler(event) if event.url then log.log("You are visiting: " .. event.url) if event.url == "corona:cancel" then log.log("DELETE SCENE!") composer.gotoScene("menu", vars.fade) end if string.find(event.url, "movie:") ~= nil then local s = string.sub(event.url, 7) log.log("PLAY MOVIE " .. s) if true then media.playVideo(s, media.RemoteSource, true) else local video = native.newVideo(vars.cx, vars.cy, vars.w, vars.h) video:load(s, media.RemoteSource) video:addEventListener( "video", function (event) log.log("Video event phase: " .. event.phase) if event.errorCode then native.showAlert("Error", event.errorMessage, { "OK" }) end end) video:play() --video:pause() --video:removeSelf() --video = nil end return true end end
These are the logs from the device:

What am I missing here?
Thanks!
