How to disable Touch while video is playing

Question

I am developing a Toddler(kids) app in which I have shown the YouTube videos thumbnails in a recyclerview and whenever the user clicks on any of the listed thumbnails that video plays in full screen YouTube intent( and all the videos after that plays in order automatically). I am succeed in doing so. The problem is now I want to disable the touch screen while the video is playing. I thought of making transparent layout and to show this transparent layout as upper layer on YouTube Full screen video intent but i dont know how to attach this layout with Youtube video intent. Every kind of help is appreciated. below is my code:

main_activity.xml:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:weightSum="2"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context="com.example.pc.fkidshell.Main4Activity">

    <include layout="@layout/toolbar"
        android:id="@+id/my_thirdtoolbar"/>

    <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/VideoList"
        android:layout_below="@+id/my_thirdtoolbar"
        android:paddingTop="20dp"
        android:scrollbars="vertical">

    </android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
</RelativeLayout>

video_row.xml:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/thumbnailView"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"/>
</LinearLayout>

Answer 2

As stated in this thread, this is impossible as you cannot override the home button even if it is soft or hard button. However, you can use third party apps like Untouch which is a very popular one, and can be found in the play store. (Search for Untouch or touch block and it should come up.) You may also check on this blog that discussed some workaround for your issue. Hope this helps!
