when onBindViewHolder called play video and if not stop video in recyclerview

Question

I need to play video when onBindViewHolder() is called and then if the item is scrolled down or top, I need to stop that video. How to do it in RecyclerView's adapter?

Answer 1

You can override onViewAttachedToWindow(VH holder) and onViewDetachedFromWindow(VH holder) methods in your adapter. Then start and stop the video in their body. As documentation said:

onViewAttachedToWindow is called when a view created by this adapter has been attached to a window.

onViewDetachedFromWindow is called when a view created by this adapter has been detached from its window.

Here I found some links for you :

• Implementing video playback in a scrolled list (ListView & RecyclerView)
• https://github.com/Krupen/AutoplayVideos
• https://ene.im/2017/07/09/toro-101-how-to-1/

You can understand the concept after seeing these links.

For your question I just google that play pause video in recylcerview android and I hope next time you will do same things as I do.
