How to re-position a VideoView along with its parent?

Question

I have a Fragment within a FrameLayout. The Fragment contains a VideoView amongst other things. If I modify the FrameLayout's left position (by calling its layout(...) method), the FrameLayout and the Fragment within it re-position themselves correctly. The VideoView within the Fragment sometimes re-positions itself but most often stays put.

Does anyone know why the VideoView is not re-positioning itself within its parent? Does anyone know how I might be able to get it to do so?

Answer 1

I gave up in the end. There doesn't seem to be a straightforward workaround for re-positioning a VideoView or any workaround for that matter. What I'm doing now instead is to play the video full screen in a new activity.
