I am assigned with a task to play a video in Android. Also, they mentioned if I use HLS it would be nicer. I tried playing video in VideoView, works good. I don't know anything about HLS. So I request, if I get some valuable resources on how to play video using HLS in android, it would be great.
Any leads are appreciated.
Thanks
The Android VideoView
has limited steaming support (HLS, DASH, Smooth Stream, etc.) especially on older API versions. The best option would be to use the ExoPlayer library from google (or a wrapper around it like ExoMedia).
As an note, the streaming protocols are only supported on API 15+
