Problem: I have a viewPager with 3 fragments, the first one has a videoView. When I change to the second fragment, the video stops and when I change to the third, the same. But when I change from the third fragment to the second one, the video starts playing in the background. I want the video to play only in the first fragment. How can i solve this problem? Thanks

When you use an FragmentPagerAdapter, it pre-loads your fragments to left and right of your fragment in focus. So when you scroll from position 0 to 1 to 2, the fragment in position 0 is removed. When you then scroll back to position 1, the fragment in position 0 is re-loaded, which triggers creating the view. If you look at your HomeFragment, you trigger playing video when in OnCreateView().
To resolve this, you need to change how you trigger playing the video from when the Fragment is created to instead be activated when it scrolls into view. You are already halfway there with your empty OnPageChangeListener. You should check the position in onPageSelected() and start the video there instead of in the Fragment's OnCreateView
