Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugAssets'. React Native

Question

when I install react-native-video in my react native app, my app shows an error. and I get the following error:

• What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugAssets'.

Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:debugRuntimeClasspath'. Could not find com.yqritc:android-scalablevideoview:1.0.4. Searched in the following locations: - file:/C:/React-Native-Projects/GymBuddyApp/node_modules/react-native/android/com/yqritc/android-scalablevideoview/1.0.4/android-scalablevideoview-1.0. 4.pom

Can someone help me?

Answer 1

in your android/build.gradle file try to edit as follows the clean and build your project

allprojects {
    repositories {
        .... # Keep the rest
        jcenter() {
            content {
                includeModule("com.yqritc", "android-scalablevideoview")
            }
        }
    }
}
