This lesson is about how you can play video in background inside your application using Sketchware by following this Steps.

First Step:

Create a New project and add linear 1 ( for playing the video) and Linear2 for adding others things like ( button, image, textview......,)

Go back to "Oncreat", and add block from Operateur with name "add scour",

And put this code on it: 

String path = "android.resource://" +

getPackageName() + "/" +

R.raw.video_file;

final VideoView vd = new VideoView(Splash2Activity.this);

vd.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));

vd.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(path));

vd.requestFocus();

vd.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener(){

   @Override

   public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer _mediaPlayer){

    vd.start();

   }

  });

vd.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {

public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {

vd.start();

} });

//this layout will conatin your video view

RelativeLayout rl = new RelativeLayout(this);

//this layout will contain your widgets which are to be shown on video

RelativeLayout rl2 = new RelativeLayout(this);

rl2.addView(vd, -1,-1);

linear1.removeAllViews();

rl.addView(rl2, -1,-1);

rl.addView(linear2, -1,-1);

linear1.addView(rl,-1,-1);

//this property will all the video to be played in full screen

DisplayMetrics metrics  DisplayMetrics(); getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics); android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = (android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams) vd.getLayoutParams(); 

params.addRule(android.widget.RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP, android.widget.RelativeLayout.TRUE);

params.addRule(android.widget.RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_START, android.widget.RelativeLayout.TRUE);

params.addRule(android.widget.RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_END, android.widget.RelativeLayout.TRUE);
