Method loadVideoFromAsset must be called from UI thread


I am trying to implement 360 Video Viewer in my project but I am getting an error for the line:

mVrVideoView.loadVideoFromAsset("sea.mp4", options);

This is the error

Method loadVideoFromAsset must be called from the UI thread, currently inferred 
thread is worker

Following is my code:

package com.example.jal.jp;

import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton;
import android.support.design.widget.Snackbar;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.SeekBar;

import com.google.vr.sdk.widgets.video.VrVideoEventListener;
import com.google.vr.sdk.widgets.video.VrVideoView;

import java.io.IOException;

public abstract class VR_Video extends AppCompatActivity implements SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener {

    private VrVideoView mVrVideoView;
    private SeekBar mSeekBar;
    private Button mVolumeButton;

    private boolean mIsPaused;
    private boolean mIsMuted;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_vr__video);

        initViews();

    }
    public void onPlayPausePressed() {

    }

    public void onVolumeToggleClicked() {

    }

    @Override
    public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int i, boolean b) {

    }

    private void initViews() {
        mVrVideoView = (VrVideoView) findViewById(R.id.video_view);
        mSeekBar = (SeekBar) findViewById(R.id.seek_bar);
        mVolumeButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_volume);
        mVrVideoView.setEventListener(new ActivityEventListener());
        mSeekBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(this);
        mVolumeButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                onVolumeToggleClicked();
            }
        });
    }
    class VideoLoaderTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Boolean> {

        @Override
        protected Boolean doInBackground(Void... voids) {
            try {
                VrVideoView.Options options = new VrVideoView.Options();
                options.inputType = VrVideoView.Options.TYPE_MONO;
                mVrVideoView.loadVideoFromAsset("sea.mp4", options);
            } catch( IOException e ) {
                //Handle exception
            }

            return true;
        }
    }
    public void playPause() {

    }
    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        mVrVideoView.pauseRendering();
        mIsPaused = true;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        mVrVideoView.resumeRendering();
        mIsPaused = false;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onDestroy() {
        mVrVideoView.shutdown();
        super.onDestroy();
    }
    private class ActivityEventListener extends VrVideoEventListener {
        @Override
        public void onLoadSuccess() {
            super.onLoadSuccess();
        }

        @Override
        public void onLoadError(String errorMessage) {
            super.onLoadError(errorMessage);
        }

        @Override
        public void onClick() {
            super.onClick();
        }

        @Override
        public void onNewFrame() {
            super.onNewFrame();
        }

        @Override
        public void onCompletion() {
            super.onCompletion();
        }
    }
}

Please help. I tried my best but couldn't fix.


Solution

  • Remove AsyncTask Implementation And Call Required Methods From UI Thread

    Use Below Code :

    private void initViews() {
        mVrVideoView = (VrVideoView) findViewById(R.id.video_view);
        mSeekBar = (SeekBar) findViewById(R.id.seek_bar);
        mVolumeButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_volume);
        mVrVideoView.setEventListener(new ActivityEventListener());
        try {
                VrVideoView.Options options = new VrVideoView.Options();
                options.inputType = VrVideoView.Options.TYPE_MONO;
                mVrVideoView.loadVideoFromAsset("sea.mp4", options);
            } catch( IOException e ) {
                //Handle exception
            }
        mSeekBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(this);
        mVolumeButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                onVolumeToggleClicked();
            }
        });
    }
