Hello, I can’t play video on my phone, but the picture is working, I don’t know what I did wrong I have looked at other forums but quite old ones I would be glad if you could help. HERE IS MY CODE

import processing.video.\*;

Movie mov;  
int timer=1500;

void setup() {  
size(displayWidth,displayHeight);  
mov=new Movie(this,“anime1.mp4”);

}

void draw() {  
background(0);

```
 page3();

```

}  
void page3() {  
image(mov,0,0,width,height/2);  
fill(255);

textSize(50);  
text(“John Doe, Yedi Olumcul Gunahtan Birini Isledikleri Icin Suclulari \n Cezalandirir. Once Pesine Dustugu Kurban Hangi Gunahtan Suclu?”, 0, height/2+100);

if (mouseX\>50 && mouseY\>height/2+400 && mouseX\<350 && mouseY\<height/2+550 && mousePressed==true ) {

```
 rect(50, height/2+400, 300, 150);
rect(width/2-130, height/2+400, 300, 150);
rect(width/2+400, height/2+400, 300, 150);
setup();

```

} else if (mouseX\>width/2-130 && mouseY\>height/2+400 && mouseX\<width/2+170 && mouseY\<height/2+550 && mousePressed==true) {

```
 rect(50, height/2+400, 300, 150);
rect(width/2-130, height/2+400, 300, 150);
rect(width/2+400, height/2+400, 300, 150);

setup();

```

} else if (mouseX\>width/2+400 && mouseY\>height/2+400 && mouseX\<width/2+700 && mouseY\<height/2+550 && mousePressed==true) {

```
 rect(50, height/2+400, 300, 150);
rect(width/2-130, height/2+400, 300, 150);
rect(width/2+400, height/2+400, 300, 150);
setup();

```

} else {  
fill(0);  
stroke(255);  
rect(50, height/2+400, 300, 150);  
rect(width/2-130, height/2+400, 300, 150);  
rect(width/2+400, height/2+400, 300, 150);  
fill(255);  
text(“Kibir”, 145, height/2+488);  
text(“Tembellik”, width/2-70,height/2+488);  
text(“Kiskanclik”, width/2+450, height/2+488);  
textSize(60);  
text("KALAN SANIYE : "+timer/100.0,420,height/2+900);  
timer–;

}  
}

@clay21 === Processing videos do not work with android and there are a lot of posts about android+video on the forum…

I saw you in every android video forum, I understand that you are trying to teach the code, but I believe that I will learn better by studying the code.

Not a simple maybe. I’ve just tested it [with this video](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PO6x1kKs85_cPs1TzOOXjgsNp1dFjiRt/view?usp=sharing), on an Android 10 and a Lollipop device.  
[Here’s the code.](https://github.com/EmmanuelPil/Android-java-code-utilities-widgets-for-Processing-for-Android/blob/master/Video%20player)  
Edit: If you are using APDE, you have to move fullScreen(); from settings() to setup(), because in the last version, settings() can be used anymore.

That’s the way I learn also. Take a working code and strip it all to the part you just want. But at least you have to try.
