I have used Movie in Processing for Windows from processing.video.* but cannot use it in android. I have tried using FileDescriptor and getAssets etc with the video in data or other folder (located via Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()) but I just get a null pointer, although it is looking …

@paturn === i heve verified, the code is ok; there wa probably a typo with cut && copy; i put the code again: dont forget the permission and put the orientation according to your video. import android.R; import android.media.MediaMetadataRetriever; import android.os.Looper; import android.app.Act…

Thank you akenaton. I’ll try it tomorrow. When I’ve written programs for video in Eclipse I’ve always used just READ EXTERNAL STORAGE permission. Does Processing require extra pemissions?

@paturn ==== write is more potent: if you can write you can read!!!

@akenaton Result is the following error Found a { that’s missing a matching } That is all. One line. Not even a list or an explanation of what “a” is. I must be missing something which your code requires and my previous code did not require. Any ideas?

Have you been able to run it? If you are, would you share it? I also have problems with the video :slight_smile:

@clay21 No, please see above result. Previous videos on android using Eclipse work OK but I can’t get a video to run on Processing for Android.

I get the surface view from this, but I still get the error message file not found. This applies to the data folder or any folder located from the Environment source. Whenever I use any other of my android apps (via Eclipse) the correct video file is found. I assume my settings in Processing are n…

I’ve removed the reference to the GStreamer library but it still gives the same error of file not found. Is there a different video library that I should be using?

[image] paturn: via Eclipse When you have some time could you please install APDE and test the code of the link above? It will only take a minute or two. Because when I use a file in the data folder, I don’t need any permission at all. I’m curious if it can be device-dependent,

@akenaton I still get no file found using your latest code, both for default data folder and one located with Environment. I am using Processing 3.5.4
