Video Player Properties

Player Mode

Determines the player mode and can be one of
  • PlayerMode.FIT_MODE: This state causes the player surface cuts into a smaller area of the screen while it maintains the 9:16 aspect ratio. Also, it makes the corner of the player rounded. (default value)
  • PlayerMode.FULL_BLEED_MODE: This state causes the player surface to fill the mobile screen without rounding the corner of the screen, Also while the source video maintains the 9:16 aspect ratio, the visible player fills the screen of the device, thus causing a minimal part of the video cut off in the edges.
Player Mode needs to be configured along with FwVideoFeedView
<com.firework.videofeed.FwVideoFeedView
android:id="@+id/videoFeedView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:fw_playerMode="fit_mode"
/>
Alternatively, this can be set as below in the class where ViewOptions are set for the FwideoFeedView
Kotlin
Java
val playerOption = PlayerOption.Builder()
.playerMode(PlayerMode.FIT_MODE) // Set the player mode
.build()
val viewOptions = ViewOptions.Builder()
.playerOption(playerOption)
.build()
val videoFeedView = findViewById<FwVideoFeedView>(R.id.videoFeedView)
videoFeedView.init(viewOptions)
PlayerOption playerOptions = new PlayerOption.Builder()
.playerMode(PlayerMode.FIT_MODE)
.build();
ViewOptions viewOptions = new ViewOptions.Builder()
.playerOption(playerOptions)
.build();
// init video feed view with view options
videoFeedView.init(viewOptions);

Custom CTA button UI

Override FwCtaButtonViewStyle to modify the appearance of the CTA button:
  • CTA button background color
  • CTA button text color
  • CTA button typeface (Font)
Use android:backgroundTint, android:textColor and android:fontFamily attributes to modify the appearance of the CTA button
<resources>
<style name="FwCtaButtonViewStyle">
<item name="android:backgroundTint">@color/customBackgroundColor</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@android:color/customTextColor</item>
<item name="android:fontFamily">@font/customFont</item>
</style>
</resources>
To override the CTA button shape properties (rounded corners radius for example) declare a separate style and apply it to shapeAppearanceOverlay style attribute:
<resources>
<style name="FwCtaButtonViewStyle">
<item name="shapeAppearanceOverlay">@style/MyCustomCtaButtonShapeStyle</item>
</style>
<style name="MyCustomCtaButtonShapeStyle">
<item name="cornerFamily">rounded</item> <!-- possible values "rounded" and "cut" -->
<item name="cornerSizeTopLeft">6dp</item>
<item name="cornerSizeBottomLeft">6dp</item>
<item name="cornerSizeBottomRight">6dp</item>
<item name="cornerSizeTopRight">6dp</item>
</style>
</resources>
