WebView and HTML5 <video>

Question

I\'m piecing together a cheapo app that amongst other things \"frames\" some of our websites... Pretty simple with the WebViewClient. until I hit the video.

Answer 1

I had a similar problem. I had HTML files and videos in the assets-folder of my app.

Therefore the videos were located inside of the APK. Because the APK is really a ZIP-file, the WebView was not able to read the video-files.

Copying all HTML- and video-files onto the SD-Card worked for me.
