mediacontroller

I am using a VideoView and the MediaController for an app I am working on. I simply wanted to have the MediaController appear on top of my VideoView but apparently you can't do that very easily. I attempted to use the setAnchorView method to my VideoView id, but that didn't work. No matter what I do, the MediaController is always at the bottom of my screen.

Is there a known way of doing this? Thanks I had the same problem on a recent project and ended up creating a custom implementation based on the stock MediaController.

I am creating a music player application. I want to show the media controller on notification bar while my application is running in background. It looks like Google player. How to do this?
