Android App with Animations
Posted: Fri May 25, 2012 2:27 pm
I hope someone out there can help. I am have a desktop app I would like to include on the android tablet platform. I have a main screen and animations that play off to the left side of this screen. But I can not get the animations to show once I test on the android. I have gone through all the info online I could find and still not luck. All I get is a gray square where the animation should be.
1) I converted all external paths to "video/animation.xxx" where "video" is the sub directory located in the same folder as app.
2) Tried multiple formats .mov , .avi , and ,mp4 - so I am guessing the format is not the issue
so my question is this
1) First, is there one video format I should be using for the Android version
2) Is the path method I am using correct
3) Is embedding the animations a better way to go
Any suggestions?
thank you
Chris
