Play video inside OpenGL ES by using MediaCodec

In Android 4.1 (API 16) and above, MediaCodec is introduced by Android. By using MediaCodec, we can easily decode video without using Android NDK, like creating video playback application, etc. In game development, video is also needed to make the game environment more realistics, like when you are playing a racing game with video banner around the track. In here, I'll introduce of how to decode the video and render it into OpenGL ES. Firstly, we prepare some stuffs to decode the video, like MediaExtractor and MediaCodec. private boolean initExtractor() { extractor = new MediaExtractor(); try { extractor.setDataSource(mFilePath); } catch (IOException e) { return false; } // get video track for (int i = 0; i < extractor.getTrackCount(); i++) { MediaFormat format = extractor.getTrackFormat(i); String mime = format.getString(MediaFormat.KEY_MIME); if (mime.startsWith("video/")) {

[iOS] Custom back button with back gesture

Image
When I want to change the default iOS back button, I need to hide the default back button. This causes the back gesture is also disabled. Therefore, I need to keep the back gesture and make the change. To make these happen, I do steps: Disable the default back button Set the new back button to left bar item Enable the navigation interaction gesture for back gesture Here is the codes (Swift 5) class MyViewController: UIGestureRecognizerDelegate { self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = true let image = UIImage(systemName: "chevron.backward") let backBarItem = UIBarButtonItem(image: image, style: .plain, target: nil, action: nil) self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = backBarItem self.navigationController?.interactivePopGestureRecognizer?.delegate = self func gestureRecognizer(_ gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer, shouldBeRequiredToFailBy otherGestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer) -> Bool { return true } }
