VideoView to match parent height and keep aspect ratio

Question

I have a VideoView which is set up like this:

Answer 1

I've tried a lot of solutions, while my video was always in 1000*1000 format, so I've created an easy solution for people who know their aspect ratio. First create a VideoView in a RelativeLayout like this:

Then before you load the video change the height and with programmatically like this:

    int i = videoView.getHeight() > videoView.getWidth() ? videoView.getHeight() : videoView.getWidth();
    video_holder.setLayoutParams(new ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams(i, i));

Of course this only works with 1:1 aspect ratio's but you could just use your aspect ratio to change either the height or the width.
