The simple and easy way if you are using ConstraintLayout.

XML

then

In Kotlin:

videoView.setOnPreparedListener { mediaPlayer ->
    val videoRatio = mediaPlayer.videoWidth / mediaPlayer.videoHeight.toFloat()
    val screenRatio = videoView.width / videoView.height.toFloat()
    val scaleX = videoRatio / screenRatio
    if (scaleX >= 1f) {
        videoView.scaleX = scaleX
    } else {
        videoView.scaleY = 1f / scaleX
    }
}
