I have recompiled Informatix's Google Play Games Services library with the latest version (v9.2.0) of Google Play Services. This makes it compatible with Erel's FireBaseAdMob library, so the two can be used in the same project together. I have attached the recompiled library to this post, however it is functionally exactly the same as when Informatix released it, so if you need support you should go to this thread.

The only difference is that now you don't need to have a copy of google-play-services in your additional libs directory, as the wrapper will pick up the required imports from Google Play Services installed with ADB Manager. You will need to make sure you have downloaded the latest Google Play Services with ADB Manager.

I updated all Material Design tutorials. The examples now use B4A6+ and AppCompat v3.20.

I have uploaded an example to show how to use a VideoView optimized for orientation-change ensuring that:

1) video will not stop after orientation-change but will continue playing smoothly
2) video will resize to full screen in landscape and scale in the center in portrait-mode..

AppUpdating version 1.30

You won't believe it, but finally I managed to update my lib!
It took more to read through all its posts than to update the code..

The only relevant feature is the use of okHttp (1.01) and okHttpUtils2 (2.20) libraries, a much needed upgrade ideed. Sorry for the too long delay.

ProBundle

In this version 1.10, I added the PDFium library and the OverlayButton.Initialize2 function to OverlayWindow.

PDFium:
It is a fast PDF renderer, written in C, working with any Android version >= 2.3 (Gingerbread). It can open protected PDF (with the password), get the metadata, get the table of contents, get the text of each page, search through the whole document and render the annotations. It includes a navigator.

You can download the APK of the PDFium demo here:

B4ATextureVideoView

This is a VideoView based on a TextureView instead of a SurfaceView (the standard VideoView in the Audio-library uses a SurfaceView).
This key difference allows a texture view to be moved, transformed, animated, etc. You can even take screenshots.
