@rajam1215 You can hide the previous and next buttons with setPreviousButtonRemoved and setNextButtonRemoved if you are using the default VideoControls provided

e.g.

(videoView.videoControls as? DefaultControls)?.let { controls ->
    controls.setPreviousButtonRemoved(true)
    controls.setNextButtonRemoved(true)
}

@EugeneAsti Similar to the above previous & next button functions, there are functions for setRewindButtonRemoved and setFastForwardButtonRemoved functions; however if you are using the default VideoControls then these won't actually have any affect (they no-op on mobile and tv layouts now).

So you will need to provide your own layout and implementation for the VideoControls which you can provide with a VideoControlsProvider that's passed in via the videoControlsProvider attribute.

If you have more questions around the VideoControlsProvider please open a new issue

@brianwernick in java it is look like this, Is it Ok?

DefaultVideoControls controls =
     (DefaultVideoControls) dataBinding.videoView.getVideoControls();
   if (controls != null) {
    controls.setPreviousButtonRemoved(true);
    controls.setNextButtonRemoved(true);
 }

But with my above code setPreviousButtonRemoved and setNextButtonRemoved not working, Buttons not hide can you elaborate this once

But this functions are working fine

DefaultVideoControls controls =
    (DefaultVideoControls) dataBinding.videoView.getVideoControls();
    if (controls != null) {
        controls.setPreviousButtonEnabled(false);
        controls.setNextButtonEnabled(false);
    }

Ah, I see. There's a bug that was likely introduced when we re-wrote the controls for 5.0 where the "remove" request isn't retained through media load states. Specifically the visibility updates in onLoadEnded will always set the next/previous buttons as visible.

@brianwernick when new version will live 5.2.0, so I will get new changes in my code

[brianwernick]

There are a few other things that I'm going to look into updating/fixing; but I'm tentatively planning on releasing the update later this week

[rajam1215]
