This is my code on recyclerview scroll working fine on scroll but I want to autoplay my first video in recyclerview without scrolling.

Just add this line after setAdapter to the recycler view.
recyclerView.smoothScrollBy(0, -1);
OR
recyclerView.smoothScrollBy(0, 1);
This will solve your problem.

You only need to make the first video play using postDelayed().
I think the reason is that the views of the RecyclerView items are all drawn on the layout and the video play process are duplicated.

How to take screenshot of activity with camera feed in it?

I'm currently developing an android application which detect objects using camera using tensorflow detection API. I want to take screenshot of the camera activity where the detection is happening.
How can I take screenshot of the camera activity including the camera preview itself?
This code came from tensorflow demo application. I just want to add a screenshot functionality using a button. That's why I added a button and an Image View. The Image View is where the screenshot preview will show but I dont have any idea on how to implement this :(
This is the code for the camera activity:

How to display a watermark on the camera preview

I'm making a motion detector app on top of this project. I would like to display a watermark image on the camera preview.
I tried this method, but it didn't work for me. Please explain in code, how to show the watermark without having any issue for the motion detection part.

main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SurfaceView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/preview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
</SurfaceView>

A workaround option is to overlay the Activity XML file with another XML file which contains the watermark image. To do so:
Create a new Layout file inside the layout folder. For eg:
overlay.xml
Insert an ImageView inside it, something like:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/android" />
</RelativeLayout>
Then inside the Activity java file, ie MotionDetector.java file ,
create a new method addView() :
private void addView()
{
controlInflater = LayoutInflater.from(getBaseContext());
View viewControl = controlInflater.inflate(R.layout.overlay, null);
LayoutParams layoutParamsControl = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
this.addContentView(viewControl, layoutParamsControl);
}
4) Finally invoke the addView() method from onCreate() to add the image:
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
preview = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.preview);
previewHolder = preview.getHolder();
previewHolder.addCallback(surfaceCallback);
previewHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_PUSH_BUFFERS);
addView();
Then end result would be an image overlay above the SurfaceView. Subject to the quality of the watermark image, the rendered quality of the watermark shall seem original. Hope it helps.

How to make an android camera preview stay focused?

I am quite new to Android, thus the code is not from me since I use it only to learn.
The application I want to make has to show a camera preview. I have the preview of the camera on the surface, but it's not focused. As a work-around I made a runnable that calls auto-focus every 750ms.
I would like to know how I can make this better since whenever I call auto-focus the preview will blur until it's focused again.
Thank you for any help.

Try adding
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.autofocus" />
in your manifest.
