Media Player Error: Unknown(1) - 2147483648

What version of Streaming-Meda-Cordova-Plugin are you using? 1.0.2 What version of Cordova are you using? 6.3.0 What devices are affected? Android 4.2.2 Please describe the issue in detail, with relevant code samples simply calling the playVideo function, it returns the error in the subject:

Media Player Error: Unknown(1) - 2147483648

this is my function

playVideo: function() {
        // Where are we playing the video from?
        var videoURL = cordova.file.applicationDirectory + "www/videos/VuforiaSizzleReel_2.mp4";
        alert(videoURL);
        // Play a video with callbacks
        var options = {
          successCallback: function() {
            alert("Video was closed without error.");
          },
          errorCallback: function(errMsg) {
            alert("Error playing video: " + errMsg);
          },
          orientation: 'landscape'
        };
        window.plugins.streamingMedia.playVideo(videoURL, options);
    }

this function is called after deviceready event

the alert displays this path: file:///android_asset/www/videos/myvideo.mp4

the video is in H.264 format with AAC audio.

using another plugin (com.dawsonloudon.videoplayer) I’m able to play video, so I think it’s not a permission problem…

What did you expect to happen?

the video start to play

What actually happened?

I got the error: Media Player Error: Unknown(1) - 2147483648

PS: I tried your plugin becouse it support IOS too.

Thank you, elena.

Finally i found the issue According to Network security configuration (https://developer.android.com/training/articles/security-config#CleartextTrafficPermitted) in the latest android devices cleartext support is disabled by default. so the player cannot reach out to any video on the internet to solve this issue use this stackoverflow answer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54752716/why-am-i-seeing-neterr-cleartext-not-permitted-errors-after-upgrading-to-cordo

it works 100%
