when I play a video with video, it presents black bands in the top and bottom part of the video, like in image in the URL https://i.stack.imgur.com/7CTbl.jpg. I'd like to remove the bands and display just the video in an absolute layout. how can I reach my goal?

UPDATE I update at latest pre-release as @mtz suggested me, and I modified my code in the following way:
public partial class WebcamVideoPopUpPage : PopupPage
{
public WebcamVideoPopUpPage()
{
var vm = App.Locator.WebCamVideoVM;
this.BindingContext = vm;
InitializeComponent();
MediaPlayerWebcam.VideoView.MediaPlayerChanged += VideoView_MediaPlayerChanged;
MediaPlayerWebcam.MediaPlayer.AspectRatio = "FitScreen";
}
protected override void OnAppearing()
{
base.OnAppearing();
Messenger.Default.Send(new OnApperingVideoMessage());
}
private void VideoView_MediaPlayerChanged(object sender, LibVLCSharp.Shared.MediaPlayerChangedEventArgs e)
{
Messenger.Default.Send(new OnVideoViewInitializedMessage());
}
protected override void OnDisappearing()
{
base.OnDisappearing();
MediaPlayerWebcam.MediaPlayer.Stop();
MediaPlayerWebcam.MediaPlayer = null;
}
}
My xaml:
<AbsoluteLayout x:Name="AbsoluteLayoutWebcam"
HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand">
<shared:MediaPlayerElement x:Name="MediaPlayerWebcam"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="All"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="0, 0, 1, .4"
MediaPlayer ="{Binding MediaPlayer}"/>
<Label x:Name="DescriptionWebcam"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="All"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="0, 0, 1, .2"
HorizontalOptions="Fill"
VerticalOptions="Fill"
Text="{Binding InfoWebcam}"
FontSize="Large"
TextColor="White"/>
</AbsoluteLayout>
My viewModel:
public class WebcamVideoViewModel : BaseViewModel
{
private LibVLC LibVLC { get; set; }
private bool IsLoaded { get; set; }
private bool IsVideoViewInitialized { get; set; }
private Media Media { get; set; }
private MediaPlayer _mediaPlayer;
public MediaPlayer MediaPlayer
{
get { return _mediaPlayer; }
set
{
_mediaPlayer = value;
OnPropertyChanged();
}
}
private string _InfoWebcam { get; set; }
public string InfoWebcam
{
get { return _InfoWebcam; }
set
{
_InfoWebcam = value;
OnPropertyChanged();
}
}
public WebcamVideoViewModel(INavigationService navigationService, IApiAutostradeManagerFactory apiAutostradeFactory) : base(navigationService, apiAutostradeFactory)
{
Messenger.Default.Register<InfoWebcamVideoMessage>(this, OnReceivedInfoWebcam);
Messenger.Default.Register<OnApperingVideoMessage>(this, OnAppearing);
Messenger.Default.Register<OnVideoViewInitializedMessage>(this, OnVideoViewInitialized);
Task.Run(Initialize);
}
private void Initialize()
{
Core.Initialize();
LibVLC = new LibVLC();
MediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(LibVLC);
}
private async void OnReceivedInfoWebcam(InfoWebcamVideoMessage msg)
{
var response = await ApiManager.GetVideoWebcam(msg.Mpr, msg.Uuid);
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
InfoWebcam = msg.T_Description_webcam;
var stream = await response.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync();
Media = new Media(LibVLC, stream);
Play();
}
}
public void OnAppearing(OnApperingVideoMessage msg)
{
IsLoaded = true;
}
public void OnVideoViewInitialized(OnVideoViewInitializedMessage msg)
{
IsVideoViewInitialized = true;
}
private void Play()
{
if (IsLoaded && IsVideoViewInitialized)
{
MediaPlayer.Play(Media);
}
}
}
Now i'm closer to solution because videoView is resizable with the button present at bootm, but I'd like to get at start the fill AspectRatio and I don't want anything expect the video(In other words, I'd want to remove seek bar and resize video button). Another problem is that after I close mediaPlayer, and I open again a new video, my app crashes. Any advice?
