How to stop audio playback in WebView?

Question

Android

The problem is this, I load the video into a WebView, and minimize it (or close it, or switch to another activity), and the sound continues to play. In onStop() I call webView.stopLoading(), but the part of the video that had time to load produces sound. Tried calling webView.onDestroy() but doesn't help. Loading a blank page in onStop()/onPause() doesn't work either, since I'm restoring the previous state of the webView (webView.restoreState()).

Answer 1

try to remove the WebView from the activity (layout.remove(webview)),
or even better, move the playback from WebView to VideoView
HTML5 version of the player on androids is not very stable.
