I added the videoview component to our design, where we play the video, which works fine. When we transition from the fragment holding the videoview or if i put videoview to INVISIBLE or gone then then just before the component is removed in the same place holder I see strange overlay blueish like just like you would turn off old tv :)

Something like when the component is being removed android draws some strange quirk before removing.

Anyone came across the same ? Is there a solution?

Update: the place holder while being removed actually shows the desktop of android with all the icons, like you can see trough our app?

BR,

SurfaceView (and VideoView as subclass) is placed behind the window by default. That makes it see trough

So you should call: videoView.setZOrderOnTop(true) if you want to place it on top (to make it non transparent).
