VideoView Listeners are not triggered in Android (Native Module) #48361

Description

I wrote a VideoPlayer in Java which uses Android's VideoView but the VideoView listeners like onPrepared, onError etc are not triggered at all.

I understand the following from the logs:

  • Uri was set successfully.
  • Request Focus was successful

There are no errors in the logs.

Steps to reproduce

  • npm i
  • npm run android

This will launch the VideoPlayer Component straight away.
