[android-developers] Re: Where have all the Google employees gone?

Not that I know of.  All of those threads should be in the foreground.

Dianne is there any chance that such threading changes would affect
the playback of media in a VideoView?  I've noticed that since 1.6,
when I'm on a low-bandwidth connection (e.g., EDGE) videos being
loaded over HTTP start playing, but then pause until the file is
pretty much completely downloaded, at which point playback continues.
Code is pretty straightforward:

  mVideoView.setVideoURI(pResult);
  final MediaController lMediaController = new MediaController
(IntroVideoActivity.this);
  mVideoView.setMediaController(lMediaController);
  lMediaController.show(0);
  mVideoView.setKeepScreenOn(true);
  mVideoView.requestFocus();
  mVideoView.start();
