title: MediaController Positioning - bind to VideoView
body: <p>There have been a lot of discussions about how to position a <code>MediaController</code> and most answers are to use the <code>setAnchorView</code>-Method. At the first glance this solution seems to work but in my case it doesn't.</p>
  
  <p>According to this <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/11084692/1717588">Post</a> <code>setAnchorView</code> only acts as a reference for initial positioning of the <code>MediaController</code>, but actually creates a new floating <code>Window</code> on top. </p>
  
  <p>So what I want is a <code>MediaController</code> that is <strong>really</strong> bound to a parent <code>View</code> (e.g. VideoView). </p>
  
  <p>For example if you have a <code>LinearLayout</code> within a <code>ScrollView</code> and you have to scroll down to your <code>VideoView</code> where the <code>MediaController</code> is attached to, the <code>MediaController</code> should really be attached to this <code>VideoView</code> so that the <code>MediaController</code> scrolls along with the <code>VideoView</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Another Use-Case where this problem accurs is discussed <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22564658/mediacontroller-not-swiping-in-viewpager">here</a>, where the <code>MediaController</code> is used within a <code>ViewPager</code>.</p>
  
  <p>So how to achieve such a behavior for a <code>MediaController</code>?</p>
