I’m making an application only to manage videos that are already inside the application inside the res/raw folder, but when I compile without calling the videos, it gives the errors:

Error: Identifier expected

and

Error: illegal start of type

    It is also important to inform which error logcat, so we will have a bigger direction to find the solution.

The problem is that the names of your files start with number.

How the Android SDK uses file names to create corresponding variables in the file R.java, if you use a name other than a valid Java identifier, the R.java does not compile. The same goes for images.

Try changing the names of the videos to, for example, video_1.mp4, video_2.mp4 etc..

  • That really was the mistake, thank you, it’s solved :D
