Video file format not recognized in Android studio

I tried to add a video file in a raw folder that I created in the resource folder, but when I copy and paste the video file in the raw folder, it is not recognized by Android Studio.

Scrrenshot of the issue
I tried it with other video files, but the same thing still happened. I saw similar questions dating from last year and previous years on here, I tried all their solutions, but none of them worked.
Please, what should I do to make Android Studio recognize the file as a video file?
Any help will be appreciated.
The file cannot be played in Android Studio,
Because it does not contain multimedia player.
Go to the file path and run it externally.

Android Studio/Intellii: Location of project configuration file

I've marked certain directories & files as excluded in Android studio. I'm looking for the file where intellij/Android Studio keeps track of those configurations.
It used to be inside the .iml file however I don't see that file in my project or new projects anymore. I couldn't find this info in files under .idea directory either.
Does someone know where can I find this configuration file?
This information is stored in .uml file of the module. See

What file do I import into Android Studio so that I can look at the code?

I got an app created and the developer gave me the zip and apk files. I want to look at the code so I downloaded Android Studio but I don't know how to get the code to import so I can read the code. I have the zip files and apk file to the app but I have no idea what file I am supposed to import into Andriod Studio so I can look at the app's code.
I have read Android Developer's blog and searched on Youtube How to import existing projects into Android Studio but all the videos I have viewed are only showing out to update the girdle and not how to open the file to see the code.
APK is the built, packaged, usually obfuscated and digitally signed distribution of your app, so it is for your clients and not quite an easy task to consume from a source point of view.
So assuming that the app's source is in the ZIP file, if you extract it to folder your should be able to open that folder with Android Studio IDE. On the start screen you can choose Open an existing Android Studio package and once it is open you can navigate the source in the Project pane.
This article describes what files are expected in a typical Android Studio project: https://developer.android.com/studio/projects/#ProjectFiles - in a nutshell:
java folder - Contains the Java/Kotlin source code files (with .java or .kt extensions), separated by package names - usually in subdirectories - , including JUnit test code.
res folder Contains all non-code resources, such as XML layouts, UI strings, and bitmap images, divided into corresponding sub-directories. For more information about all possible resource types, see Providing Resources under the documentation above.

How to know database file path after publishing project in visual studio?

I published my project in visual studio by right-click on my project and click publish, the problem is the database file path is changed and i can't find it, i need the path to put it in connection string
can any one help me, please.
Visual Studio will publish an application to a folder where you've told it to; by default it's [project directory]\publish\. The files for a particular publish will be in [publish directory]\Application Files\[revision number]\ by default.
You can check the path by right-clicking on a project in the solution in Visual Studio, selecting Properties and then the Publish tab. If the path is relative, it's in the project directory.
In the Application Files folder, you will find a bunch of files with .deploy extensions; if you've put your configuration in app.config, you should be able to edit it by opening the file [Project name].exe.config.deploy in a text editor.
It's an XML file and you should be able to identify the part you need to change. It will typically look like
<setting name="SettingName" serializeAs="String">
<value>some setting value</value>
</setting>
Installing the application with the created setup file, assuming that the hand-changed revision is the newest one in the Application Files folder, should install it with the new connection string.
I still urge you to consider just changing the app.config file within the project and doing a publish again, this is the way you should be doing it.
