Black screen when playing video on Android 4.4 (API 19) kitkat

Im only getting a black screen when playing video on Android 4.4 (API 19). Not sure what is happening. Works fine on Android 9 (API 28)

Im using Android studio with the mediaplayer library. But im having the same issue using react-native-video with react-native.

I need to install and run this on an older Android version Android 4.4 (API 19) kitkat.

I read this https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/media-formats so I changed the profile in my encoding from H.264 AVC Main Profile to H.264 AVC Baseline Profile (BP). But no difference.

Im testing on emulator via android studio. I have got no device with that os. Android 4.4 Version.api: 19 (Google API) and resolution 1920 x 1080
