Problem with back button in VideoView

Question

I am having difficulty getting the back button to actually finish my activity when pressed. I am running a very simple videoview, using a progressdialog to show loading dial

You can simply write: (No need to create new class for MediaController)

mVideoView.setMediaController(new MediaController(this){
        public boolean dispatchKeyEvent(KeyEvent event)
        {
            if (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_UP)
                ((Activity) getContext()).finish();

            return super.dispatchKeyEvent(event);
        }
    });
