Answer 1

Try this. It worked for me.

void playvideo(String url) 
{
    String  link=url;
    Log.e("url",link);
    view1 = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.myVideoView); 
    getWindow().setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);
    MediaController mc = new MediaController(this); 
    mc.setMediaPlayer(view1); 
    view1.setMediaController(mc); 
    view1.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(link)); 
    view1.requestFocus(); 
    view1.start();
}
