What are the ways to play .mov video formats in android application? Unfortunately, android does not support .mov video formats.
You can use the ExoPlayer component.
It's not an android component, but a Google third party component, so you could depend on them, will be stable.
I have used to play that kind of videos without problem
https://google.github.io/ExoPlayer
Hope it's helps
I did google about this question and I found 4 possible ways to do it:
play the video with the following manner:
startActivity(newIntent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse(uri)));
Get the RTSP link and play the video with VideoView
play the video using Flash
Using HTML5 iframe
I have an android 4.0 device and I am able to play YouTube videos using the first three methods. My question is: which method is the most adaptable to different version. If the answer is using HTML5, how can I do it. Thank you very much for your time.
The most allround way of doing it to open it with a URI parse. There is also a way of forcing the YouTube app to be called(sorry I think I read it someplace but I do not remember how) and show the video there. This means you do not get the option to chose to open the video in the browser.
The rest of the alternatives are only supported by some devices. (Flash is outdated, HTML5 is not supported on most devices). I you are going to do something else then using the buildt-in YouTube app I would recomend RTSP as the best option.
In my android application I want to play youtube video in App, not in the default browser. I am trying this for the last some days. Previously I played the youtube video using the following code :
http://code.google.com/p/android-youtube-player/downloads/list
But now this code is not working. It shows "Sorry, this video cannot be played." I have tried all the possible solution mentioned in the different forum for this error. But could not be able to play the video.
That's why I am trying to find out another way to play the video in app. I have tried the RTSP link of a youtube video , it is playing the 3gp video file, but video quality is very poor. This is not acceptable.
I am really fade up to find out good solution to play youtube video in app.
Please help. Any good suggestion is always welcome.

Playing YouTube videos in Android was made very simple with the release of this library: https://developers.google.com/youtube/android/player/. The Developer Guide on that page is a good resource on how to use this library. They also provide sample code on how to use the functionality provided by the library. The steps are basically:
Get a developer key
Download the library and include it in your project
Use the library to play videos (hint. use the YouTubePlayerView as a first step)
Please post again if you have any questions or need any code examples.

I tryed with a lot of tutorials from google, from stackoverflow, from android developers groups, etc.., but i can't make working any of them. For example, now i'm trying with the VideoViewDemo from android developers: http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/media/VideoViewDemo.html But i can't make working the code, i dont know what is the problem, i just cant play mp4 videos with that code. And also i can't with all the code examples i find on internet.
I have a video on my ASSETS folder, and i just need to play the video, only this. I can not believe that doesn't exists a simple and quick way to do it.
