Have a look at the answer of this question. You can get the video uri from the GData API and then start any media player.

I have video uploaded on server. which is trailer of movie. I can play this video direct to my videoView with the help of live url. My question: is there any method in android which help me out to get a video frame from url without download the video to local storage. I know one method name "createvideothumbnail" but it will not work in my case. because i need to get the video thumbnail without download the whole video. as you have seen the mechanism is implemented in imdb official app (Trailer section).
Please help, thanks in advance
Getting thumbnails without download the complete video is not possible until now (API Level 22) i´m pretty sure that the application that you describe load thumbnails that were created previously.
the current option would be using the class:
import android.provider.MediaStore.Video.Thumbnails;
or create the thumbnails in a separated process.
I want to create an application to play/stream videos, I know how to play/stream videos when I have the link but can somebody tell me how can I play this video e.g http://gorillavid.in/orophd79hi8o using VideoView or other method?? Thanks
Why not use a WebView for the job? They do it just fine.
Just remember to enable plugins:
webView.getSettings().setPluginState(WebSettings.PluginState.ON)
I am developing an application in which I have a list of videos to be downloaded from the URLs. Each video is of about 10 min duration. Now, what I want is that the video is downloaded progressively in background and similarly displaying the downloaded video as like in Youtube.
I have tried using VideoView but it cant succeed.
So is it possible to do such with help of android's VideoView?
Thanks in advance.

I want to play a remote video in a Videoview. Anybody knows a good free server to load my videos in it to later stream in a videoview? Is possible to see in a videoview Youtube videos? I have see another questions but I don´t understand. Anybody can put a example to play a Youtube video or remote video for another server in a videoview?
Thank you
You can check android-youtube-player, a project to make YouTube videos play in a VideoView. The usage instructions and sample Activity code is available.
You can definitely stream video directly into a VideoView without a problem, and you set it up normally as well:
Uri pathtoVideo = Uri.parse(path);
videoView.setVideoURI(pathToVideo);
However, there are a lot of videos on Youtube that aren't mobile-friendly, and will end up throwing a "This Video Cannot Be Played" error.
The MediaPlayer on Android can only play "progressive streamable contents" which basically means: 1. the movie atom has to precede all the media data atoms. 2. The clip has to be reasonably interleaved. If it doesn't, you'll get the error I mentioned above.
Have you considered the YouTube API for android? I recently posted a tutorial on how to use the video and thumbnail views from the API here
I want to access Youtube videos and display the thumbnail of the video along with its title in a ListView. On clicking of the thumbnail, the video should be played. Can anyone suggest some sample program related to my need or link.
