How to play mediaPlayer in Android after pressing the home button and when phone is receive and then resume the video that point?

Can you tell me how to play mediaPlayer in Android when I press the home button of emulator or phone? I want it so that when it receives a phone call to stop the video and be able to resume video again that point. How should I do this in this code?

import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.MediaController;
import android.widget.VideoView;

public class VideoActivity2 extends Activity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);  
setContentView(R.layout.activity_video2);

VideoView videoView = (VideoView)this.findViewById(R.id.videoView2);
videoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse("android.resource://"+
getPackageName() +"/"R.raw.song1));
videoView.setMediaController(new MediaController(this));
videoView.requestFocus();
videoView.start();
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.video_activity2, menu);
return true;
}

public void startVideoActivity3(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(VideoActivity2.this, VideoActivity3.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
public void startVideoActivity(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(VideoActivity2.this, VideoActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
public void startMainActivity(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(VideoActivity2.this,    

MainActivity.class);intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
intent.putExtra("EXIT", true);
if (getIntent().getBooleanExtra("EXIT", false)) {
 finish();
}
startActivity(intent);
}

}

Adding to cyanide's answer, I found the videoView.pause() to not always capture the position of the video - resulting in a black videoView onResume. By adding the videoStopPosition variable this issue is avoided.

//Allows video to resume from same location as the pause
private static int videoStopPosition = 0;

@Override
public void onPause() {
   super.onPause();
   VideoView videoView = (VideoView)findViewById(R.id.videoView2);
   videoStopPosition = videoView.getCurrentPosition();
   videoView.pause();
}

@Override
public void onResume() {
   super.onResume();
   VideoView videoView = (VideoView)findViewById(R.id.videoView2);
   videoView.seekTo(videoStopPosition);
   videoView.resume();
}

I never use VideoView class, but according to documentation, this should work:

@Override
public void onPause() {
   super.onPause();
    VideoView videoView = (VideoView)findViewById(R.id.videoView2);
    videoView.pause();
}

@Override
public void onResume() {
   super.onResume();
   VideoView videoView = (VideoView)findViewById(R.id.videoView2);
   videoView.resume();
}
