How to Stream Video from Http or RTSP Url in android

I want to play a video from Http and Rtsp on android. currently i am trying with http link But when my activity starts, it just starts playing audio with blank black screen. No video is displaying. Here i have posted my code below. Thanks for any help in advance. and if anyone can provide a fresh running rtsp link for live streaming, i'll be very thankful.

    VideoView vidView = (VideoView)findViewById(R.id.myVideo);

    Uri stream = Uri.parse("http://www.androidbegin.com/tutorial/AndroidCommercial.3gp");

    vidView.setVideoURI(stream);

    MediaController vidControl = new MediaController(this);
    vidControl.setAnchorView(vidView);
    vidView.setMediaController(vidControl);
    vidView.requestFocus();
    vidView.start();

If the VideoView does not work with your stream then you need to do it with ffmpeg
