i find the answer

    mWebview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.mwebview);
    mWebview.setInitialScale(1);
    mWebview.getSettings().setPluginState(WebSettings.PluginState.ON);

    mWebview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()
    {
        @Override
        public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
        {
            view.loadUrl(url);
            return true;
        }
    });


    WebSettings webSettings = mWebview.getSettings();
    webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    webSettings.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
    webSettings.setAllowContentAccess(true);
    webSettings.setEnableSmoothTransition(true);
    webSettings.setLoadsImagesAutomatically(true);
    webSettings.setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
    webSettings.setSupportZoom(false);
    webSettings.setUseWideViewPort(true);
    webSettings.setAppCacheEnabled(true);
    webSettings.setSupportMultipleWindows(true);
    mWebview.loadUrl("http://www.youtube.com/embed/" + video.youtube_id);
