mp.prepare();
mp.start();

prepare() is asynchronous, which means, it might not be finished when you already call the mp.start. What do you mean by 'surface not created'? Do you just mean the video doesn't play? Anyway, you should use an MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener and start the media in onPrepared().
