This is my code:

 public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

        private VideoView videoView;
        private int position = 0;
        private MediaController mediaController;


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


            videoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.videoView);

            // Set the media controller buttons
            if (mediaController == null) {
                mediaController = new MediaController(MainActivity.this);

                // Set the videoView that acts as the anchor for the MediaController.
                mediaController.setAnchorView(videoView);


                // Set MediaController for VideoView
                videoView.setMediaController(mediaController);
            }


            try {
                // ID of video file.

                String videoUrl="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHdmkP-nfsA";
                videoView.setVideoPath(videoUrl);


            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
                e.printStackTrace();
            }

            videoView.requestFocus();


            // When the video file ready for playback.
            videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() {

                public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mediaPlayer) {


                    videoView.seekTo(position);
                    if (position == 0) {
                        videoView.start();
                    }

                    // When video Screen change size.
                    mediaPlayer.setOnVideoSizeChangedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnVideoSizeChangedListener() {
                        @Override
                        public void onVideoSizeChanged(MediaPlayer mp, int width, int height) {

                            // Re-Set the videoView that acts as the anchor for the MediaController
                            mediaController.setAnchorView(videoView);
                        }
                    });
                }

I recommend using ExoPlayer instead of VideoView:

app gradle:

implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer:2.10.8'

layout xml:

<com.google.android.exoplayer2.ui.PlayerView
        android:id="@+id/video_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_centerInParent="true" />

java code:

PlayerView videoView = findViewById(R.id.video_view);
SimpleExoPlayer player = ExoPlayerFactory.newSimpleInstance(this);
videoView.setPlayer(player);
// Produces DataSource instances through which media data is loaded.
DataSource.Factory dataSourceFactory = new DefaultDataSourceFactory(this, Util.getUserAgent(this, "yourApplicationName"));
// This is the MediaSource representing the media to be played.
MediaSource videoSource = new ProgressiveMediaSource.Factory(dataSourceFactory).createMediaSource(Uri.parse(fileEntity.getPath()));
// Prepare the player with the source.
player.prepare(videoSource);
player.setPlayWhenReady(true);

You can not play a YouTube video directly to the VideoView or ExoPlayer, for that, first you have to download the video then set the locale path of that video to the method VideoView.setVideoPath("path")

If you want to play only YouTube videos then use YouTube Android Player API, and if you only want to play other remote videos (.mp4, .ogg, .3gp etc.) then use the method VideoView.setVideoURI("uri").

Example-

String videoUrl = "http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/BigBuckBunny.mp4";

try {
        // Start the MediaController
        MediaController mediacontroller = new MediaController(this);
        mediacontroller.setAnchorView(videoview);
        // Get the URL from String videoUrl
        Uri video = Uri.parse(videoUrl);
        videoview.setMediaController(mediacontroller);
        videoview.setVideoURI(video);

    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.e("Error", e.getMessage());
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

videoview.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() {
        public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
            videoview.start();
        }
    });

VideoView.setVideoPath requires a local path on the device. You should try setVideoURI instead if you want to play a remote MP4 or something else. VideoView Documentation

If you want to embed YouTube videos in your app, consider using the YouTube Android Player API or using something like a WebView

You are using VideoView which

Displays a video file. The VideoView class can load images from various sources (such as resources or content providers).

You might want to try setVideoURI

Or : ExoPlayer if min SDK > 16

Or use SurfaceView :

SurfaceView surfaceView = (SurfaceView)findViewById(R.id.surfaceView);
SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder = surfaceView.getHolder();
surfaceHolder.addCallback(new SurfaceHolder.Callback() {

@Override
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder surfaceHolder) {
           mediaPlayer.setDataSource(STREAM_URL);
           mediaPlayer.setDisplay(surfaceHolder);
           mediaPlayer.start();
}
