If still any existing problem is there, then you can use vlc media player plugin inside your application or you can call through intent if once the vlc media player is installed in your android phone

Intent i = new Intent("org.videolan.vlc.VLCApplication.gui.video.VideoPlayerActivity"); i.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); i.setData(Uri.parse("rtsp://10.0.0.179:8086/")); startActivity(i);

Android already supports many video codecs (such as H264) and a variety of streaming mechanisms (such as RTSP and plain HTTP).

The simplest streaming setup would involve using any off-the-shelf encoder/server to produce such a stream (such as H264 over RTSP) on a PC, and then point the Android web browser to that address, which will launch the built-in media player to play the stream.

This wouldn't even require you to write a single line of code!
