I have code for simple audio player on android. But it is not working for videos. Please guide me to write a simple video player. The code of audio player is
package com.example.helloplayer;
public class HelloPlayer extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.file);
mp.start();
}
}

For making a video player you will have to make use of video view. a sample is shown below
Layout file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<VideoView android:id="@+id/videoView"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
Here i am playing a video stored in "resource/raw" folder , "one" is the name of video file,you can replace it with name of your video file .also make sure that you are going to play an android supported video format
VideoplayerActivitvity
import android.app.Activity;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.MediaController;
import android.widget.Toast;
import android.widget.VideoView;
public class VideoplayerActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
VideoView videoView =(VideoView)findViewById(R.id.videoView);
MediaController mediaController= new MediaController(this);
mediaController.setAnchorView(videoView);
Uri uri=Uri.parse("android.resource://"+getPackageName()+"/"+R.raw.one);
videoView.setMediaController(mediaController);
videoView.setVideoURI(uri);
videoView.requestFocus();
videoView.start();
}
}
