Answer 1

Use Like this:

Uri uri = Uri.parse(URL); //Declare your url here.

VideoView mVideoView  = (VideoView)findViewById(R.id.videoview)
mVideoView.setMediaController(new MediaController(this));       
mVideoView.setVideoURI(uri);
mVideoView.requestFocus();
mVideoView.start();

Another Method:

  String LINK = "type_here_the_link";
  VideoView mVideoView  = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.videoview);
  MediaController mc = new MediaController(this);
  mc.setAnchorView(videoView);
  mc.setMediaPlayer(videoView);
  Uri video = Uri.parse(LINK);
  mVideoView.setMediaController(mc);
  mVideoView.setVideoURI(video);
  mVideoView.start();
