Answer 1

I'm not sure that is the problem but what worked for me is calling mVideoView.start(); inside the mVideoView.setOnPreparedListener event callback.

For example:

Uri uriVideo = Uri.parse();

MediaController mediaController = new MediaController(mContext);
mediaController.setAnchorView(mVideoView);
mVideoView.setMediaController(mediaController);
mVideoView.setVideoURI(uriVideo);
mVideoView.requestFocus();

mVideoView.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener()
{
     @Override
     public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp)
     {
          mVideoViewPeekItem.start();
     }
});
