Android — Can't play any videos (mp4/mov/3gp/etc.)?

Question

I\'m having great difficulty getting my Android application to play videos from the SD card. It doesn\'t matter what size, bitrate, video format, or any other setting I can

Answer 1

I was facing this problem until I figured out that the problem was in the directory of my video. I was saving my videos to a directory that is unreachable to the video view. So every time I try to play a video it gives me error message says: "Can’t open video" or something like that. Try and save your video to this directory which will be also visible in phone gallery.

String path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES) + "/" + "your app name ";
