Answer 1

you can simply use youtube rtsp link in videoview as:

    String myurl="rtsp://v4.cache4.c.youtube.com/CjYLENy73wIaLQk_ezfHQ9mvqRMYDSANFEIJbXYtZ29vZ2xlSARSBXdhdGNoYN-__7O28NSPUAw=/0/0/0/video.3gp";     

        Uri video = Uri.parse(myurl);
        mVideoView = new VideoView(this);           
        mVideoView.setVideoURI(video);
        myMediaController = new MediaController(this);

it works simply for me.
