Answer 1

To play the songs from above playlists, I m calling the function

PlaySongsFromAPlaylist( PlayListID ); // 0 < PlayListID < count

from the above onCreate method. And remaining code is as per mentioned below.

public void PlaySongsFromAPlaylist(int playListID){

    String[] ARG_STRING = {MediaStore.Audio.Media._ID,MediaStore.Audio.Media.DATA,MediaStore.Audio.Media.DISPLAY_NAME,MediaStore.Video.Media.SIZE,android.provider.MediaStore.MediaColumns.DATA};
    Uri membersUri = MediaStore.Audio.Playlists.Members.getContentUri("external", playListID);
    Cursor songsWithingAPlayList = mThis.managedQuery(membersUri, ARG_STRING, null, null, null);
    int theSongIDIwantToPlay = 0; // PLAYING FROM THE FIRST SONG
    if(songsWithingAPlayList != null)
    {
        songsWithingAPlayList.moveToPosition(theSongIDIwantToPlay);
        String DataStream = songsWithingAPlayList.getString(4);
        PlayMusic(DataStream);
        songsWithingAPlayList.close();
    }   
}

 public static void PlayMusic(String DataStream){
    MediaPlayer mpObject = new MediaPlayer();
    if(DataStream == null)
        return;
    try {
        mpObject.setDataSource(DataStream);
        mpObject.prepare();
        mpObject.start();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
 }

Hope this will work. :)
