I searched for this on google then i found this is related to format of video. Some one suggest ffmpeg and mencoder etc but all these things related to command line.

I want to know that is there any way to write code to encode that video so android default player can play it successfully.

If necessary then i can upload that video.

Please suggest me what should i do for this.

Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Hey resolved my problem myself. This is related to format of my video which is H.264.

I just download jar file from this http://vov.io/vitamio/ link.

Add this jar file into my libraries of my application and use VideoView of this library in place of existing one.

Now its working fine.

Thanks alot who tried to help me.
