    play mp4 files within application

    Hey,

    I've created an application that loads a website using WebView.
    Everything works fine, except I'm unable to play any video files within the application. So, what I'm looking for help on is getting my application to launch the mediaplayer when clicking on a link with a .mp4 video. Any help and tips would be much appreciated!

    Thanks,
    -Kyle

    Not sure, but this may help.

    I think FLV would load much faster though. May want to convert it.

    I've gone over http://developer.android.com/resources/ ... index.html a bunch of times and have gotten them to work within my application..BUT they all call the activity when the app is first launched. I want it to launch the video player when a link is clicked..Any ideas?
