Ineed to play a short MP4 video on my android app I'm searching info about how to load mp4 videos but i can't find the way to do it on Android 1.5. My app sould be compatible from Android 1.5 to 4.0

I tryed with a lot of tutorials from google, from stackoverflow, from android developers groups, etc.., but i can't make working any of them. For example, now i'm trying with the VideoViewDemo from android developers: http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/media/VideoViewDemo.html But i can't make working the code, i dont know what is the problem, i just cant play mp4 videos with that code. And also i can't with all the code examples i find on internet.

I have a video on my ASSETS folder, and i just need to play the video, only this. I can not believe that doesn't exists a simple and quick way to do it.

If someone can give me a tutorial or a working example of playing mp4 videos on android i will apreciate it a lot.

Thanks
