Dave, I tried to play via mediaplayer example given in the sdk with the YouTube video url (http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=l43Bbn2Xpwk),
In mediaplayer_video.java file, path="http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=l43Bbn2Xpwk"; it failed to play. Any modifications to be done in the mediaplayer to stream youtube video. But when i converted this youtube video into an mp4 or 3gp file and locally try to play, it plays fine. whats the difference between mediaplayer and videoview example given in the sdk.
