VideoView is just a convenience for manipulating a ViewHolder and a MediaPlayer. It's educational to find it's source and study it a bit.
MediaPlayer is just a kind of remote control for the native media components deep inside android (e.g. stagefright). The problems you're seeing are likely not a problem with VideoView or MediaPlayer, but the stuff deep inside Android, or maybe even the particular device you're working with.
