The problem is that your video path is on your host machine. You have
to remember that the emulator is actually emulating an ARM processor
run its own Linux kernel. The file system is not your host computer,
but a virtual file system within the Linux kernel emulation.
Use mksdcard to create an SD card virtual file system (there are
options to specify the size):
mksdcard sdcard.img
Start the emulator and tell it to use your SD card image:
emulator -sdcard sdcard.img
Copy the file from your host computer to the virtual SD card image:
adb push D:/Profiles/mgia0013/MyDocuments/Android/Movies/HomeAlone.
3gp /sdcard
Now change the path in your setVideoPath:
video.setVideoPath("/sdcard/HomeAlone.3gp");
