Displaying Video in listview From Json File

Question

I am working with JSON. I want to display the video link and its image and its description from Json file in custom listview and when this Video link is clicked it should play a video. [the videos are stored in Server and its link are given in JSON file].

I am able to get the image and description from JSON file but got stuck in Getting Video link. Can you please help me out in this. I searched a lot on this on Google but failed to get information on videos to get from JSON file. but there are lot of examples on getting video's from YouTube.

Should we write any extra code to get video from jSON As we write image loader to get images! If so Can anybody share what i can do and how to display and play.

Thanks a lot in advance.

My SingleItem view:

 public class SingleItemView extends Activity{
     // Declare Variables

   ImageLoader imageLoader = new ImageLoader(this);

   @Override
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      // Capture position and set results to the ImageView
       // Passes  images URL into ImageLoader.class
       imageLoader.DisplayImage(imageLocation, imgflag);

}

}

My Base adapter:

     // Capture ListView item click
     itemView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

     @Override
    public void onClick(View arg0) {
     // Get the position
    resultp = data.get(position);
  Intent intent = new Intent(context, SingleItemView.class);


 // Start SingleItemView Class
 context.startActivity(intent);

    }
 });
  return itemView;

You are parse your data in JSON format so obviously you have store your all data in HashMap Arraylist with particular key for your Video url.

Now, what can do, If you need to open Video on Item Click of ListView then you can retrieve your video url in String like

String  myUrl = urHashMaparraylist.get(position).get("videolocation");

Now pass this myUrl to next Activity and just set this String as a

Uri video = Uri.parse(myUrl);
videoView.setVideoURI(video);

EDIT:

   listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                int position, long id) {

            String  myUrl = urHashMaparraylist.get(position).get("videolocation");
            Intent n = new Intent(YourActivityName.this , NewActivityName.class);
            n.putExtra("videolocation",myUrl);
            startActivity(n);

        }

    });

Now in your next Activity retrieve it as a

  Intent n = getIntent();
  String url = n.getStringExtra("videolocation");

Now you can set this string to your VideoView as a

  Uri video = Uri.parse(myUrl);
  videoView.setVideoURI(video);
