I have been playing video in VideoView with following code. 

MediaController controller = new MediaController(this);
videoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(pathVideo));
        videoView.setMediaController(controller);
        controller.setMediaPlayer(vv);
        videoView.setOnPreparedListener((MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener) mContext);
        videoView.setOnCompletionListener((MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener) mContext);
        videoView.setOnErrorListener((MediaPlayer.OnErrorListener) mContext);
        videoView.start();

    Possible duplicate of [Media Player called in state 0, error (-38,0)](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9008770/media-player-called-in-state-0-error-38-0) – Tigger Dec 26 '17 at 09:29
  • I don't think so because when I play law resolution type of video like 320p,420p then it's play fine in video view using this code. – Bhargav Parmar Dec 26 '17 at 09:33
  • This error (-38,0) and Can't play video error show when I play HD videos like 720p and 1080p I have attached the sample video link to get an idea about video resolution Link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44rTTLjZZz4 – Bhargav Parmar Dec 26 '17 at 09:36
  • Have you tested the answer in the possible duplicate? There is a huge difference in memory usage between 420p and 720p and that is what the `MediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener()` and `MediaPlayer.prepareAsync()` are doing. Caching the video so it can be played without a crash. Simply calling `.start()` is not good enough for HD video. – Tigger Dec 26 '17 at 09:39
  • ok have to do this MediaPlayer.prepareAsync() in comman method of onPrepared like this @Override public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) { if (mp.isPlaying()) { mp.stop(); mp.release(); mp = new MediaPlayer(); } mp.prepareAsync(); mp.start(); } but now detect one more error is : E/MediaPlayer: prepareAsync called in state 8 – Bhargav Parmar Dec 26 '17 at 10:09
  • Finally i get the libraries for playing HD video in android version 4.2.2, Link : https://github.com/tcking/GiraffePlayer , But now i have facing one more issue is when i play two video in same screen than at the time any one video is play another video stay on push mode so how i do this? to play two video at the same time. – Bhargav Parmar Dec 28 '17 at 07:32
