You can add JavascriptInterface to WebView and capture the click by VideoObjectID on your HTML page.

    WebSettings webSettings = webView.getSettings();
    webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    webView.addJavascriptInterface(new Object() {
      public void performClick() {
        // Deal with a click on the WebView's Video Object ID
      }
    }, "video_object_id");

You HTML must have something similar to below:

<div type="video_object_id" onclick="performClick();">Play Video</div>
