Android, videoView can't open this video Online video

Question

I used videoView to play an mp4 file from the Internet, but it can't play this video all the time. This is my code:

Uri uri = Uri.parse("http://vfx.mtime.cn/Video/2019/02/08/mp4/190208204943376259.mp4");
videoView.setVideoURI(uri);
videoView.setOnPreparedListener(createOnPreparedListener());

private MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener createOnPreparedListener(){
        return new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
            @Override
            public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
                mp.start();
            }
        };
    }

It could run well in my emulator, but not success in my android device. And my targetSdkVersion and compileSdkVersion is 28, my android device API is android 28, my emulator API is 23

and the logcat as following:

I could fix this problem by adding this to my manifest android:usesCleartextTraffic="true":

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest ...>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <application
        ...
        android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
        ...>
        ...
    </application>
</manifest>

Remove all and just use

 videoView.setVideoPath(videoUrl);

        videoView.start();

Please try this

 mVideoViewIntro = findViewById(R.id.video_view_intro);
    MediaController mediaController = new MediaController(this);
    mediaController.setAnchorView(mVideoViewIntro);
    mVideoViewIntro.setMediaController(mediaController);
    mVideoViewIntro.setVideoURI(Uri.parse("YOURURLGOESHERE"));
    mVideoViewIntro.start();
    mImageViewClose.setOnClickListener(v -> onBackPressed());

    mVideoViewIntro.setOnPreparedListener(mp -> {
        mp.start();
        mp.setOnVideoSizeChangedListener((mp1, arg1, arg2) -> {
            mProgressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
            mp1.start();
        });
    });
