                          videoView.requestFocus();
                 videoView.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() 
                          {

                              public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) 
                              {                      
                                  progressDialog.dismiss();    
                                  videoView.seekTo(5000);
                                  videoView.start();

                              }
                          });

You can use seekTo after actual playing of video is started. call it after videoView.start();
