Video streaming from xml file(android)

Question

I'm creating an android application that can play the video from xml file in ListView. But somehow when I clicked on the ListView, the error message come out and the application is forcing to stop.

The listview code is

public class CustomizedListView extends Activity {    
static final String URL = "...";

static final String KEY_LINK = "link";


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

String  myUrl = channelList.get(position).get("url");
Intent n = new Intent(CustomizedListView.this , VideoViewActivity.class);
      n.putExtra("url", myUrl);
      startActivity(n);

VideoView code:

public class VideoViewActivity extends Activity {

Intent n = getIntent();

String myurl = n.getStringExtra("url");
VideoView videoView;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
   super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
   setContentView(R.layout.videoview_main);
   
 videoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.VideoView);
 MediaController mc = new MediaController(this);
 videoView.setMediaController(mc);

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

 videoView.requestFocus();
 videoView.start();
 }

 }

I tried to change the static final String KEY_LINK = "link"; to static final String KEY_LINK = "videolocation"; as suggested on other post but it still doesn't work.

The crash log are:

Answer 1

you have not declared VideoViewActivity activity in your manifest. please declare it in manifest and then try.

the logcat shows

android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: 
Unable to find explicit activity class {com.example.androidhive/com.example.androidhive.VideoViewActivity}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

in manifest file under application tag write

 <activity android:name=".VideoViewActivity ">
 </activity>

move this after setContentView in video view activity

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

Answer 2

The problem because you haven't register your VideoViewActivity in your manifest file. So register under application tag it by

<activity android:name=".VideoViewActivity ">
</activity>

you should move this

 Intent n = getIntent();

 String myurl = n.getStringExtra("url");

after onCreate() method. SO it will be

 @Override
 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  setContentView(R.layout.videoview_main);


  Intent n = getIntent();
  String myurl = n.getStringExtra("url");
  videoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.VideoView);
  MediaController mc = new MediaController(this);
  videoView.setMediaController(mc);

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

  videoView.requestFocus();
  videoView.start();
  }
