Title

I'm trying to play video's on Android, by launching an intent. The code I'm using is: tostart = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); tostart.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(movieurl), "video/*"); startActivity(tostart); This works on most phones, but not on the HTC Hero . It seems to load a bit different video player. This does play the first video thrown at it. However, every video after that it doesn't respond. (it keeps in some loop). If I add an explicit tostart.setClassName("com.htc.album","com.htc.album.ViewVideo"); (before the startactivity) it does work on the HTC Hero . However, since this is a HTC specific call, I can't run this code on other phones (such as the G1 ). On the G1 , this works: tostart.setClassName("com.android.camera","com.android.camera.MovieView"); //g1 version But this intent is missing from the hero. Does anybody know a list of intents/classnames that should be supported by all Android devices? Or a specific one to launch a video? Thanks!
