android - Can not play video from my internal application directory -

it looks can not play videos stored in internal application directory.

i have videos stored in /data/data/my.package.org/files/

and i'm trying play file there using

string fpath = "/data/data/my.package.org/files/video.mpg" intent intent = new intent(intent.action_view); intent.setdataandtype(uri.parse(fpath), "video/*"); 

but both android default video player , external videoplayer (mx player) 'this video can not played".

whereas when i'm saving videos sd card played fine.

why that?

put video in assets folder , use code play video mediaplayer

inputstream = getresources().getassets().open("video.mpg"); 

or

put video in assets folder and...

string fpath = "/data/data/my.package.org/assets/video.mpg" intent intent = new intent(intent.action_view); intent.setdataandtype(uri.parse(fpath), "video/*");
