title: Integrating video file in android app as app background
body: <p>I need to use video as my background. First I placed the video file in drawable folder and called as background of <code>LinearLayout</code> in main.xml. But while running the app, I saw only a black screen. Then I tried to use <code>VideoView</code> and called it like following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  &lt;VideoView
      android:id="@+id/video"
      android:layout_width="320px"
      android:layout_height="240px"
      android:layout_gravity="center"
      android:background="@raw/hp"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In my activity file I called it with following code snippet:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  
          setContentView(R.layout.main);
          VideoView video=(VideoView) findViewById(R.id.video);
          video.start();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But still I am not getting the video file there. My main propose is to use a bubble video as background and putting two bubble buttons on it and gives the user a feel like water view screen. Can anyone help me? </p>
  
  <p>Also the video file I want to use from the res folder. Not from SD card or any outer media folder.</p>
