title: Play mp4 file from URL on android
body: <p>I've been researching for some time now, and all the questions I can find point to mp4 'hinting' but I have no control over the videos. </p>
  
  <p>I was about to give up when i discovered that MX video player on the android market can somehow play these mp4 urls I have. So at the moment I use an intent to launch the urls in mx player but I'd much rather display the video within my app.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas how mx player does this would be great,</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
