title: Video as a Splash Screen instead of Picture
body: <p>I am doing the Android Programming Tutorial on Splash Screens where you show a picture or text for 5 Seconds than it goes to the Main Application. My Question is..Instead of Text or Pictures I want to display a Video File for 5 Seconds before it goes to the Next page of the Application.</p>
  
  <p>I am not talking about when the Application Loads I am talking about when it is Loaded and you program it to display something on a Separate Java &amp; XML page to display something then move to something else..here is my current code.</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle SplashScreen1) {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
      super.onCreate(SplashScreen1);
      setContentView(R.layout.splash);
      ourSong = MediaPlayer.create(Splash.this, R.raw.splashsound);
      ourSong.start();
      Thread timer = new Thread(){
          public void run(){
              try{
                  sleep(5000);
              } catch (InterruptedException e){
                  e.printStackTrace();
              }finally{
                  Intent openStartingPoint = new Intent("com.Player.Splash.STARTINGPOINT");
                  startActivity(openStartingPoint);
  
              }
          }
      };
      timer.start();
  
  }
  
  @Override
  protected void onPause() {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
      super.onPause();
      ourSong.release();
      finish();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So What Do I do to make it display a  Video Media file without the Start/Stop etc..</p>
