If I want to package my videos with my app (so that the user must download them to watch them offline) what is the best way to play them? Do I need to attach a player? What type of plug-in should I be using on my BT Control Panel? I would like to plan on using dropbox to hold my files and know very little about html coding so any help with the steps (if applicable) is appreciated. I having been playing around with the video option and am able to use the launch native plug-in however it occurred to me that this is a self-guided walking tour in a area where cell reception might be a challenge for some. In theory I am thinking this may be the neatest approach.

I haven't tried this, but try putting your video in the BT_Video folder in eclipse, say you name it video.3gp (or whatever the file extension is), then in the BT Dashboard add a custom url - file:///android_asset/BT_Video/video.3gp See if that works to open the video in a native player.

Thanks raveyd - I tried your idea but it doesn't work on the emulator or my device. On my device I get a blank screen that has the loading wheel for a second then nothing - just stops there. My file format for the video is .3gp (in case that helps).

ylaube73 - Did you ever find a way to package your videos with your app?

@caracombs - sorry I did not. I ended up using youtube and the Buzztouch "Launch Native" screen with the browser/url option pointing to a custom made image map that links out to the youtube videos. I tried the "Custom HTML/Text" screen but had weird crashing/force close issues.
