Description
*Summary*
When playing a video from URL using Media.VideoPlayer, the video freezes after 2-3 seconds and errors are displayed on Android 5.1 (API level 22).
*Steps to reproduce*
Create a Classic titanium app project
Add the below code to _app.js_
Use any of the affected SDK versions (e.g. 8.2.0.GA)
Run on Android API 22 emulator or device
var window = Ti.UI.createWindow({ fullscreen: true });
var videoView = Ti.Media.createVideoPlayer({
url: "http://assets.appcelerator.com.s3.amazonaws.com/video/media.m4v",
autoplay: true,
width: Ti.UI.FILL,
height: Ti.UI.FILL,
});
window.add(videoView);
window.open();

I have at hand devices with Android 5.0 and Android 6.0. These are the closest APIs I can test with on real devices. On both the video plays correctly without errors against 8.3.0.GA. If you are able to share details about the device with Android 5.1, I can try to get something similar. As for emulator - I have had numerous problems with playing the video across all the supported APIs (also other videos), but I dare say streaming video on an Android emulator is not reliable in general.

[~gmathews], need to cherry-pick the changes to 9_0_X branch

Reopening ticket as application crashes with the following error once the video is played.
