Attempt to invoke interface method 'boolean android.widget.MediaController' Exception when I tried to add MediaController

So glad that I finally found a solution here for using your optimized VideoView in my app.

I'm trying to add MediaController to the VideoView so that my users can have a control over the Video in my customized MessageAdapter but I'm getting this exception. How do i resolve this? Can you please guide me.
