        android:id="@+id/player"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />
3. Configure video source, and other options:
        VidstaPlayer player = (VidstaPlayer) findViewById(R.id.player);
        player.setVideoSource("http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/videos/big_buck_bunny.mp4");
        player.setAutoLoop(true);
        player.setAutoPlay(true);

# Setting video source to a remote video
player.setVideoSource("http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/videos/big_buck_bunny.mp4");

# Enabling fullscreen mode
player.setFullScreen(true);
player.setFullScreenButtonVisible(true);

# Adding coloured tint to text / buttons
player.setTextColor(intent.getIntExtra("textColour", Color.WHITE));
player.setButtonTintColor(intent.getIntExtra("iconTint", Color.WHITE));

# Setting new drawables
player.setPlayButtonDrawable(R.drawable.custom_video_play);
player.setPauseButtonDrawable(R.drawable.custom_video_pause);
player.setRetryButtonDrawable(R.drawable.custom_video_retry);
player.setFullscreenEnterDrawable(R.drawable.custom_video_screen_fullscreen_enter);
player.setFullscreenExitDrawable(R.drawable.custom_video_screen_fullscreen_exit);
player.setPreviousButtonDrawable(R.drawable.custom_video_previous);
player.setNextButtonDrawable(R.drawable.custom_video_next);

# Setting up autoloop & autoplay
player.setAutoLoop(true);

player.setOnVideoBufferingListener(new VideoStateListeners.OnVideoBufferingListener());
player.setOnVideoErrorListener(new VideoStateListeners.OnVideoErrorListener());
player.setOnVideoFinishedListener(new VideoStateListeners.OnVideoFinishedListener());
player.setOnVideoPausedListener(new VideoStateListeners.OnVideoPausedListener());
player.setOnVideoRestartListener(new VideoStateListeners.OnVideoRestartListener());
player.setOnVideoStartedListener(new VideoStateListeners.OnVideoStartedListener());
