ANDROID: How do I download a video file to SD card?

I have a video file on a website in .MP4 format and I want to allow the user to be able to download the video to their SD card by clicking a link. Is there an easy way to do this. I currently have this code but its not working...not sure what I am doing wrong. THanks for any help!

aren't running out of memory ? I imagine a video file is very large - which you are buffering before writing to file.

I know your example code is all over the internet - but it's BAD for downloading ! Use this:

private final int TIMEOUT_CONNECTION = 5000;//5sec
private final int TIMEOUT_SOCKET = 30000;//30sec


            URL url = new URL(imageURL);
            long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
            Log.i(TAG, "image download beginning: "+imageURL);

            //Open a connection to that URL.
            URLConnection ucon = url.openConnection();

            //this timeout affects how long it takes for the app to realize there's a connection problem
            ucon.setReadTimeout(TIMEOUT_CONNECTION);
            ucon.setConnectTimeout(TIMEOUT_SOCKET);


            //Define InputStreams to read from the URLConnection.
            // uses 3KB download buffer
            InputStream is = ucon.getInputStream();
            BufferedInputStream inStream = new BufferedInputStream(is, 1024 * 5);
            FileOutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream(file);
            byte[] buff = new byte[5 * 1024];

            //Read bytes (and store them) until there is nothing more to read(-1)
            int len;
            while ((len = inStream.read(buff)) != -1)
            {
                outStream.write(buff,0,len);
            }

            //clean up
            outStream.flush();
            outStream.close();
            inStream.close();

            Log.i(TAG, "download completed in "
                    + ((System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000)
                    + " sec");5


Never hardwire a path, particularly to external storage. Your path is wrong on many devices. Use Environment.getExternalStoragePath() to get the root of external storage (which may be /sdcard or /mnt/sdcard or something else).

Be sure to create your subdirectory, using the File object you get back from Environment.getExternalStoragePath().

And, finally, don't just say "but its not working". We have no idea what "but its not working" means in your case. Without that information, it is very difficult to help you.
