This just opens the video in the browser when I tested it. Then again it has been 6 years...

I used the code given by @TjWallas . The app playing only sound without video. It is showing only black screen in the web view. Please help me with this.

^This maybe because you are using an emulator. Try using the latest APK with hardware acceleration turned on and/or a real device.

The code is outdated.
This method was deprecated in API level 18. Plugins are not supported in API level Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT or later; enabling plugins is a no-op.
Check link:
public abstract void setPluginState (WebSettings.PluginState state)
