Im not really sure what you are trying to do. You want to display "part of a video"? Are you trying to output video from the device to a screen? Or from another device to the phone?

Anyway, I suggest you get the Android SDK from google. They basically tell you how to write apps. There are also books or classes you can take too.

So your wanting to make an app that allows you to share and play(synced) video over multiple phones?

Yes as above said you will first need to get the Android SDK, but to write this program you will need to be very skilled programmer with alot of times on your hands...

You will first need to know alot about networking, allowing you to connect to other phones and i assume create a buffer system then have all phones play at time that the buffers are reached to maintain steady flow based of network stats.

If you want to do streaming you will need to know even more, not to mention you will need to probably write your own video playing software.

OR you could simply write a program that links the x # of phones together and then streams from phone a to phones x-n through a 3rd party stream capable video player.

Blinkendroid has been found but I'd like to watch a movie on my Android device and broadcast / stream it on other Android device synchronised.

ie :
