HELP!!! How to get files to install on first play

Hi all,

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, feel free to move to where is appropriate.

I am currently new to programming android applications and the one im creating will be too large for Google Plays 50mb limit. I am wanting the app to install a folder full of videos to the users phone once they have installed the app and first go onto it. I have seen this done countless times on many games. But I do not even know where to start with the code to do this. Any suggestions would be of great help.

I have searched high and low on the internet but cannot seem to find an answer anywher, loads of the same questions but no answers.

Would any one be able to help.

Thanks in Advance,
Matty.S.
