How to play YouTube video inside Android WebView?

Question

I am making RSS reader application, and I get RSS data from URL, and that RSS data can contain link to YouTube video.

Here is an example how link to youtube vide looks like:

div class="video-shortcode"><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="600" 
height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/HXrcUyCVA6c"
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>

And when I run my application, there is no video, its all black, and I can't play it.

How I can play video inside WebView?

EDIT: Here is the result:

Here is my code:

 // set webview properties
    WebSettings ws = desc.getSettings();
    ws.setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.SINGLE_COLUMN);
    ws.getPluginState();
    ws.setPluginState(PluginState.ON);
    ws.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    ws.setUserAgent(0);
    ws.setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);

    desc.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
    });
    desc.loadDataWithBaseURL("http://www.balkanandroid.com/", feed
    .getItem(pos).getContent(), "text/html", "UTF-8", null);

I have android:hardwareAccelerated="true" in my AndroidManifest.xml.

Probably not of any use, but it might be handy for future people

But remove this line:

ws.setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.SINGLE_COLUMN);

and make sure javascript is enabled

ws.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

These two lines caused me quite a lot of trouble when I was starting out.
