Answer 3

I have just downloaded the 5.0 SDK in my Eclipse Android Development environment.

Makesure that you have downloaded the complete SDK apart from some system Images which you dont require.

If you have downloaded the SDK, then create and emulator device with Android 5.0.

In that, go to Apps---> API Demos ---> Media ----> Media Projection.

I can able to see the Media Projections App.
