Revisiting this question after I found it a few weeks ago unanswered....

You can try to play it in a VideoView...

videoView.setOnErrorListener(new OnErrorListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onError(MediaPlayer mp, int what, int extra) {
            // An error occured trying to play the file, do something else.
        }
});

This is not a way to "just check a file if it is supported" but you can use this to play the file and do something else if it is not supported.

I know it's a bit late answer but maybe someone will find in useful in future. You can check supported mime type in following way:

MimeTypeMap.getSingleton().hasMimeType(mimeType)
