So I found this sample and it works for me, here it is if you have the same issue:
in myMain.java
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import java.io.IOException;
import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.media.MediaPlayer.OnBufferingUpdateListener;
import android.media.MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ProgressBar;
public class myMain extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
private ProgressBar playSeekBar;
private Button buttonPlay;
private Button buttonStopPlay;
private MediaPlayer player;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
initializeUIElements();
initializeMediaPlayer();
}
private void initializeUIElements() {
playSeekBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar1);
playSeekBar.setMax(100);
playSeekBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
buttonPlay = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonPlay);
buttonPlay.setOnClickListener(this);
buttonStopPlay = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonStopPlay);
buttonStopPlay.setEnabled(false);
buttonStopPlay.setOnClickListener(this);
}
public void onClick(View v) {
if (v == buttonPlay) {
startPlaying();
} else if (v == buttonStopPlay) {
stopPlaying();
}
}
private void startPlaying() {
buttonStopPlay.setEnabled(true);
buttonPlay.setEnabled(false);
playSeekBar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
player.prepareAsync();
player.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener() {
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
player.start();
}
});
}
private void stopPlaying() {
if (player.isPlaying()) {
player.stop();
player.release();
initializeMediaPlayer();
}
buttonPlay.setEnabled(true);
buttonStopPlay.setEnabled(false);
playSeekBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
}
private void initializeMediaPlayer() {
player = new MediaPlayer();
try {
player.setDataSource("http://usa8-vn.mixstream.net:8138");
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
player.setOnBufferingUpdateListener(new OnBufferingUpdateListener() {
public void onBufferingUpdate(MediaPlayer mp, int percent) {
playSeekBar.setSecondaryProgress(percent);
Log.i("Buffering", "" + percent);
}
});
}
@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
if (player.isPlaying()) {
player.stop();
}
}
}
in the XML (main.xml) code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Source: (Radio La Chevere)"
android:layout_marginTop="10dip" android:gravity="center" />
<ProgressBar android:id="@+id/progressBar1"
android:indeterminateOnly="false" android:progressDrawable="@android:drawable/progress_horizontal"

android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"

<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/linearLayout1"

</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
and the android manifest:
