Ok, so now it streams the video. Thanks.

But now the problem is, how can I put a buffering bar on top of the
surfaceview so they know when it will play. Also, how can I make it so
that it doesn't skip like crazy. Like check how muched buffered and if
it is 10% resume play and if it catches up...pause.

What is the best way to do that?

Thanks again Mark.
