You can try this one:
Bitmap bm = null;
try {
URL imageURL = new URL("http://example.com/image.jpg";);
BufferedInputStream bis = new
BufferedInputStream(imageURL.openStream(), 1024);
bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis);
bis.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
// handle
}
then you can call:
boxart.setImageBitmap(bm);
