There are two techniques:

1. Using MediaPlayer: If you are using streaming server to fetch video then just provide your URL in MediaPlayer source. MediaPlayer will manage everything.

2. Manually: If you are not using streaming server for video then you need to download and play video. Use following link as example. In following link author explain audio streaming. You can use same technique for video.
