there manny others ways when a fixed way doesn't work.i am not sure if this will help you or anyone else in other conditions ..
i use this php script to streaming in my test .in b4a you can link the url hosting to a WebView library (if anyone watch are begginer this is an example how to use webview https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/webview-example-pimp-up-your-app.24321/ you may change url there with your url where you upload the php script )

$filePath='flm/m1.mp4';
$stream = new VideoStream($filePath);
$stream->start();

?>



...so if you make an folder there on your hosting named flm then you put an small "m1.mp4" movie that script will streaming for you over an browser the movie.this is again an proof that php is the only friend you have and if you know manny languages that will save your "Aquaring Saving Sollutions" :)

so you have here the link where they teach you how to streaming video using php to any other resource http://codesamplez.com/programming/php-html5-video-streaming-tutorial (thanks Rana)
