You should use MediaPlayerStream from the Audio library.

That's a ShoutCast station, you will need to write a little app for that.

You can do it using MediaPlayerStream, but it seems that station is private, at least, that's what I see on the console.

Well its public radio station located here NVO "OTVORENA MREŽA"
and actually its business is humanitarian work (collecting donations for ill people)

I want to build app that will enable users to call number and give donation. Also I wanted to play radio in background.

are you sure it can't played in MediaPlayerStream ? Do you have another idea please?

I could be wrong, but maybe the encoding they are using is not supported by Android, they use "audio/aacp", other stations using "audio/mpeg" play just fine.
