App not Responding While Playing media from url

I have songs from json in list view, and a play button in each row , after clicking on play Button my app freezes and App not responding dialog box comes, Sometime media player started after freezing sometimes its crashes. Because of App not responsive. This is my Code :
viewHolder.playButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
selectedPosition = position;
if (selectedPosition != mPlayingPosition) {
try {
mPlayerforplanet.reset();
mPlayerforplanet.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mPlayerforplanet.setDataSource(song_urls);
logger.addRecordToLog("MediaPlayer audio session ID: " + mPlayerforplanet.getAudioSessionId());
logger.addRecordToLog("Media Player started " + "Started !");
mPlayerforplanet.prepare();
mPlayerforplanet.start();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// playSongs(position);(i also try with method of playsong but no luck)
Toast.makeText(getContext(), "play song" + mPlayingPosition, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}}});
Log cat after click on play button

Please use prepareAsync instead of prepare and handle onPrepared and trigger start from there .
mPlayerforplanet.prepareAsync();
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
mPlayerforplanet.start;
}
sample code :
package com.example.simplemediaplayer.app;
import android.media.AudioManager;
import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.widget.Toast;
import java.io.IOException;
public class MediaPlayerActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
private static final String TAG = "tag";
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_media_player);
String url = "http://www.brothershouse.narod.ru/music/pepe_link_-_guitar_vibe_113_club_mix.mp3"; // your URL here
MediaPlayer myMediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
myMediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
try {
myMediaPlayer.setDataSource(url);
myMediaPlayer.prepareAsync(); // might take long! (for buffering, etc)
} catch (IOException e) {
Toast.makeText(this, "mp3 not found", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
e.printStackTrace();
}
//mp3 will be started after completion of preparing...
myMediaPlayer.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
#Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer player) {
player.start();
}
});
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.media_player, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
For seek-bar use a anew runnable :
Starting runnable ,
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer player) {
mPlayerforplanet.start();
mUpdateSeekBar.run();
}
Code in runnable
private final Runnable mUpdateSeekBar = new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int elapsedtime = mPlayerforplanet.getCurrentPosition();
/* update UI with getCurrentPosition*/
mHandler.postDelayed(mUpdateSeekBar, 1000);
}
};

Thread th = new Thread(new Runnable() {

th.start();//starts
th.interrupt();//this stops.
and use
while (progressStatus < 100 && (!Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted())){....
instead of
while (progressStatus < 100) {....

Now i want to stop the progress at the same time when user clicks on
a button.I have tried thread.stop()
Thread.stop() is deprecated and you should not use it. The basic concept to understand is that a thread terminates is execution when the last line of code of his run method is executed. In the case of your "ProgressBar Thread*, when the user press the button, you have to set the exit condition of your while-loop (progressStatus = 100) in order to make it terminate

I am wanting to Run Multiple mediaplayers at once

I am new to Android development and am working on an app that I use for my work. It required multiple buttons to each pay a sound. It is however more complicated than that.
I have managed to make a mediaplayer that will play sounds, pause, fade etc from buttons giving the button tag a string that is passed to the player as file to play. I can press other buttons and start a new sound without problems after stopping and releasing the MP. My problem is As this is for my theatre show. I want to be able to cross mix (i.e as one sound fades the next is starting). The first thought is I need a different MP for each button (which would use a lot of copy code) and also I want to be able to set up nearly 100 buttons.
Has anyone done this before, I have searched for hours online to find very little help. Any help would be useful thank you in advance.

Streaming Audio Android app doesn't works on Galaxy S4

Your streaming url (http://makrodigital.com:8134/radiolluvia) has AAC format with content-type: audio/aacp.
But audio/aacp streaming is not supported directly. Maybe previously was another link? MP3 or something else?
For playing this url you can use this library:

thread executing before

i have a little bit of a problem here when calling a new thread.
I am making a audio recording app and i call the recording/playback in separate threads.
There is a button to start the recording. I am trying to update the button with new text via a handler.post object and method.
The problem is it takes too long to update. The text doesnt update till after the thread(s) run +5 secs longer.
can someone help me? please?

I think so it is because you are calling startRec() first and then running the recThread..try to modify your code as below..that is remove your startRec() function from above recThread.run() line and add it after try catch..hope it helped you..
Thread recThread = new Thread( new Runnable(){
public void run() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
textViewHandler.post(new Runnable () {
public void run(){
startBtn.setText("Recording!");
}
});
//remove it from here..
// startRec();
}
});
// RUN RECORDING FUNCTION
recThread.run();
try {
recThread.join();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
//add here..
startRec();
