HTTP Live streaming to Android

I'm trying to do http live streaming from VLC to an android app using VideoView.

I have 3gp video and use vlc to stream it:

cvlc -vvv video.3gp --sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128}:standard{access=http,mux=ogg,‌​dst=128.0.0.6:9090/jlanza}'

In my android I set the videoview source to http:// and to httplive:// but nothing is displayed. I always get an error.

When using RTP/RTSP it is working, and with progressive streaming from my web server as well. However I have to make it working with live streaming.

Can anybody explain to me how to configure vlc for http live streaming?
