Use this method from the PlayerView class:

 setShowBuffering(boolean showBuffering)

/**

  • Sets whether a buffering spinner is displayed when the player is in the buffering state. The
  • buffering spinner is not displayed by default.
  • @param showBuffering Whether the buffering icon is displayer */

It is also an attribute that you can set in the XML layout: show_buffering

EDIT 2021
As mentionned below by @Rohaitas Tanoli the code above is now deprecated. Here is the updated code:

setShowBuffering(PlayerView.SHOW_BUFFERING_ALWAYS)

Use app:show_buffering in layout file and values are
never = The buffering view is never shown.
always = The buffering view is always shown when the player is in the buffering state.
when_playing=The buffering view is shown when the player is in the buffering state and playWhenReady is true.
