I’m interested in this sentence:
What do you mean by that? Do you mean “I the native
backends support it”, or “I the native backends
support it”, or just “I the native backends support
it”?
In fact, in general the native backends do NOT all support streaming
media. MediaCtrl has a “LoadURI” method that can load from a URL,
but that generally means downloading the complete file and playing
it locally. Streaming playback takes a different framework. It’s
possible to get a DirectShow source filter that reads from a
streaming source, but none are included with the operating system.
You might go check this list. ffmpeg is probably the best open
source framework that supports streaming media sources:

I'm working on a project to create a custom media playerwhich should supports the streaming media. I just followed the
example of MediaCtrl and the program can support local media
files by now. But I still didn’t know how to support the
streaming media by using MediaCtrl. Did any one ever work on
this issue?
As far as I’m concerned, the native backends do support it.
