After sdk update from 1.0.4 to 1.0.6 I faced the problem:

android_surface vout display: Could not initialize libandroid.so/libui.so/libgui.so/libsurfaceflinger_client.so!

Debug messages I added:

android_surface vout display: dlopen 'libsurfaceflinger_client.so' result = 0x0
android_surface vout display: dlopen 'libgui.so' result = 0xb6e7d644
android_surface vout display: s_lock = 0x0
android_surface vout display: s_lock2 = 0x0
android_surface vout display: s_unlock = 0xb6b0c081

android_surface vout display: s_lock = 0x0
android_surface vout display: s_lock2 = 0x0
android_surface vout display: s_unlock = 0x0

Help me, please!

Thank you for your library.
I'm still using the old version "de.mrmaffen:vlc-android-sdk:1.0.3", and I'm going to place the app on Google Play for the alpha test.
But I had a problem, as the developer console does not accept APK with the comment "Failed to recognize the file", and when I turned off the dependence application housed.
Do I need to include some kind of permission to use the library for publication?

Hello

I try to play rtmp streaming from wowza, delay more than 10 second, Howto disable network cache,?

Hey there,

I noticed this library has no license. Can I assume this uses the same license as LibVLC (LGPL) or do you want to license your code differently?

• Jamy

How to use this library. Im using an older one when i try to include this current version its giving me error. Please give me sample code link. I am using 1.0.3

Thanks.

I added a dependency compile "de.mrmaffen:vlc-android-sdk:3.0.0".
I wrote a class:

I receive an error:

core access: VLC could not open the file "//rtmp://myserver.com:1935/rtmp/video1" (No such file or directory).

why the link was a file?

hello there
i've implemented the library successfully, but the issue is that when i stop the stream, the application freezes and uses a 50% of the cpu and never unfreeze
i use mediaPlayer.stop(); in the main thread

Hey,

I would like to exclude architectures for x86 and x86_64 which I don't need and it's just blowing up my APK.

Is there any way when using Gradle to do this using an exclude statement?

Thanks,

I tried to compile the vlc lib using your script because it's almost impossible to compie using the instructions in vlc page (https://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile/)
The problem is that the same erros happened.
Can you give some advice about this?
I am using Ubuntu 15
Do I need to downgrade my Ubuntu to 13?

Thanks

Hello,

Im trying to set initial volume with no sucess. If i use setVolume after play is not working, setVolume after some events like vout, playing is not working too and the option --volume= is not working also.

Can you help-me ?

Build libVlc version wiht anabled sout, it will allow to use libVlc for video recording and save it to file

Realse version will remove assert. As the unknown networking status, it's important in product environment.

Hi,
I know there is no VLC support here, but just in case... either its a simple thing, or someone else knows the answer.
So I am getting these errors when I try to load an URI that is not woring for some reason.
E/VLC: [7126d274] core input: Your input can't be opened E/VLC: [7126d274] core input: VLC is unable to open the MRL ...
And I really would like to handle these exceptions but I cannot find a callback. The URIs are from a database so I cannot know in advance.
Thanks in advance if you know the answer and can take a little time to respond!

How to use embedded VLC player for live Rtsp and RMTP streaming in my application ?
So what are the steps to achieve this?

Hey there.

I know I really should be asking this question at VLC Forums or IRC, but my IP got banned at the Forums (no idea why) and no one really helps on the IRC channel.

I compiled VLC, got the .so files and then imported it as an Existing Project into my Gradle. All this worked fine.

But problem 1: the .so files don't get copied to /data/data//lib/ when I run gradle build. Do I have to make any changes to build.gradle?

Problem 2: I tried manually copying libvlcjni.so to /data/data//lib/. But still system.loadLibrary() doesn't work.

It says

21221               dalvikvm  E  dlopen("/data/data/com.vibin.billy.debug/lib/libvlcjni.so") failed: dlopen failed: library "/data/data/com.vibin.billy.debug/lib/libvlcjni.so" not found

Thanks a lot!

I installed the dependency link and wrote an example. If it use the standard class MediaPlayer, the local video playing. And if you use org.videolan.libvlc.media.MediaPlayer, it does not show any local or what the link.

Hello, please add buffering event like this
https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-android/commit/1c4b6c51cb33dc884f78e7c7bb4b9e9d8eff18fc

I've been working on an Android application that shows live streaming video via RTSP. Assuming I have a well-functioning RTSP server that passes h264 packets, and to view the stream we should connect to rtsp://192.168.42.1/live, old VLC player works fine, but this version cannot view the live stream.

Code like this:

        ArrayList<String> options = new ArrayList<String>();
        options.add("--aout=opensles");
        options.add("--audio-time-stretch"); // time stretching
        options.add("-vvv"); // verbosity
        //options.add
        libvlc = new LibVLC(options);
        holder.setKeepScreenOn(true);

        // Create media player
        mMediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(libvlc);
        mMediaPlayer.setEventListener(mPlayerListener);

        // Set up video output
        final IVLCVout vout = mMediaPlayer.getVLCVout();
        vout.setVideoView(mSurface);
        vout.addCallback(this);
        vout.attachViews();
        //Media m = new Media(libvlc, media);
        Media mm = new Media(libvlc,Uri.parse(mVideoPath));
        mMediaPlayer.setMedia(mm);
        mMediaPlayer.play();

I am using your built SDK for android application. Unfortunately I am receiving this error while running MediaPlayer.play():

W/libOpenSLES(23077): class OutputMix interface 0 requested but unavailable MPH=43

The audio doesn't play at all and there is also now volume. Is there any workaround to this please?

Hey,
could you add armeabi and x86 to your maven repo? Id like to use your build in productive mode but with only v7a, it would exclude too many people.

Please add method for play url stream and add the play from url and add event to buffering please/ thanks

I'm new to the vlc, i don't konw how to use,where to get the android api. thanks

As new user of the sdk, it is almost impossible to understand how to use it even after several hours reading the source code (which should not be necessary).
Even some quick examples would help a lot.

I should need to add something that If i am using ProGuard

this is my vedio url:
http://video.kocla.com/Phonics.Kids.DVD.2_201609280833530524.avi?e=2137310110&token=kEUFey_36xJqHaOhr44fNd8eNUo4a9TLtMJSrqhu:LCcx_VvUkxLbYSPc7GcbRwvPVJY=

Hi, is there any documentation about the SDK ? I would like to play some video's from URL and I couldn't find anything.

there is an error in the assembly 1.9.8!
When using the "compile 'de.mrmaffen: vlc-android-sdk: 1.9.8' '" there was an error on some rtmp Stream in flv format, which reads: "W / VLC: [573d7174] avcodec decoder: can not decode one frame ( 9045 bytes) "and the video is only green, broken picture.
I had to return to "compile 'de.mrmaffen: vlc-android-sdk: 1.9.0'" and the problem is gone!
I hope it will help improve the next assembly.
