Android :: Unable To Play MPEG4 Video Stream On SDK 1.6
Jul 16, 2010
I am sending a MPEG4 video stream in RTP format over RTSP to my android emulator using ffmpeg and ffserver. I use the Android VideoView to play the RTSP stream. I do not see the video. The error in LogCat is pasted below. Is there some specific that I need to do? If I use the Android 2.2 to run the same code, the video plays fine.
I also tried coding video using H263, but that stream does not play in 1.6/2.2 emulator =================================================================================== 07-16 15:50:46.073: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (6) 07-16 15:50:46.273: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (6) 07-16 15:50:46.474: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:46.683: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:46.884: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:47.092: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:47.293: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:47.492: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:47.703: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:47.902: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:48.113: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (73) 07-16 15:50:48.123: DEBUG/PlayerDriver(554): buffering (100) 07-16 15:50:48.162: ERROR/SW_DEC(554): PV SW DECODER is used for MPEG4 07-16 15:50:48.223: INFO/MP(807): onPrepared called 07-16 15:50:48.223: INFO/MP(807): vv start 07-16 15:50:48.252: INFO/mediaDuration3(807): -1 07-16 15:50:48.384: ERROR/PlayerDriver(554): HandleErrorEvent: PVMFErrCorrupt 07-16 15:50:48.652: WARN/PlayerDriver(554): PVMFInfoErrorHandlingComplete 07-16 15:50:48.652: ERROR/MediaPlayer(807): error (1, -10) 07-16 15:50:48.652: ERROR/MediaPlayer(807): Attempt to call getDuration without a valid mediaplayer 07-16 15:50:48.652: ERROR/MediaPlayer(807): error (-38, 0) 07-16 15:50:48.794: ERROR/MediaPlayer(807): Error (1,-10) 07-16 15:50:48.794: DEBUG/VideoView(807): Error: 1,-10 07-16 15:50:48.794: INFO/MP(807): onError called 07-16 15:50:49.063: ERROR/MediaPlayer(807): Error (-38,0) 07-16 15:50:49.072: DEBUG/VideoView(807): Error: -38,0 07-16 15:50:49.072: INFO/MP(807): onError called ===================================================================================

I have an app that worked fine on Android 2.1 (Eclair) but is no longer working in 2.2.1 (Froyo). I think this may have to do with the shift from OpenCore to StageFright for video encoding and decoding, but am unsure.
The debug logs show two things I'm not sure about:
Does this mean H.264 baseline is not supported? WARN/QCvdec(59): Parsing Error unsupported profile or level No idea about: ERROR/PVOMXVidDecNode(59): Ln 1373 OMX_EventError nData1 -2147479542 nData2 0
Play the following url (it works fine in VLC, for example): rtsp://nexus3.dropcam.com/6821ec44e37846428850ec195d69969a

There is an online stream that is 512Kb MPEG4 and total size of 312mb online and if I'm correct after looking over docs in order to play the movie I just simply put:
CODE:..................
It is triggered to play after a button press which after a few seconds after pressing the button it plays the audio BUT doesn't show the video, why not? Do I have to use a surface view or something for visual playback of the stream.

I want to subscribe to tennistv.com so I can watch tennis and would love to watch it on my Samsung Galaxy S phone too.
It uses a WMP DRM'd stream for live matches, is there any media players on android that I can use or maybe a 3rd party service which can transcode the stream in a format the phone can understand?

I am a sales engineer for a company that specializes in streaming. I have and love my droid, i have tried using it with several of our products for live streaming but with no luck.
I have tried video meant to stream with the Ipod and nothing happens.
I have tried MP4 ASP and it starts to open the video but never plays.
I have tried progressive downloads of both with no luck.
i have tried 3gp with no luck.
Do you know what video formats it can stream?

I have two questions regarding video recording on the Droid X.
1. What options are there for encoding? On my HTC Hero I can encode in MPEG4 or H.263. What about the Droid X?
2. My friend sent me a video from her Droid X, but I can't hear anything as far as audio in a normal setting. The only way I can pick up anything she's saying is if I max out the Media volume and hold the speaker directly up to my ear. Is there something she's doing wrong when she's recording the video? This has happened twice now.

Isn't playing a video in HQ a matter of selecting it from the menu? So does this review make any sense?

So I have had my Droid Eris for about a week now. The other day I decided to play around on YouTube to see what it was like. Here is the thing though, I have literally found like 1 video that will play. Most of the time I get "This video can not be played". Anyone know why this is?

At first, I believe there was a question that would pop up asking me whether I wanted to use youtube or not, but I must have said don't ask anymore, because I don't get that now (is there a way to get that question back?). Now when I click on a flash file, I get a choice to download or play. I click play, and the screen goes black. There is some sort of spinning 'loading' graphic, then I get a popup that says "Cannot play video Unable to connect to server". This happens on any of the major video sites.

htc desire froyo. When I go to youtube.com from the stock browser I can load the page but when I click to any of videos it looks like it starts to load (loading circle in the middle is rotating) and then I get the message "An error occured, please try again later." at the center of the clip.
I was able to play them but now I can't. Can anyone provide a solution?
And please thank you anyway but do not offer solutions such as: use another browser, go to mobile site, use youtube app (which works by the way).
Main reason for me to switch to android is option to enjoy desktop view of the web on mobile device.

I want to stream a video to Android, preferably over RTP. Session setup would be done with SIP. Any ideas where to start? I looked at sipdroid, but there is only audio.

I'm using VideoView to play an RTSP video stream. It works fine, however on my Android phone the audio lags the video by about 3 seconds. If I watch it on my computer with VLC both the audio and video are in sync. Has anyone else experienced this audio delay before and how might I go about correcting it on the phone.

I am trying to dump h264 encoded bitstream to a file(video recording usecase). I had added the code for the file dump in the OMX FillBufferDone () callback. [Fillbufferdoneprocessing() function in pvmf_omx_enc_node.cpp] In the dump, what I observed is that the start code is not present and I think the SPS and PPS sequences are getting dumped. I am unable to playback the dumped stream. I am using 'ffplay' player.

I want to get the stream and send it to server directly by using MediaRecorder.
Actually, I am able to record the video,and able to store it into sdcard. Now I want to it to stream (live stream) to server rather than storing it.

Currently I am developing an application that will stream video using RTP and SIP. I have this mostly working with audio working fine both ways using Java (and native) codecs. I can stream out video also from the camera to a windows client.
The problem comes from when I want to receive and decode the video on the android platform. I understand at this stage that Mediaplayer only supports RTSP streams. Ironically it does what I need (by getting the SDP information from using RTSP SETUP call and using that RTP/UDP information to receive the stream). But I can't seem to access this functionality, all it takes as input is a RTSP url. If you are unfamiliar the difference between RTSP using RTP and SIP using RTP. You can read about the differences here<http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~hgs/rtsp/faq.html#rtsp_sip> .
What I need to do is take an RTP stream encoded with h.263-1998 and somehow pass it to the mediaplayer (or even a lower level api if somebody can provide an example).
The only way I can think around this is to write another service to receive the RTP stream and provide an RTSP interface... but this is a really ugly solution.

I bought a cable, manufactured by HTC, which is supposed to give you the ability to stream video out via the device's usb connector. It has a usb connector on one end and splits out to three rca plugs on the other (the usual red, white, and yellow for audio and video). HTC claims that the cable is compatible with my phone (the HTC Eris). When I connected the cable and it didn't work, I wrote to HTC support, which replied that I need software to enable the phone to do this. I searched the anroid market and the web and could not find any such software. I wrote back to HTC asking for them to suggest software to me and they never responded. Does anyone know of such software? Would HTC manufacture a cable in anticipation of somebody developing the proper software?

Has anyone gotten vuze to stream video to their phone? If so what on the phone needs to be done, some app or setting? PS3 works great, although that I can actually see the vuze device fine. In vuze it see's my phone in the devices but I'm not sure what to do other than copy over the movie to the phone in vuze. Plus it looks like the phone is grayed out in vuze.

I would like to be able to capture the video from an android phone camera, and then process this video. Processing involves adding a layer of AR to the live stream. Is this possible on android? Pretty sure it should be. I have looked at the android site [http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/index.html] but this seems to be concerned with video capture and storage. I would like to be able to play with the video pre-storage.

I wanted to stream A/V from my machine to Android over HTTP
(http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/libav-user/2010-July/004944.html).
But that does not seem feasible using FFMpeg. I am planning to try FFMpeg streaming over RTSP. But I am not sure whether MediaPlayer or VideoView classes on Android support RTSP playback. Is playing RTSP stream possible in simple application?
