VPlayer Library

This project provides the easiest way to include FFmpeg into any Android project with almost no NDK building and tweaking. Of course if you want to customize FFmpeg, you will have to build the project from scratch.

Forked from appunite/AndroidFFmpeg, this project has a few enhancements since they stopped updating the repository around April 2013. I have added some more functionality and a new simple project for developers to get started with.

Read the wikis for this work. Even if you are a beginner to NDK, this project should be comprehensable enough to include VPlayer into your project. I provide prebuilt binaries for the project.

Changes/Fixes from AndroidFFmpeg

Allows video application pausing and resuming when user suspends app (going home or another app)
Fixes crashing issue when using the same video player for multiple videos (with or without subs)
Fixes video startup crashes after returning from a video
Added hardware acceleration to YUV420 videos
Added a single build file to compile all dependencies without any need of commandline
Changed the Java library to easily integrate a video into a project
Added looping functionality

Sample integration

This is a very simple example that plays a video after starting the activity. You can view more integration tutorials here.

public class VideoActivity extends Activity {
    private VPlayerView mPlayerView;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        // Attach the player
        mPlayerView = new VPlayerView(this);
        setContentView(mPlayerView);

        // Set the content and play the video
        mPlayerView.setDataSource(path);
        mPlayerView.play();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPause() {
        super.onPause();
        mPlayerView.onPause();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        mPlayerView.onResume();
    }

    @Override
    public void finish() {
        super.finish();
        mPlayerView.finish();
    }
}
