Android Surface Video is stretched

+2 votes
260 views

I have created surface in android Java and mentioned its width and height as below.

 android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"

I'm rendering from native to the surface.

My decoded video dimension is w x h (less than surface layout size). When i render the yuv frames in native, video is filled complete area of the surface (video is stretched). I want to control the rendering area (it must be w x h). I tried with native_window_set_buffers_geometry and native_window_set_crop APIs. But still video is rendered will full area of surface.

I have used NATIVE_WINDOW_SCALING_MODE_SCALE_TO_WINDOW option.

Please help me.

Stream/broadcast video from android

I want to let other nearby android users stream (via bluetooth or wifi) the video that I broadcast or transmit from my android device. In fact I would like to know if there is any direct option to stream the screen as video directly. Right now, I am storing the screen as video and want to stream it.

Adding video playback support with software codecs and software opengl in android

I am trying to get video playback running on our board which does not have mali support (HW accelerated graphics). Before adding hardware codec, I was trying to get it working with software omx codecs.
What is the procedure for this? Do we have to add YUV support in default gralloc and software opengl library? If not, do we have to convert YUV to RGB in stagefright? how can I do that? Is there any document for it?
