How can I stream live video to Android (2.1 and higher), I have two links: m3u8
and f4m
(As I know, f4m is not supported).
From what I saw on stackoverflow, there is a way to stream m3u8 with vitamio (but the link is not working ).
Is there any other way to stream m3u8 video ? Maybe there is other format that I can use ?
Thanks.
Because no one answered my question, I will do it myself.
If you want to perform HLT (HTTP Live Stream) on Android 2.1 and higher you may use the vitamio library.
Site at: (http://www.vitamio.org/).
Here is code example: The main layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:paddingLeft="2px" android:paddingRight="2px"
android:paddingTop="2px" android:paddingBottom="2px"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical">
<io.vov.vitamio.widget.VideoView
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="@+id/VideoView">
</io.vov.vitamio.widget.VideoView>
</LinearLayout>
the Class:
import io.vov.vitamio.widget.MediaController;
import io.vov.vitamio.widget.VideoView;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class LiveStrimingTestActivity extends Activity{
VideoView videoView;
private void test_2(){
String httpLiveUrl = "http://aj.lsops.net/live/aljazeer_en_high.sdp/playlist.m3u8";
videoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.VideoView);
videoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse(httpLiveUrl));
MediaController mediaController = new MediaController(this);
videoView.setMediaController(mediaController);
videoView.requestFocus();
videoView.start();
}
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
test_2();
}
}
