Until now we only did the "receive stream" part of the application, not yet the "send it to a server", and we did not need to deal with jni for it, as we are using the videoview/mediaplayer APIs. The videos that we used in our tests were from rtsp live streaming links that we found on the internet. What we are asking here is why does VLC show the same part of the video 2 to 10 seconds earlier than our Android application shows it, and why the other existing live streaming applications for Android that we found also have this delay.
