I think you are creating too much expectations about android devices running ffmpeg tasks.
I dont know what you planning to do but by my personal experience benchmarking ffmpeg on android says you should not expect much than working with small media and not much processing... Android has very scrict limitations about memory for background process and it will probably cut you out at maximum 50mb (even lower depending of which device is running). plus your apks will grows with ffmpeg binaries and nobody likes to install an app which is listed on google play with 40mb, unless you know it is a good app and last but not least, if you are planning to encode: - you will likely get something around 1x if using fastest preset for any kind of video - using normal preset will reduce your encode speed to around 0.1x to 0.3x i've tested in some devices including samsung s8 im not trying to tell you is not going to work... just giving my personal experience because even if you used to ffmpeg, maybe on android devices google MediaCodec library will fit better to your needs without all aditional complication of cross-compiling On Sat, Jul 14, 2018 at 8:27 AM, Mohammed Bey Ahmed Khernache < [email protected]> wrote: > > The make it work, you need to have libSDL2 available. > libSDL2 must be installed on the host machine (where I am building), or on > the target machine (Android)? > > Is ffplay of any use to you on android?
