Android Server on H96 Pro + : No Transcoding And can't play video

[thelittlefireman 0]

Hi,

This is some logs from the android Server Emby on a H96 pro plus Android Tv Box.

 

I manage to install emby server, configure to read data from a smb server (a synology Nas).

 

1) when i try to play a tv serie (video is in mkv x265 HD) i get some error (see the logs). Try play from a pc and an android phone thought chrome browser.

 

2) I enable "Media codec transcoding" and check all the checkbox (h264, h265, enable decode/encode hardware) but i can't see some hardware acceleration args in the ffmpeg command

 

does ffmpeg is compile with : "--enable-decoder=h264_mediacodec --enable-mediacodec --enable-hwaccel=h264_mediacodec" ? (i just see --enable-mediacodec"

and why codec used is : "-codec:v:0 libx264" and not "-codec:v:0 h264_mediacodec" ?

Hi, the reason for this is that our android ffmpeg build does not yet have support for the smb protocol. It's something we'll look at adding in a future test build. Thanks.

Hi, thanks for your reply

 

i also make some test with a usb drive and it's fail to use hardware accelleration too on this sample : http://4kmedia.org/samsung-travel-with-my-pet-hdr-uhd-4k-demo/ 

LogFfmpeg.txtLog.txt

it works whith cpu decoder (as expexted it's very slow) and if i play it directly why a common video player it's works perfectly

It's "working" here, but it's just not going fast enough to be playable for you. What Emby app are you playing with?

[thelittlefireman 0]

It's "working" by transcoding though the cpu but why the hardware acceleration (media_codec) Fails ? My device is able to decode up to hevc 4K 60 fps.

[Luke 39319]

That's something we still need to work out. encoding with mediacodec is not very well documented. there is an h264_mediacodecndk library we've had some difficulty finding information on.

[thelittlefireman 0]

OKay thanks :) it's seems that there is new libavcodec versions (actual use 58.18.100 (28 fev 2018) ==> 58.19.102)

There is some interesting fix in the mediacodec_wrapper on libavcodec : https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commits/fe0a6bcbda0f51d0613dbbd42a7635c22530ce95/libavcodec/mediacodec_wrapper.c maybe it could help to fix some issue ?

If you need helps don't hesitate to ask :)

Thanks :)
