AndroidFFmpegLibrary

This project aims to create working library providing playing video files in android via ffmpeg libraries. With some effort and NDK knowledge you can use this ffmpeg libraries build to convert video files. We rather want to use ffmpeg library without modifications to facilitate updating of ffmpeg core.

Application screenshot

This project aim to simplify compilation of FFmpeg for android different architectures to one big apk file.

I'm afraid this project is not prepared for android beginners - build it and using it requires some NDK skills.
