gStreamer on Android Studio 1.3

[Chuck Crisler]

I had a similar very difficult time getting started with GStreamer/Android
development. I just scanned the original email and the response, so I
didn't respond last night from home. I have a 'recipe' for making Android
projects using GStreamer that I will post tonight. However, I will
summarize here. I have only used Android Studio 1.2.2, not 1.3 yet.
According to everything I have read, 1.2.2 fully supports JNI (according to
several blog posts) yet it doesn't support it at all (according to google).
If that doesn't make any sense, welcome to Android development. Version 1.3
*MAY* provide better support, but don't count on it. Basically you need a
specific project file (can't remember the name or contents) with some
definitions with paths to the GStreamer libraries. You run the ndk-build
from Android Studio to build the project GStreamer libraries. It copies
everything to the right places, then you have to make some very minor edits
to complete the process, some required for JNI development. Sebastian Droge
has ported the GStreamer SDK examples (not part of GStreamer - go figure)
to work with 1.4.5 and the GStreamer/Android binaries.

Here is a link to provide some info.

Here is a link to a copy of tutorial 5. It seems to have most of the info.
This may help to give you an idea of how to proceed.

Tonight when I post complete/detailed instructions, I will also post the
link to Sebastian's examples.
