Android HW+ decoding problem

[lucky chou]

Maybe you have to build the SDK yourself using cerbero.
For some reasons, androidmedia has chosen to block non-google third-party
vendors's  HW decoder.

As noted in the comment,
gst-plugins-bad/sys/androidmedia/gstamc.c

static gboolean
scan_codecs (GstPlugin * plugin)
{
 ...
     /* FIXME: Non-Google codecs usually just don't work and hang forever
     * or crash when not used from a process that started the Java
     * VM via the non-public AndroidRuntime class. Can we somehow
     * initialize all this?
     */
       if (gst_amc_jni_is_vm_started () &&
       !g_str_has_prefix (name_str, "OMX.google.")) {
       GST_INFO ("Skipping non-Google codec '%s' in standalone mode",
name_str);
       valid_codec = FALSE;
       goto next_codec;
       }
   ...
｝  
Just annotate this piece of code, and then debug your HW  decoder to check
if it works. 
Good luck. --)
