Android Video Transcoder

Surprisingly fast on device video transcoding.

Features

• extracting images from video either ffmpeg or mediacodec
• creating video from image either ffmpeg or mediacodec

How to install

MavenCentral

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'net.kibotu:android-ffmpeg-transcoder:{latest-version}'
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.kibotu:android-ffmpeg-transcoder:{latest-version}'
}

How to use FFMpeg Part

Extracting frames

FFMpegTranscoder.extractFramesFromVideo(
		context = application, 
		frameTimes = times, 
		inputVideo = inputVideo, 
		id = "12345", 
		outputDir = frameFolder
	)
	.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
	.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
	.subscribe(
	{ logv { "extract frames ${it.progress} ${it.message} ${(it.duration / 1000f).roundToInt()} s" } },
	{ logv { "extracting frames failed ${it.message}" }}, 
	{ logv { "extracting frames successfully completed" } }
)
.addTo(subscription)

Merging frames to create video

FFMpegTranscoder.createVideoFromFrames(
	context = application,
	frameFolder = frameFolder,
	outputUri = outputVideo,
	config = EncodingConfig(
	sourceFrameRate = 30 // every source image is a frame
	)
)
.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
.subscribe(
	{ logv { "merging frames ${it.progress} ${it.message} ${(it.duration / 1000f).roundToInt()} s" } },
	{ logv { "merging frames to create a video failed ${it.message}" }}, 
	{ logv { "video creation successfully completed" } }
)
.addTo(subscription)

How to use MediaCodec Part

Extracting frames

 MediaCodecTranscoder.extractFramesFromVideo(
	context = this,
	frameTimes = times,
	inputVideo = inputVideo,
	id = "loremipsum",
	outputDir = frameFolder,
	photoQuality = 100
    )
	.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
	.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
	.subscribe(
	    { logv { "extractFramesFromVideo progress $it" }},
	    { logv { "extracting frames failed ${it.message}" }}, 
	    { logv { "extracting frames successfully completed" }}
	).addTo(subscription)

Merging frames to create video

MediaCodecTranscoder.createVideoFromFrames(
	frameFolder = frameFolder,
	outputUri = outputVideo,
	deleteFramesOnComplete = true
    )
	.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
	.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
	.subscribe(
	    {logv { "createVideoFromFrames progress $it" }},
		{ logv { "merging frames to create a video failed ${it.message}" }}, 
		{ logv { "video creation successfully completed" } }
	).addTo(subscription)
