# Android tutorial 3: Video
|
||
|
||
# Goal ![](attachments/thumbnails/2687065/2654413)
|
||
|
||
Except for [Basic tutorial 5: GUI toolkit
|
||
integration](Basic%2Btutorial%2B5%253A%2BGUI%2Btoolkit%2Bintegration.html),
|
||
which embedded a video window on a GTK application, all tutorials so far
|
||
relied on GStreamer video sinks to create a window to display their
|
||
contents. The video sink on Android is not capable of creating its own
|
||
window, so a drawing surface always needs to be provided. This tutorial
|
||
shows:
|
||
|
||
- How to allocate a drawing surface on the Android layout and pass it
|
||
to GStreamer
|
||
- How to keep GStreamer posted on changes to the surface
|
||
|
||
# Introduction
|
||
|
||
Since Android does not provide a windowing system, a GStreamer video
|
||
sink cannot create pop-up windows as it would do on a Desktop platform.
|
||
Fortunately, the `XOverlay` interface allows providing video sinks with
|
||
an already created window onto which they can draw, as we have seen in
|
||
[Basic tutorial 5: GUI toolkit
|
||
integration](Basic%2Btutorial%2B5%253A%2BGUI%2Btoolkit%2Bintegration.html).
|
||
|
||
In this tutorial, a
|
||
[SurfaceView](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceView.html)
|
||
widget (actually, a subclass of it) is placed on the main layout. When
|
||
Android informs the application that a surface has been created for this
|
||
widget, we pass it to the C code which stores it. The
|
||
`check_initialization_complete()` method explained in the previous
|
||
tutorial is extended so that GStreamer is not considered initialized
|
||
until a main loop is running and a drawing surface has been received.

|
||
Log.d("GStreamer", "Surface destroyed");

nativeSurfaceFinalize ();

|
||
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This tutorial continues where the previous one left, adding a video
|
||
surface to the layout and changing the GStreamer pipeline to produce
|
||
video instead of audio. Only the parts of the code that are new will be
|
||
discussed.
|
||
|
||
``` java
|
||
private native void nativeSurfaceInit(Object surface);
|
||
private native void nativeSurfaceFinalize();
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Two new entry points to the C code are defined,
|
||
`nativeSurfaceInit()` and `nativeSurfaceFinalize()`, which we will call
|
||
when the video surface becomes available and when it is about to be
|
||
destroyed, respectively.
|
||
|
||
``` java
|
||
SurfaceView sv = (SurfaceView) this.findViewById(R.id.surface_video);
|
||
SurfaceHolder sh = sv.getHolder();
|
||
sh.addCallback(this);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In `onCreate()`, we retrieve the
|
||
[SurfaceView](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceView.html),
|
||
and then register ourselves to receive notifications about the surface
|
||
state through the
|
||
[SurfaceHolder](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceHolder.html)
|
||
interface. This is why we declared this Activity as implementing the
|
||
[SurfaceHolder.Callback](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceHolder.Callback.html)
|
||
interface in line 16.
|
||
|
||
``` java
|
||
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width,
|
||
int height) {
|
||
Log.d("GStreamer", "Surface changed to format " + format + " width "
|
||
+ width + " height " + height);
|
||
nativeSurfaceInit (holder.getSurface());
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
|
||
Log.d("GStreamer", "Surface created: " + holder.getSurface());
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {
|
||
Log.d("GStreamer", "Surface destroyed");
|
||
nativeSurfaceFinalize ();
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This interface is composed of the three methods above, which get called
|
||
when the geometry of the surface changes, when the surface is created
|
||
and when it is about to be destroyed. `surfaceChanged()` always gets
|
||
called at least once, right after `surfaceCreated()`, so we will use it
|
||
to notify GStreamer about the new surface. We use
|
||
`surfaceDestroyed()` to tell GStreamer to stop using this surface.
|
||
|
||
Let’s review the C code to see what these functions do.

```
|
||
|
||
First, our `CustomData` structure is augmented to keep a pointer to the
|
||
video sink element and the native window
|
||
handle:
|
||
|
||
``` c
|
||
GstElement *video_sink; /* The video sink element which receives XOverlay commands */
|
||
ANativeWindow *native_window; /* The Android native window where video will be rendered */
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The `check_initialization_complete()` method is also augmented so that
|
||
it requires a native window before considering GStreamer to be
|
||
initialized:
|
||
|
||
``` c
|
||
static void check_initialization_complete (CustomData *data) {
|
||
JNIEnv *env = get_jni_env ();
|
||
if (!data->initialized && data->native_window && data->main_loop) {
|
||
GST_DEBUG ("Initialization complete, notifying application. native_window:%p main_loop:%p", data->native_window, data->main_loop);
|
||
|
||
/* The main loop is running and we received a native window, inform the sink about it */
|
||
gst_x_overlay_set_window_handle (GST_X_OVERLAY (data->video_sink), (guintptr)data->native_window);
|
||
|
||
(*env)->CallVoidMethod (env, data->app, on_gstreamer_initialized_method_id);
|
||
if ((*env)->ExceptionCheck (env)) {
|
||
GST_ERROR ("Failed to call Java method");
|
||
(*env)->ExceptionClear (env);
|
||
}
|
||
data->initialized = TRUE;
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Also, once the pipeline has been built and a native window has been
|
||
received, we inform the video sink of the window handle to use via the
|
||
`gst_x_overlay_set_window_handle()` method.
|
||
|
||
The GStreamer pipeline for this tutorial involves a `videotestsrc`, a
|
||
`warptv` psychedelic distorter effect (check out other cool video
|
||
effects in the `GSTREAMER_PLUGINS_EFFECTS` package), and an
|
||
`autovideosink` which will instantiate the adequate video sink for the
|
||
platform:
|
||
|
||
``` c
|
||
data->pipeline = gst_parse_launch("videotestsrc ! warptv ! ffmpegcolorspace ! autovideosink ", &error);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Here things start to get more
|
||
interesting:
|
||
|
||
``` c
|
||
/* Set the pipeline to READY, so it can already accept a window handle, if we have one */
|
||
gst_element_set_state(data->pipeline, GST_STATE_READY);
|
||
|
||
data->video_sink = gst_bin_get_by_interface(GST_BIN(data->pipeline), GST_TYPE_X_OVERLAY);
|
||
if (!data->video_sink) {
|
||
GST_ERROR ("Could not retrieve video sink");
|
||
return NULL;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
We start by setting the pipeline to the READY state. No data flow occurs
|
||
yet, but the `autovideosink` will instantiate the actual sink so we can
|
||
ask for it immediately.
|
||
|
||
The `gst_bin_get_by_interface()` method will examine the whole pipeline
|
||
and return a pointer to an element which supports the requested
|
||
interface. We are asking for the `XOverlay` interface, explained in
|
||
[Basic tutorial 5: GUI toolkit
|
||
integration](Basic%2Btutorial%2B5%253A%2BGUI%2Btoolkit%2Bintegration.html),
|
||
which controls how to perform rendering into foreign (non-GStreamer)
|
||
windows. The internal video sink instantiated by `autovideosink` is the
|
||
only element in this pipeline implementing it, so it will be returned.
|
||
|
||
Now we will implement the two native functions called by the Java code
|
||
when the drawing surface becomes available or is about to be
|
||
destroyed:
|
||
|
||
``` c
|
||
static void gst_native_surface_init (JNIEnv *env, jobject thiz, jobject surface) {
|
||
CustomData *data = GET_CUSTOM_DATA (env, thiz, custom_data_field_id);
|
||
if (!data) return;
|
||
ANativeWindow *new_native_window = ANativeWindow_fromSurface(env, surface);
|
||
GST_DEBUG ("Received surface %p (native window %p)", surface, new_native_window);
|
||
|
||
if (data->native_window) {
|
||
ANativeWindow_release (data->native_window);
|
||
if (data->native_window == new_native_window) {
|
||
GST_DEBUG ("New native window is the same as the previous one", data->native_window);
|
||
if (data->video_sink) {
|
||
gst_x_overlay_expose(GST_X_OVERLAY (data->video_sink));
|
||
gst_x_overlay_expose(GST_X_OVERLAY (data->video_sink));
|
||
}
|
||
return;
|
||
} else {
|
||
GST_DEBUG ("Released previous native window %p", data->native_window);
|
||
data->initialized = FALSE;
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
data->native_window = new_native_window;
|
||
|
||
check_initialization_complete (data);
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This method is responsible for providing the video sink with the window
|
||
handle coming from the Java code. We are passed a
|
||
[Surface](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/Surface.html)
|
||
object, and we use `ANativeWindow_fromSurface()` to obtain the
|
||
underlying native window pointer. There is no official online
|
||
documentation for the NDK, but fortunately the header files are well
|
||
commented. Native window management functions can be found in
|
||
`$(ANDROID_NDK_ROOT)\platforms\android-9\arch-arm\usr\include\android\native_window.h` and `native_window_jni.h`
|
||
|
||
If we had already stored a native window, the one we just received can
|
||
either be a new one, or just an update of the one we have. If the
|
||
pointers are the same, we assume the geometry of the surface has
|
||
changed, and simply instruct the video sink to redraw itself, via the
|
||
`gst_x_overlay_expose()` method. The video sink will recover the new
|
||
size from the surface itself, so we do not need to bother about it
|
||
here. We need to call `gst_x_overlay_expose()` twice because of the way
|
||
the surface changes propagate down the OpenGL ES / EGL pipeline (The
|
||
only video sink available for Android in the GStreamer SDK uses OpenGL
|
||
ES). By the time we call the first expose, the surface that the sink
|
||
will pick up still contains the old size.
|
||
|
||
On the other hand, if the pointers are different, we mark GStreamer as
|
||
not being initialized. Next time we call
|
||
`check_initialization_complete()`, the video sink will be informed of
|
||
the new window handle.
|
||
|
||
We finally store the new window handle and call
|
||
`check_initialization_complete()` to inform the Java code that
|
||
everything is set up, if that is the case.
|
||
|
||
``` c
|
||
static void gst_native_surface_finalize (JNIEnv *env, jobject thiz) {
|
||
CustomData *data = GET_CUSTOM_DATA (env, thiz, custom_data_field_id);
|
||
if (!data) return;
|
||
GST_DEBUG ("Releasing Native Window %p", data->native_window);
|
||
|
||
if (data->video_sink) {
|
||
gst_x_overlay_set_window_handle (GST_X_OVERLAY (data->video_sink), (guintptr)NULL);
|
||
gst_element_set_state (data->pipeline, GST_STATE_READY);
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
ANativeWindow_release (data->native_window);
|
||
data->native_window = NULL;
|
||
data->initialized = FALSE;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The complementary function, `gst_native_surface_finalize()` is called
|
||
when a surface is about to be destroyed and should not be used anymore.
|
||
Here, we simply instruct the video sink to stop using the window handle
|
||
and set the pipeline to READY so no rendering occurs. We release the
|
||
window pointer we had stored with `ANativeWindow_release()`, and mark
|
||
GStreamer as not being initialized anymore.
|
||
|
||
And this is all there is to it, regarding the main code. Only a couple
|
||
of details remain, the subclass we made for SurfaceView and the
|
||
`Android.mk` file.
|
||
|
||
# GStreamerSurfaceView, a convenient SurfaceView wrapper \[Java code\]
|
||
|
||
By default,
|
||
[SurfaceView](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceView.html) does
|
||
not have any particular size, so it expands to use all the space the
|
||
layout can give it. While this might be convenient sometimes, it does
|
||
not allow a great deal of control. In particular, when the surface does
|
||
not have the same aspect ratio as the media, the sink will add black
|
||
borders (the known “letterbox” or “pillarbox” effect), which is an
|
||
unnecessary work (and a waste of battery).
|
||
|
||
The subclass of
|
||
[SurfaceView](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceView.html) presented
|
||
here overrides the
|
||
[onMeasure()](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/SurfaceView.html#onMeasure\(int,%20int\)) method
|
||
to report the actual media size, so the surface can adapt to any layout
|
||
while preserving the media aspect ratio.
|
||
|
||
Since in this tutorial the media size is known beforehand, it is
|
||
hardcoded in the GStreamerSurfaceView class for simplicity. The next
|
||
tutorial shows how it can be recovered at runtime and passed onto the
|
||
surface.

packages: `GSTREAMER_PLUGINS_SYS` for the system-dependent video sink
|
||
and `GSTREAMER_PLUGINS_EFFECTS` for the `warptv` element. This tutorial
|
||
requires the `gstreamer-interfaces` library to use the
|
||
`XOverlay` interface, and the `gstreamer-video` library to use the
|
||
video helper methods.
