Support for Android 10 by 1nikolas · Pull Request #361 · cropsly/ffmpeg-android-java

1nikolas · 2020-07-04T14:55:39Z

Based on this post.
Moved ffmpeg binary to the libs folder and added android:extractNativeLibs = "true" to the manifest so it can copy itself into /data/app/{package_name}/lib/{arch}/ and then execute it from there (which is supported on Android 10).
The x86 binary doesn't work on Android 6+, and that's a separate bug (see here and here)

Fixes#343
Fixes#355
Fixes#360

Hi @1nikolas,

Thanks you for coming out with an approach to fix it. I came across this issue today and saw your PR. I felt that this would work and this should've worked. But I am getting following error when I try this with Android 10:

CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE "/data/app/com.my.app.debug-YuYsFFp_DMmblCEyt_UMBw==/lib/x86/libffmpeg.so": "/data/app/com.short.videos.debug-YuYsFFp_DMmblCEyt_UMBw==/lib/x86/libffmpeg.so" has text relocations (https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bionic/+/master/android-changes-for-ndk-developers.md#Text-Relocations-Enforced-for-API-level-23)

I tried it on an Emulator running Android 10. After researching, it seems that FFMpeg and Google both have refused to fix this Text relocations issue.

I just forked the library from your repo and imported it. Then gave a try. Am I doing something wrong?

Also, before it used to work on Android < 10. But now it's throwing the error in those versions as well:

 java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/data/app/com.my.app.debug-TXqL44hB_UvrunVGGIUrFQ==/lib/arm/libffmpeg.so": error=2, No such file or directory

Looking forward to your response.

The emulator uses by default x86 architecture and it doesnt work on x86 on Android 6+ that way (as I already mentioned). As for the other error, you have to add these on your app build.gradle (so it forces arm64 devices to use the arm binary and x86_64 to use the x86 one)

 buildTypes {
release {
[...]
ndk {
abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"
}
}
debug {
ndk {
abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"

}
}

sidhuparas · 2020-07-10T11:42:22Z

@1nikolas Thanks for the quick reply. I tried your suggestion and it worked for Android < 10. But when I tested it on Android 10, it gave me a long error (couldn't see full error). I know that to resolve the issue, I should provide that error but there came some fault in the device and I am fixing it. As soon as it goes up, I will post the trace here. Thank you for the time.

Ahmed-Basalib10 · 2020-07-14T17:24:30Z

@1nikolas what did u mean by ffmpeg binary ?

1nikolas · 2020-07-14T17:50:17Z

@1nikolas what did u mean by ffmpeg binary ?

Pre build ffmpeg executables for each cpu architecture. This libary uses those to run ffmpeg (on the current commit its on the assets folder and on my commit its on the libs folder)

SundaramKrishna · 2020-07-16T10:15:58Z

this fix will be released ? or i have to pull from @1nikolas repository

Its working fine but unable to upload app on play store
getting issue This release is not compliant with the Google Play 64-bit requirement but after applying
ndk {
abiFilters 'armeabi-v7a','arm64-v8a','x86','x86_64'
}
play store allowing to publish but it's unable to load binary its always failing

Okay this is a problem I didn't predict. A workaround for this would be to keep the abifilters as you mentioned and copy libffmpeg.so from libs/x86 to libs/x86_64 and libffmpeg.so from libs/arm to libs/arm64. But this will make the apk size larger as it would have the library 4 times inside the apk.

Anyway to everyone reading this, this PR is a workaround and doesnt work 100% because this library is super old. Just use a newer ffmpeg library (which uses ndk) instead of trying to fix this one. Its not worth the time.

sidhuparas · 2020-07-20T02:45:04Z

@1nikolas Can you recommend a "newer ffmpeg library"? For some strange reason, I still can't get hold of my Android 10 phone. I will be looking to implement your fix otherwise I might go for a newer library.

There are many libs but this seems to be the most popular. You can google "ffmpeg android github" to find more .

sidhuparas · 2020-07-26T15:40:01Z

@1nikolas Well, thank you. I migrated to that library's LTS support (for which min SDK is 21) and it's working perfectly on Android 10. Thank you! 🎉

HungTDO · 2020-07-27T09:07:50Z

When I'm applied your code into my project, then I run project always recieved error: "ava.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/data/app/com.abc.xxx-eFkeAFz_FIOZAFRtph32mw==/lib/arm/libffmpeg.so": error=2, No such file or directory"?

@1nikolas Well, thank you. I migrated to that library's LTS support (for which min SDK is 21) and it's working perfectly on Android 10. Thank you! 🎉

Can you explain how did you do that ?

sidhuparas · 2020-07-31T05:39:47Z

@Ahmed715 Just go to this repo. Find the gradle dependency to add. Just remember you need to use 4.3.1.LTS in the end instead of 4.3.2 if your project has minSDK as 21. The API's are similar. Directly using there are no callbacks and the code is synchronous so you need to manage multithreading on your own. I used Coroutines to achieve that. Check section 2.2 here.

Hi, @1nikolas Can you show me what the folders look like after copying?

It's unable to load binary. It's always failing

1nikolas · 2020-08-24T09:59:45Z

@godhiepnt they way you did it, it should work. Whats the error? The file isn't copied in the app data libs?

godhiepnt · 2020-08-24T10:12:13Z

@godhiepnt did you add these to your gradle?

 buildTypes {
release {
[...]
ndk {
abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"
}
}
debug {
ndk {
abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"
}
}
}

Yes. If in buildTypes , abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86" it works great . But abiFilters 'armeabi-v7a','arm64-v8a','x86','x86_64' error :
E/FFmpeg: Exception while trying to run: [Ljava.lang.String;@2526a
java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/data/app/g3.videoeditor.videomakerwithmusic-bmB3e7UAy_hXWwAJ9h4Qrg==/lib/arm/libffmpeg.so": error=2, No such file or directory

Can you help me understand better?

1nikolas · 2020-08-24T10:24:32Z

@godhiepnt try using these two abi filters only abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86" and delete arm64 and x86_64 folders in libs. This should make it work on all 4 archs

godhiepnt · 2020-08-25T01:48:34Z

@godhiepnt try using these two abi filters only abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86" and delete arm64 and x86_64 folders in libs. This should make it work on all 4 archs

This release is not compliant with the Google Play 64-bit requirement.
The following APKs or App Bundles are available to 64-bit devices, but they only have 32-bit native code:
Include 64-bit and 32-bit native code in your app. Use the Android App Bundle publishing format to automatically ensure that each device architecture receives only the native code it needs. This avoids increasing the overall size of your app.

@1nikolas Can you help me fix it?

1nikolas · 2020-08-25T09:26:42Z

@godhiepnt you have to copy contents of arm to arm64 and cotents of x86 to x86_64. And then you have to modify some code (on FileUtils.java line 59 you have to add 2 more else ifs according on how arch folders are named)

krushnarathod · 2020-08-27T09:48:28Z

solution work in debug mode , but when we generate sign apk ,through as error #360 java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/data/app/com.test.maker--dN1llxm8vYjyFIC4I3iHA==/lib//libffmpeg.so": error=2, No such file or directory

If you use "armeabi-v7a", "x86" you have to add them in debug too. See the first comments

krushnarathod · 2020-08-28T09:13:10Z

is there any solution for arm64-v8a x86_64 because when we fetch ffmpeg from lib folder it wont detect .so file, Through file not exist error.

Yes added it work fine with that. but using this it exclude arm64-v8a x86_64 , so there is no 64 bit arch. according to new google play policy apps published on Google Play will need to support 64-bit architectures

Okay then remove these I mentioned and copy x86 files in the x86_64 folder and arm files to arm64 folder (I dont remember the exact folder names)

static String getFFmpeg(Context context) {
String archFolder = "";
if (CpuArchHelper.getCpuArch() == CpuArch.x86){
archFolder = "x86";
} else if (CpuArchHelper.getCpuArch() == CpuArch.ARMv7){
archFolder = "arm";
}
return context.getApplicationInfo().nativeLibraryDir + "/" + ffmpegFileName;

// return context.getPackageResourcePath().replaceAll("/([^/]+)$", "/lib/") + archFolder + "/" + ffmpegFileName;
}

Changed in FileUtils.java class and it works

Udhayarajan · 2021-03-30T08:03:15Z

Thanks for modifying this. By the way , How to add your commit in build,gradle like

implementation 'com.github.1nikolas:ffmpeg-android-java:master-SNAPSHOT'

is this correct? Another question will it works on Android 11 and Upcoming android 12?

Library is very big, but you can generate that you need. And use apk split also.

splits {

enable true
reset()

@Udhayarajan you have to go to my profile, download my fork and import it manually to your project. But I haven't tested it with android 11 and 12. If you are going to upload your app on Playstore, just use mobile-ffmpeg with split apks.

What Android are you on? It's only tested on Android 10. Also did you add android:extractNativeLibs = "true" to your manifest?

Already add android:extractNativeLibs = "true" in the manifest
