.CH format support? #268

Closed erkand-imeri closed 8 years ago

erkand-imeri commented 8 years ago

I can't play livestreaming links generated through Xtream Codec that have the extension of .ch and apparently they are of the format h264.

Also, how can i make the EmVideoView fullscreen?

Thanks in advance.

brianwernick commented 8 years ago

The .ch file extension is unsupported, you can look at the ExoPlayers supported formats which will be the same for ExoMedia.

As far as fullscreen goes, see the demo app and #119

I can play .ch file extension with Videoview not with ExoMedia/ExoPlayer?

Can i call the Videoview when the lin is with .ch extension and the others with ExoMedia?

brianwernick commented 8 years ago

Not currently (3.1.0 should allow something similar based on the DRM changes).

My questions are

  1. What format does ".ch" actually represent?
  2. Why can't you use a more standardized format?
erkand-imeri commented 8 years ago

.ch represent the h264 format.

Just a question, for the full screen video should i take as example the code from FullScreenVideoPlayerActivity.java?

brianwernick commented 8 years ago

H.264 is typically wrapped in the .mp4 container (MPEG-4 AVC). What I was meaning is, what does the ".ch" container represent?

erkand-imeri commented 8 years ago

I have no idea precisely what does the .ch represent, i just know that it's an extension generated by Xstream Codes Panel, what renderbuilder represents the .mp4, should i declare the renderbuilder in this case? Would it work?

Also, i don't really understand how can make the emvideview to scale fullsize some videos. Any tips?

brianwernick commented 8 years ago

The RenderBuilder class is what handles most of the formats (all non-streaming formats) and is used as the fallback if the extension is unknown. This means that specifying the RenderBuilder manually won't help in your situation. I would modify the output format the Xstream is exporting.

What do you mean "scale fullsize"? Are you looking for FIT_CENTER, CENTER_INSIDE, or something else?

erkand-imeri commented 8 years ago

Well, i mean that, the video resolution of the http livestream is smaller than the TV screen, and i need to adjust the aspect ratio of the video so it can fit the fullscreen.

brianwernick commented 8 years ago

By default the video will be scaled to fit the container (keeping the aspect ratio), If it isn't matching the screen size make sure you have specified match_parent for the videoViews height and width

erkand-imeri commented 8 years ago

I do have that brian, but it doesn't fit.

Compare what you have with the Demo app since I know that works as I have described.
