libstlport_shared.so not found on Nexus 6p

[Excape]

When I click on a stream on my Nexus 6p (except via chromecast), the app crashes with the following exception:

I couldn't replicate this with any Nexus 6p emulator, no matter what Android version. It just occurs on my physical device. It's a Nexus 6p with Android 7.0.1, original Google image.

My guess is some hardware thing, maybe the cpu architecture is not supported?

[RenAigu]

Previously fixed the same or similar issue on my device (Oneplus One then running 7.0) in this commit: https://github.com/chatrealm/DctvAndroid/pull/10/commits/d705719e270631025ac8e540fd8c26ed3e074a77

Reverting to original code gives me the error again on CM 14.1 (7.1)

[Excape]

@RenAigu I tried reverting d705719 too, but I get the same error

[kevbob1]

https://www.vitamio.org/en/docs/FAQ/2013/0509/14.html

Most likely hardware or could be incorrect install of Vitamio library. I also got a report that the latest DCTV version crashes on 'Google Pixel running Android 7.1'. Which seems to have a similar CPU to Nexus 6P.

[kevbob1]

I can reproduce in android emulator, here is my virtual device image used:

Nougat , arm64-v8a, Android 7.0 (with Google APIs)

takes forever to start, but eventually i get identical error message launching video.

[RenAigu]

Found a possible solution, based on https://github.com/yixia/VitamioBundle/issues/305

@Excape can you try the latest commit? (6f07908ab88e0484f374fad4d4710e0f8d3d7b94)

[Excape]

@RenAigu YES! It works! :tada:

Although I'm not sure what this line does: android.useDeprecatedNdk=true

It works on my phone without this line..

This seems to be a general fix for 64bit devices. Would be great to test it on a Google Pixel.

What does this mean for #17 then? When this works correctly, I see no point in switching libraries

[kevbob1]

My vote is we keep #17 but maybe don't implement right away. Since Vitamio support is near non-existent, I fear this won't be the last problem we will see where we won't get any upstream support. also, what happens when android tools drops support for depercated ndk?

[Excape]

Good point, ijkplayer is in active development

In my tests useDeprecatedNdk is not necessary, but I don't know how @RenAigu sees this

[RenAigu]

@kevbob1 Agree. However Ijkplayer doesn't really seem as easy to implement as I thought earlier, or at least I can't figure out how to do it easily with the limited documentation. It seems for instance that you need to build a VideoView implementation yourself, or build it from a git clone in as a convoluted way a I imagine Vitamio is to get it to work.

@Excape I also don;t know how I see this ;) Based it on this comment: https://github.com/yixia/VitamioBundle/issues/305#issuecomment-138062182

From what I understand it's just a setting for the gradle builder and doesn't seem to affect the eventual app. I'd it can be removed then

[Excape]

The usDeprecatedNdk seems to come from a comment from this answer and applies to an older version of ndk / gradle plugin. But yeah, probably no impact on the APK itself

[RenAigu]

well I'll push out my first build to the store then, before any more disappointed reviews come in. 😎

[kevbob1]

I've been chatting w/ that top 1-star reviewer via Twitter. He's the one w/ the Google Pixel. I will do my best to persuade him to bump it to 5-star. ;)
