Is there any callback that tells if streaming has started?

[ghost]

Hi,

I am using libstreaming to stream my camera feed from Android phone to Wowza media server. Currently, I am calling the startStream method to start the stream.

Is there any method or callback that indicates that streaming has begun?

Thanks!

Are you using MODE_MEDIACODEC_API or MODE_MEDIARECORDER_API ?

If you are using MODE_MEDIACODEC_API, then you can check if you are getting the onPreviewFrame callbacks defined in encodeWithMediaCodecMethod1().

If you are using MODE_MEDIARECORDER_API mode, then it is a bit involved since the frames from camera dont actually come to the app layer(it is directly rendered on the surface provided to native layers).

• If you have the luxury of logging the android framework, you could add a log inside camera HAL layer or camera Service layer to check if you are getting preview callbacks or not.
• If that is not an option, you would have to check in the send() function of XXXPacketizer.java file to check if you are getting encoded packets or not.

Thanks! I will try this and let your know. BTW, I am using the MODE_MEDIACODEC_API
