Video not centered in Android SurfaceView with --vout=android-display option

Postby TheNetStriker » 10 Mar 2020 00:48

I'm having a strange problem with libvlc version 3.2.5. I'm trying to set the correct aspect ratio by setting the option "--vout=android-display" and then handling the onNewVideoLayout event. Here is how I set the aspect ratio:

Code: Select all

@Override public void onNewVideoLayout(IVLCVout vlcVout, int width, int height, int visibleWidth, int visibleHeight, int sarNum, int sarDen) { if (PrefStore.getDebugmode(this)) Log.d(BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID, "onNewVideoLayout"); mVideoWidth = width; mVideoHeight = height; mVideoVisibleWidth = visibleWidth; mVideoVisibleHeight = visibleHeight; mVideoSarNum = sarNum; mVideoSarDen = sarDen; updateVideoSurfaces(); } private void updateVideoSurfaces() { CURRENT_SIZE = SURFACE_BEST_FIT; int sw = getWindow().getDecorView().getWidth(); int sh = getWindow().getDecorView().getHeight(); // sanity check if (sw * sh == 0) { Log.e(BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID, "Invalid surface size"); return; } vlcVout.setWindowSize(sw, sh); ViewGroup.LayoutParams lp = currentVideoSurfaceView.getLayoutParams(); if (mVideoWidth * mVideoHeight == 0) { /* Case of OpenGL vouts: handles the placement of the video using MediaPlayer API */ lp.width = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT; lp.height = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT; currentVideoSurfaceView.setLayoutParams(lp); changeMediaPlayerLayout(sw, sh); return; } if (lp.width == lp.height && lp.width == ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT) { /* We handle the placement of the video using Android View LayoutParams */ vlcPlayer.setAspectRatio(null); vlcPlayer.setScale(0); } double dw = sw, dh = sh; final boolean isPortrait = getResources().getConfiguration().orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT; if (sw > sh && isPortrait || sw < sh && !isPortrait) { dw = sh; dh = sw; } // compute the aspect ratio double ar, vw; if (mVideoSarDen == mVideoSarNum) { /* No indication about the density, assuming 1:1 */ vw = mVideoVisibleWidth; ar = (double)mVideoVisibleWidth / (double)mVideoVisibleHeight; } else { /* Use the specified aspect ratio */ vw = mVideoVisibleWidth * (double)mVideoSarNum / mVideoSarDen; ar = vw / mVideoVisibleHeight; } // compute the display aspect ratio double dar = dw / dh; if (ar > 1.3 && ar < 1.4) CURRENT_SIZE = SURFACE_4_3; else if (ar > 1.7 && ar < 1.8) CURRENT_SIZE = SURFACE_16_9; switch (CURRENT_SIZE) { case SURFACE_BEST_FIT: if (dar < ar) dh = dw / ar; else dw = dh * ar; break; case SURFACE_FIT_SCREEN: if (dar >= ar) dh = dw / ar; /* horizontal */ else dw = dh * ar; /* vertical */ break; case SURFACE_FILL: break; case SURFACE_16_9: ar = 16.0 / 9.0; if (dar < ar) dh = dw / ar; else dw = dh * ar; break; case SURFACE_4_3: ar = 4.0 / 3.0; if (dar < ar) dh = dw / ar; else dw = dh * ar; break; case SURFACE_ORIGINAL: dh = mVideoVisibleHeight; dw = vw; break; } // set display size lp.width = (int) Math.ceil(dw * mVideoWidth / mVideoVisibleWidth); lp.height = (int) Math.ceil(dh * mVideoHeight / mVideoVisibleHeight); currentVideoSurfaceView.setLayoutParams(lp); currentVideoSurfaceView.invalidate(); }
The result of this is that for the video is not centered in the SurfaceView. It cuts away some pixels at the left side and on the right side is a small black bar. (On some videos it also cuts away pixels at the top and adds the bar at the bottom) If I remove the -vout=android-display option no pixels are lost, but then the aspect ratio is not correct. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?
