The VideoLAN Forums

Hello, I am facing some issue using libvlc on Android (even the official VLC player give me the same issue) on my Android TV BOX Beelink GT1 s912 - Octa-Core
The video keep lagging every second :

Please see here a few second demostration:

How can this be solved ? Is there some settings or options i can try ? I almost try everything but without solving the issue.
Any ideas is accepted

Thank you

Nobody has an idea ?

Just few more information:

With a stream type like this the playback is laggy :

Program 1
Metadata:
service_name : Service01
service_provider: FFmpeg
Stream #0:0[0x100]: Video: h264 (Main) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p(progressive), 1280x720, 50 tbr, 90k tbn, 180k tbc
Stream #0:1[0x101]: Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 130 kb/s

But with a stream like this everything run smoothly:

Program 1
Metadata:
service_name : Service01
service_provider: FFmpeg
Stream #0:0[0x100]: Video: h264 (Constrained Baseline) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p(progressive), 1280x720 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 25 fps, 25 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc
Stream #0:1[0x101]: Audio: aac (LC) ([15][0][0][0] / 0x000F), 44100 Hz, stereo

do you think the stream is the cause of the problem ?

Logs?

Logs?

I will activate the log from vlc and send it.
Is there a way to save a verbose log from libvlc on android so i can also reproduce the problem and save the log on my test app ?

Thank you

Please help and let me knw if you see something interesting

As you can see you can also find the error i reported on another post :

Native thread exiting without having called DetachCurrentThread (maybe it's going to use a pthread_key_create destructor?): Thread[18,tid=16277,Native,Thread*=0xe0bf9200,peer=0x330900a0,"mediacodec_jni"]

Thank you

Any help ?

Hello!

--network-caching=400
--file-caching=400
--live-caching=400
--disc-caching=400
--sout-mux-caching=400

Could you replace 400 by 3000 ? Mediacodec, the hw decoder needs a long input cache.
If it's still not working, could you try without any LibVLC options ?
If it's still not better, could you send us the video sample ?

Hello I'll give it a try, by the way the log are from the vlc android application with the default option.
I will make some tests and send you the video sample as soon as possible.

Thank you !
