Static vlc launch from command line on android

Postby jongerenchaos » 09 Oct 2012 21:22

I want to create a static vlc player from the android command line without playing the videofiles on the android screen . When i use http://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile i get a file that i can use incombination with eclipse (but i get no executeable static vlc file).

So, i want to transfer one vlc executable file by ssh (from my linux server) to the android device and execute them (by ssh), play a playlist (only on the commandline not on screen) and stream the video to another device (by a remote ssh console).

Exactly the same as the FFMpeg project: https://github.com/guardianproject/android-ffmpeg

How can i realize this?

Of course, VLC for Android is clearly an Android application...

Seeing as how Android supports none of the standard Linux sound servers (alsa, pulse nor oss), how are you going to hear anything? Somehow I think you would not enjoy playing something and not hearing or seeing anything.

I would make a Debian chroot (Google for it) and just install VLC desktop for ARM into it, it's not worth trying to link regular VLC to bionic.
