Hi,

I am attempting to play an AVI using libVLC for Android on a Chromecast device. I can cast MP4 files to the device without a problem, but the AVI file fails with the following errors surrounding stream output and codecs:

libvlc stream out: can't remux audio track 1 codec mpga
libvlc stream out: can't remux video track 0 codec mp4v
libvlc decoder: cannot continue streaming due to errors with codec mpga
libvlc decoder: cannot continue streaming due to errors with codec mp4v
libvlc demux: cannot get packet header, track disabled

The full pastebin of the logs is available here: https://pastebin.com/R6gVDnCW

I'm also able to stream the same AVI file with the official VLC app for Android without a problem.

Is it possible the build I'm using doesn't have the correct codecs enabled? I'm trying to use the following build: https://github.com/butterproject/vlc-android-sdk. I've been trying to build libVLC myself (rather than use someone else's build), but haven't had success.

If someone could help me understand these errors and how I can resolve them, it'd be greatly appreciated :]!

How are you using the chromecast?

I'm running my project (v3 branch) on an emulated and physical device: https://github.com/masterwok/simple-vlc-player.

I was trying to leverage this project here: https://github.com/butterproject/vlc-android-sdk as a quick way of getting libVLC into my project (to temporarily avoid taking the time to build libVLC myself). I was only ever able to get MP4 to cast successfully using this project. My best guess as to why it didn't work was because something wasn't enabled. I've since moved on to trying to build libVLC myself to see if that is actually the case. Hopefully I can determine this soon, I've yet to get libprotobuf to behave while compiling.

Okay, I've made some progress. I was able to compile libVLC myself and the issue persists. This problem occurs when using a network stream or when using a FileDescriptor to create a Media instance. Also, playing a network stream using VLC for Android and casting to a Chromecast device fails with the same codec errors in the logs.

How should a URI with a content scheme ("content://..") be provided if FileDescriptor results in a failure to convert the media? For example, Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT returns a URI in the activity result with a content schema. If the content schema can't be used, does this mean that only File instances support conversion?

So maybe I was mistaken with the content schema? It seems I'm also getting the codec issues when using an absolute path. I'm kind of stuck as to why this is happening. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
