How to achive more than one playing videos in one screen

Postby rowa » 30 Sep 2014 07:07

To show more than one videos in a screen of an android pad, may be a good idea,
I've tried to modify the java code of VLCandroid version, make the singleton of VLC object to non-singleton,
and create more than one instances in a screen to play more video urls,
but when I run it, do not goes out what I want, the video frames of each view are disorder and alternate,
I'm seeking for the reason, and try to handle it, is there anyone knows why,
and what's the general idea to achive the multi-video playing in one screen?
thanks.

Hi, I have a initial working version that supports multiple videos. Is there a possibility to initiate a branch from the main trunk to add this functionality and people can work on that as well ?
Thank you

I think that some people are already working on that.

I think you are referring to me. I've made a few patches already to allow multiple videos. I was wondering if you could start a new branch so we could focus in the development of this functionality.
Thank you

I don't think a new branch is needed.

Hi, I've created 2 patches to allow multiple videos to play with libvlc for Android. You can check them at https://github.com/coderReview/Android-VLC-Patches. They are still under development.
I still haven't test with hardware accelaration. Any help with that is more than welcome.
Thank you.
