VLCMedia - playback from NSData / Bytes or NSPipe

[a4tech]

Hello all,

I am trying to find a solution or implement it for VLC to get playback from the PIPE FILE.

In Android We are able to do it using FileDescription and then We can fill it up and use.

In iOS We have jsut 2 methods:

[VLCMedia mediaWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://streams.videolan.org/streams/mp4 ... 64_aac.mp4"]];

[VLCMedia mediaWithPath];

Any suggestion ? How to get playback from NSData / Bytes[] / NSPipe ?

Thanks

Use initWIthStream: https://videolan.videolan.me/VLCKit/int ... 2fdb2bb71a

It does not support that method on the

pod 'MobileVLCKit', '4.0.0a1'

Any other suggestion ?

The app is for iOS.

It looks VLCMedia.m does not deliver public method for that

https://code.videolan.org/videolan/VLCK ... VLCMedia.m

Perhaps it need to add method for that

Code: Select all

+ (instancetype)mediaWithStream:(NSInputStream *)aStream; { return [[VLCMedia alloc] initWithStream:aStream]; }

Use version 3.5.1 and not some unfinished alpha build. Then, the symbol will be there

Please take a look by Yourself.

We are not able to use method to initWithStream

Available:

Code: Select all

+ (instancetype)mediaWithURL:(NSURL *)anURL; { return [[VLCMedia alloc] initWithURL:anURL]; } + (instancetype)mediaWithPath:(NSString *)aPath; { return [[VLCMedia alloc] initWithPath:aPath]; } + (instancetype)mediaAsNodeWithName:(NSString *)aName; { return [[VLCMedia alloc] initAsNodeWithName:aName]; }

What is stopping you from using initWithStream?

I figure out the issue and now it plays well.
