Can Android LibVLC play from a USB Camera?

Postby ThomasIndustry » 27 Jul 2017 21:44

I have seen a two step process on PC to show a live feed in VLC.
1) Create stream of USB input, and then
2) Play that stream

Step 2 is straight forward in libVLC, but can step one be done on Android?

Or can both steps be combined into a single step? I don't need the camera feed on the network, just played on the device connected to the USB

1) is not implemented in VLC/Android, but it is not hard to do.
