Android & HarmonyOS Audio/Video SDK – Implement multimedia playback in just a few lines of code!

Simple integration, rich features, supports smartphones, car systems, TVs, TV boxes, smartwatches, and other devices.

I. Features & Highlights

• Basic media info retrieval (audio: sample rate, channels, duration; video: width, height, fps, duration)
• Supports almost all protocols: file, http, https, udp, rtmp, rtp, rtsp, byte[], etc.
• AV1 decoding support
• Playback modes: audio-only, video-only, or audio-video
• Software/hardware decoding configuration
• Seamless surface switching
• Multi-instance playback support
• Resume playback after EOF via seek
• Dynamic media switching
• Custom FFmpeg parameters
• byte[] data type support
• Encrypted audio/video playback
• Audio/video frame decoding
• Pitch and playback speed adjustment
• Transparent video playback (visual effects)
• Subtitle selection
• Built-in loop playback
• Connection timeout configuration
• Cache size settings (time-based)
• Audio track selection
• Custom audio sample rate
• Custom audio channel output
• Video screenshot capture
• Extract first frame or frame at specified time
• Custom video aspect ratio
• Video rotation (0°, 90°, 180°, 270°)
• Video mirroring modes
• Video background color (default: black)
• Multiple simultaneous surfaces rendering (e.g., KTV dual screens)
• Real-time PCM audio data retrieval
• Audio/video sync offset adjustment
• External OpenGL rendering (e.g., Unity, Cocos2d)

IV. Integration Guide

4.1 Android

4.1.1 Gradle

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}
    
dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.ywl5320:wlmedia:4.2.0'
}

4.1.2 Required Permissions

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

4.1.3 Configure NDK ABIs

defaultConfig {
    ...
    ndk {
        abiFilter("armeabi-v7a")
        abiFilter("arm64-v8a")
        abiFilter("x86")
        abiFilter("x86_64")
    }
    ...
}

4.1.4 Set Up Surface

<!-- WlSurfaceView for general playback -->
<com.ywl5320.wlmedia.widget.WlSurfaceView
    android:id="@+id/wlsurfaceview"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

<!-- WlTextureView for transparency, rotation, etc. -->
<com.ywl5320.wlmedia.widget.WlTextureView
    android:id="@+id/wltextureview"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

4.1.5 Basic Usage (See Full Demo)

// 1. Create player
WlPlayer wlPlayer = new WlPlayer();
wlPlayer.setOnMediaInfoListener(new WlOnMediaInfoListener() {
    @Override
    public void onPrepared() {
        wlPlayer.start(); // Start playback after preparation
    }

    @Override
    public void onTimeInfo(double currentTime, double bufferTime) {
        // Time progress callback
    }

    @Override
    public void onComplete(WlCompleteType type, String msg) {
        switch (type) {
            case WL_COMPLETE_EOF: // Normal EOF
            case WL_COMPLETE_ERROR: // Playback error (see msg)
            case WL_COMPLETE_HANDLE: // Stopped by wlPlayer.stop()
            case WL_COMPLETE_NEXT: // Media switched during playback
            case WL_COMPLETE_TIMEOUT: // Timeout
            case WL_COMPLETE_LOOP: // Loop restart
                break;
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onLoad(WlLoadStatus status, int progress, long speed) {
        switch (status) {
            case WL_LOADING_STATUS_START: // Loading started
            case WL_LOADING_STATUS_PROGRESS: // Loading progress
            case WL_LOADING_STATUS_FINISH: // Loading completed
                break;
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onSeekFinish() {
        // Seek completed
    }

    @Override
    public void onFirstFrameRendered() {
        // First frame rendered
    }
});

// 2. Bind WlSurfaceView to player
WlSurfaceView wlSurfaceView = findViewById(R.id.wlsurfaceview);
wlSurfaceView.setWlPlayer(wlPlayer);
wlSurfaceView.setClearLastVideoFrame(false); // Keep last frame
wlSurfaceView.setVideoScale(WlScaleType.WL_SCALE_FIT); // Scaling mode
wlSurfaceView.setVideoRotate(WlRotateType.WL_ROTATE_90); // Rotation
wlSurfaceView.setVideoMirror(WlMirrorType.WL_MIRROR_TOP_BOTTOM); // Mirroring

// 3. Set data source and prepare
wlPlayer.setSource(url);
wlPlayer.prepare();
