[fishwolf]

What is the best and simple solution in b4a for play a stream rtsp in mjpg format?

i'm using a sport cam, like sj4000

i search on forum, but are old threads.
i have tried wit VideoView, but doesn't work.

Thanks

    vvv.Initialize("vvv")
    Activity.AddView(vvv,0,0,Activity.Width,Activity.Height)
    vvv.LoadVideo("rtsp", "rtsp://192.168.1.1/MJPG?W=640&H=360&Q=50&BR=3000000")
    vvv.Play

@moster67 's FFmpeg_b4a works fine for rtsp streams; I haven't tried the one @NJDude pointed at yet.

ExoPlayer don't support rtsp format
FFMPeg wrapper doesn't work with my rtsp streaming (work fine with sample video)
VLC wrapper doesn't work with my rtsp streaming (work fine with sample video)
VLC application work fine with my streaming

it's a rtsp flow in motion jpeg, i think a simple encode.

suggestion?

You may want to try Moster67's Vitamio library (version 5 or higher). I prefer it over FFMpeg and use it all the time for TV streams and videos.

this library is not

Vitamio5 it's available only to donation.
Vitamio4 doen't work file.

It's strange that all libraries doen'st work fine.

Maybe a codec issue?
If you want you can send me the streaming link by PM and I can check on Monday.

rtsp://192.168.1.1/MJPG?W=640&H=360&Q=50&BR=3000000

MJPG not supported , did you try this lib
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/a-small-vidéo-mjpeg-librarie-for-ip-cam.15540/
the port for RTSP is 1935

also note that such cameras only support single connection so don't try while you watching the video in VLC

You can also use the mjpeg decoder: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/73702/#content

mycam.CAM("192.168.1.1", 1935, "/MJPG?W=640&H=360&Q=50&BR=3000000")

Yes. There is no library. It is implemented in the class code and it is supported by B4A, B4J and B4i.

ok, i have tried to convert in a B4A project, but doesn't work fine, don't call the "mj1_frame" function

i have tried also with 554 port

Sub Process_Globals
Private mj1 As MJPEG
End Sub

Sub Globals
Private ImageView1 As ImageView
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Activity.LoadLayout("main")
      
    mj1.Initialize(Me, "mj1")
    mj1.Connect("rtsp://192.168.1.1/MJPG?W=640&H=360&Q=50&BR=3000000", 1935)
    Log("Activity_Create")
  
End Sub

Sub mj1_frame(bmp As Bitmap)
    Log("mj1_frame")
    ImageView1.Bitmap = bmp
End Sub

See the example. You shouldn't add the scheme (rtsp://).

i have sniffed the traffic from original app and action cam the port is the 554 for init protocol, but after the stream is 15740 port.

mjpeg decoder is a simple implementation of a http client. It will not follow redirections.
