view H264 stream

[iankenway]

Hi, I'm writing an app which views live video over IP from a DVR system. The data is streamed using its propriety protocol from which I can strip out the H264 IFrame and Pframe packets, has anybody any ideas how I can view this video steam in my app ? any help would be gratefully appreciated

Read about MediaStreamPlayer. also, Android's supported Media Formats

Thanks for that, I've had a look but they only show how to load from a URL or a file, I have to process the packets as they come in then need to pass them onto the video viewer possibly as an array, any idea if this can be done ?

This is possible with audio, not video.

OK thanks, I could write the packets into mp4 files and play them from the app maybe, I'll have to have a think about this
