IDE: Android studio

Source code: Java + JNI + C

I would like to use cvCreateFileCapture in c section. However, cvCreateFileCapture return null.

Is it possible to use cvCreateFileCapture for opencv343 in android platform? if so, which source code is incorrect?

key source code is as below,

sint32 daOpenAVI_OpenCV( const char* filename )
{
    opencv_capture = cvCreateFileCapture(filename);
    if( !opencv_capture ) {
        return -1;
    }
    return 0;
}

there is no support for video files (apart from MJPEG/avi) in the opencv android sdk, lacking any backend for this (like FFMPEG/GSTREAMER), so you won't be able to read/write files or ip streams.

also, the C-api you're trying with was deprecated long ago, you MUST not use it.

(please use cv::VideoCapture and the c++ api in general)

Yes, the format of video file is AVI. I have add the dependency(ffmpeg) to target file. it should be OK, isn't it? i will investigate how to use cv::VideoCapture, however, i hope i can use cvCreateFileCapture API.

the C-api you're trying with was deprecated long ago oh, there is no instruction about this info in Opencv website.

Thank you for your feedback.

again, the only codec supported is MJPEG (in an avi container), not arbitrary avi files.

I have add the dependency(ffmpeg) to target file.

what did you do there, exactly ? you would have to build ffmpeg libs locally for android, and rebuild the opencv sdk with those.

because that was in 2010 already ;(

sorry, no idea about the ffmpeg part, but you'd have to use the platform scripts from here to rebuild the sdk

Thank you very much. I will try it.
