Is there a compatible video player for vanilla Android tv?
That's a good question, I haven't tried the plugin on Android. Make sure the video player supports regular USB UVC cameras (maybe V4L2?).
thanks for the hint "uvc camera"
Just stumbled upon this thread according my android tv box: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments/751mls/mi_box_3_videoconferencevideocalling_working/
Will reboot my device while vita is plugged in and play around with different apps and report back whether it works, would be awesome!
Looks like I have no luck :( I tested 2 more apps, special for uvc webcams: Open webcam Webcamfi
When I plug the vita into my android box both apps ask to open but the screen stays black :(
I wonder if maybe vlc could be able to open the uvc stream, but I have no clue how to achieve this
I just made android app to show uvc video. But it not smooth to show nv12 video
Wow that's really great to hear wjchen
Are you going to improve it further and release it somewhere? I would be thankful to give it a shot and report you my feedback
@wjchen If you use OpenGL ES I think you can sample directly from a NV12 texture.
You can try my apk here https://github.com/wjchen/AndroidUvcCameras/blob/master/psvcam.apk?raw=true
@wjchen I finally found some time to give your app a shot. I'm beeing asked to allow usb access but the screen stays black no matter what I try, so still no luck with it :(
@wjchen
I tried you APK on a rooted Fire TV Box 2nd Gen. and it worked successfully, where other UVC apps have failed.
Only issue I have with the APK is, that there is some input lag (Probably from my TV) and the video has some framedrops. I dont know if the Fire TV is too weak to process the video input or if it is an issue with the Vita.
Edit:
Had the same kind of issue ob my Laptop with max resolution (Project Diva X is not playable, even OC to Max.) As soon I lowered the resolution, the video was much better. I assume the cable or the Vita is not fast enough zo transmit everything without hiccups. (Vita 1000) Is it possible to add the resolution option to the APK?
@RaZoRNo1 I tried 864x488，still framedrop. I think it caused by the wrong way to show NV12 video
@wjchen Did you tried what Xerpi suggested? To directly use open gl?
May I ask you if your apk only works on rooted devices? As RaZoRNo1 had luck with your apk and my device won't show anything
@juicypop
The app did not ask for any root permissions.
Have you checked if the plugin works without any issues on Windows?
@wjchen
Did you checked the framedrops on Android or Windows? On Windows with 864x488 and 60 FPS it was playable very fine (Project Diva X had nearly no lags/framedrops)
Also tried a bunch of UVC apps on play store, unfortunately, most of them do not give proper information if they support nv12 or not. Most give a black screen but some china one's recognized its a vita connected but gave a uvc error.
wjchen apk also gives a black screen on me, making me think maybe these UVC apps requires ROOT acces to properly display the vita? tested on a Mibox S and Oppo F9 pro.
Nonetheless, it works great on windows BTW
Maybe you guys just need this: USB Camera - Connect EasyCap or USB WebCam @juicypop @xerpi @froid-san @RaZoRNo1
