Cannot find ffmpeg

Open derchrisuk opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

i tried to test instreamer on my X9S. Got a USB and SDCARD, both have the android ffmpeg in their root. But when running the app, and trying to start streaming it tells me it cannot find the ffmpeg binary. I looked at the mount points on mine, and there is no /mnt/sdcard So I tried remounting the SDCARD to it, same problem. Tried this with both the 1.3.0 and 1.4.4 FW. Where does the binary need to go, so I could manually copy it over?

The ffmpeg binary needs to be on the root of the native/inbuilt X9S storage (which android tags as SDCARD), not an external storage device. If you are struggling to identify the native SDCARD storage location, unplug all your external storage devices (usb & sd), and then use a decent file explorer app to find the inbuilt storage location (root explorer is my choice).
