Prebuilt binaries are available at Github, Maven Central and CocoaPods.

2.1 Packages

There are eight different mobile-ffmpeg packages. Below you can see which system libraries and external libraries are enabled in each of them.

Please remember that some parts of FFmpeg are licensed under the GPL and only GPL licensed mobile-ffmpeg packages include them.

• libilbc, opus, snappy, x264 and xvidcore are supported since v1.1

• libaom and soxr are supported since v2.0

• chromaprint, vid.stab and x265 are supported since v2.1

• sdl, tesseract, twolame external libraries; zlib, MediaCodec Android system libraries; bzip2, zlib iOS system libraries and AudioToolbox, VideoToolbox, AVFoundation iOS system frameworks are supported since v3.0

• Since v4.2, chromaprint, sdl and tesseract libraries are not included in binary releases. You can still build them and include in your releases

• AVFoundation is not available on tvOS, VideoToolbox is not available on tvOS LTS releases

• Since v4.3.1, iOS and tvOS releases started to use iconv system library instead of iconv external library

• vo-amrwbenc is supported since v4.4

2.2 Android

• For versions 4.4 and 4.4.LTS, add mavenCentral() to your build.gradle and make sure that it is listed before jcenter()
• For 4.3.2 and older releases, add jcenter()

  repositories {
      mavenCentral()
  }
  

1. Add MobileFFmpeg dependency to your build.gradle in mobile-ffmpeg-<package name> pattern.

   dependencies {
       implementation 'com.arthenica:mobile-ffmpeg-full:4.4'
   }
   

2. Execute synchronous FFmpeg commands.

   import com.arthenica.mobileffmpeg.Config;
   import com.arthenica.mobileffmpeg.FFmpeg;
   
   int rc = FFmpeg.execute("-i file1.mp4 -c:v mpeg4 file2.mp4");
   
   if (rc == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, "Command execution completed successfully.");
   } else if (rc == RETURN_CODE_CANCEL) {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, "Command execution cancelled by user.");
   } else {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, String.format("Command execution failed with rc=%d and the output below.", rc));
       Config.printLastCommandOutput(Log.INFO);
   }
   

3. Execute asynchronous FFmpeg commands.

   import com.arthenica.mobileffmpeg.Config;
   import com.arthenica.mobileffmpeg.FFmpeg;
   
   long executionId = FFmpeg.executeAsync("-i file1.mp4 -c:v mpeg4 file2.mp4", new ExecuteCallback() {
   
       @Override
       public void apply(final long executionId, final int returnCode) {
           if (returnCode == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
               Log.i(Config.TAG, "Async command execution completed successfully.");
           } else if (returnCode == RETURN_CODE_CANCEL) {
               Log.i(Config.TAG, "Async command execution cancelled by user.");
           } else {
               Log.i(Config.TAG, String.format("Async command execution failed with returnCode=%d.", returnCode));
           }
       }
   });
   

4. Execute FFprobe commands.

   import com.arthenica.mobileffmpeg.Config;
   import com.arthenica.mobileffmpeg.FFprobe;
   
   int rc = FFprobe.execute("-i file1.mp4");
   
   if (rc == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, "Command execution completed successfully.");
   } else {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, String.format("Command execution failed with rc=%d and the output below.", rc));
       Config.printLastCommandOutput(Log.INFO);
   }
   

5. Check execution output later.

   int rc = Config.getLastReturnCode();
   
   if (rc == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, "Command execution completed successfully.");
   } else if (rc == RETURN_CODE_CANCEL) {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, "Command execution cancelled by user.");
   } else {
       Log.i(Config.TAG, String.format("Command execution failed with rc=%d and the output below.", rc));
       Config.printLastCommandOutput(Log.INFO);
   }
   

6. Stop ongoing FFmpeg operations.

   • Stop all executions

     FFmpeg.cancel();
     

   • Stop a specific execution

     FFmpeg.cancel(executionId);
     

7. Get media information for a file.

   MediaInformation info = FFprobe.getMediaInformation("<file path or uri>");
   

8. Record video using Android camera.

   FFmpeg.execute("-f android_camera -i 0:0 -r 30 -pixel_format bgr0 -t 00:00:05 <record file path>");
   

9. Enable log callback.

   Config.enableLogCallback(new LogCallback() {
       public void apply(LogMessage message) {
           Log.d(Config.TAG, message.getText());
       }
   });
   

10. Enable statistics callback.

    Config.enableStatisticsCallback(new StatisticsCallback() {
        public void apply(Statistics newStatistics) {
            Log.d(Config.TAG, String.format("frame: %d, time: %d", newStatistics.getVideoFrameNumber(), newStatistics.getTime()));
        }
    });
    

11. Ignore the handling of a signal.

    Config.ignoreSignal(Signal.SIGXCPU);
    

12. List ongoing executions.

    final List<FFmpegExecution> ffmpegExecutions = FFmpeg.listExecutions();
    for (int i = 0; i < ffmpegExecutions.size(); i++) {
        FFmpegExecution execution = ffmpegExecutions.get(i);
        Log.d(TAG, String.format("Execution %d = id:%d, startTime:%s, command:%s.", i, execution.getExecutionId(), execution.getStartTime(), execution.getCommand()));
    }
    

13. Set default log level.

    Config.setLogLevel(Level.AV_LOG_FATAL);
    

14. Register custom fonts directory.

    Config.setFontDirectory(this, "<folder with fonts>", Collections.EMPTY_MAP);
    

2.3 iOS / tvOS

1. Add MobileFFmpeg dependency to your Podfile in mobile-ffmpeg-<package name> pattern.

   • iOS

   pod 'mobile-ffmpeg-full', '~> 4.4'
   

   • tvOS

   pod 'mobile-ffmpeg-tvos-full', '~> 4.4'
   

2. Execute synchronous FFmpeg commands.

   #import <mobileffmpeg/MobileFFmpegConfig.h>
   #import <mobileffmpeg/MobileFFmpeg.h>
   
   int rc = [MobileFFmpeg execute: @"-i file1.mp4 -c:v mpeg4 file2.mp4"];
   
   if (rc == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
       NSLog(@"Command execution completed successfully.\n");
   } else if (rc == RETURN_CODE_CANCEL) {
       NSLog(@"Command execution cancelled by user.\n");
   } else {
       NSLog(@"Command execution failed with rc=%d and output=%@.\n", rc, [MobileFFmpegConfig getLastCommandOutput]);
   }
   

3. Execute asynchronous FFmpeg commands.

   #import <mobileffmpeg/MobileFFmpegConfig.h>
   #import <mobileffmpeg/MobileFFmpeg.h>
   
   long executionId = [MobileFFmpeg executeAsync:@"-i file1.mp4 -c:v mpeg4 file2.mp4" withCallback:self];
   
   - (void)executeCallback:(long)executionId :(int)returnCode {
       if (rc == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
           NSLog(@"Async command execution completed successfully.\n");
       } else if (rc == RETURN_CODE_CANCEL) {
           NSLog(@"Async command execution cancelled by user.\n");
       } else {
           NSLog(@"Async command execution failed with rc=%d.\n", rc);
       }
   }
   

4. Execute FFprobe commands.

   #import <mobileffmpeg/MobileFFmpegConfig.h>
   #import <mobileffmpeg/MobileFFprobe.h>
   
   int rc = [MobileFFprobe execute: @"-i file1.mp4"];
   
   if (rc == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
       NSLog(@"Command execution completed successfully.\n");
   } else if (rc == RETURN_CODE_CANCEL) {
       NSLog(@"Command execution cancelled by user.\n");
   } else {
       NSLog(@"Command execution failed with rc=%d and output=%@.\n", rc, [MobileFFmpegConfig getLastCommandOutput]);
   }
   

5. Check execution output later.

   int rc = [MobileFFmpegConfig getLastReturnCode];
   NSString *output = [MobileFFmpegConfig getLastCommandOutput];
   
   if (rc == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
       NSLog(@"Command execution completed successfully.\n");
   } else if (rc == RETURN_CODE_CANCEL) {
       NSLog(@"Command execution cancelled by user.\n");
   } else {
       NSLog(@"Command execution failed with rc=%d and output=%@.\n", rc, output);
   }
   

6. Stop ongoing FFmpeg operations.

   • Stop all executions

     [MobileFFmpeg cancel];
     
     

   • Stop a specific execution

     [MobileFFmpeg cancel:executionId];
     

7. Get media information for a file.

   MediaInformation *mediaInformation = [MobileFFprobe getMediaInformation:@"<file path or uri>"];
   

8. Record video and audio using iOS camera. This operation is not supported on tvOS since AVFoundation is not available on tvOS.

   [MobileFFmpeg execute: @"-f avfoundation -r 30 -video_size 1280x720 -pixel_format bgr0 -i 0:0 -vcodec h264_videotoolbox -vsync 2 -f h264 -t 00:00:05 %@", recordFilePath];

   - (void)logCallback:(long)executionId :(int)level :(NSString*)message {
       dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
           NSLog(@"%@", message);
       });
   }
   

10. Enable statistics callback.

    [MobileFFmpegConfig setStatisticsDelegate:self];
    
    - (void)statisticsCallback:(Statistics *)newStatistics {
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
            NSLog(@"frame: %d, time: %d\n", newStatistics.getVideoFrameNumber, newStatistics.getTime);
        });
    }
    

11. Ignore the handling of a signal.

    [MobileFFmpegConfig ignoreSignal:SIGXCPU];
    

12. List ongoing executions.

    NSArray* ffmpegExecutions = [MobileFFmpeg listExecutions];
    for (int i = 0; i < [ffmpegExecutions count]; i++) {
        FFmpegExecution* execution = [ffmpegExecutions objectAtIndex:i];
        NSLog(@"Execution %d = id: %ld, startTime: %@, command: %@.\n", i, [execution getExecutionId], [execution getStartTime], [execution getCommand]);
    }
    

13. Set default log level.

    [MobileFFmpegConfig setLogLevel:AV_LOG_FATAL];
    

14. Register custom fonts directory.

    [MobileFFmpegConfig setFontDirectory:@"<folder with fonts>" with:nil];
    

2.4 Manual Installation

2.4.1 Android

You can import MobileFFmpeg aar packages in Android Studio using the File -> New -> New Module -> Import .JAR/.AAR Package menu.

2.4.2 iOS / tvOS

iOS and tvOS frameworks can be installed manually using the Importing Frameworks guide. If you want to use universal binaries please refer to Using Universal Binaries guide.

2.5 Test Application

You can see how MobileFFmpeg is used inside an application by running test applications provided. There is an Android test application under the android/test-app folder, an iOS test application under the ios/test-app folder and a tvOS test application under the tvos/test-app folder.

All applications are identical and supports command execution, video encoding, accessing https, encoding audio, burning subtitles, video stabilisation, pipe operations and concurrent command execution.

3. Versions

MobileFFmpeg version number is aligned with FFmpeg since version 4.2.

In previous versions, MobileFFmpeg version of a release and FFmpeg version included in that release was different. The following table lists FFmpeg versions used in MobileFFmpeg releases.

• dev part in FFmpeg version number indicates that FFmpeg source is pulled from the FFmpeg master branch. Exact version number is obtained using git describe --tags.

4. LTS Releases

Starting from v4.2, MobileFFmpeg binaries are published in two different variants: Main Release and LTS Release.

• Main releases include complete functionality of the library and support the latest SDK/API features.

• LTS releases are customized to support a wider range of devices. They are built using older API/SDK versions, so some features are not available on them.

This table shows the differences between two variants.

¹ - Included until v4.3.2

² - Included since v4.3.2
