如何在Android中使用“ Dropbox API”流式传输视频？

Question

I want to make application that can streaming video from dropbox server.

so I use coreAPI and refered documents, tutorial but can't find example about streaming video. only find download picture, upload picture...

So I have no idea that how to start this project! TT What I only understand is how to get authentication, but doesn't know how to access my uploaded video, and download or streaming play.

Should I make mediaplayer class? surfaceView?

Is there some example about this?

I really desire want to get some solution.

Answer 1

Just create a media link. See the Core HTTP docs: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/docs#media .

Here's the Android call: https://www.dropbox.com/static/developers/dropbox-android-sdk-1.6-docs/com/dropbox/client2/DropboxAPI.html#media(java.lang.String , boolean).

That will give you back a temporary URL to the file, which you should be able to pass to whatever video player element you use.
