Gstreamer: starting process 'command '/android-ndk-r13b/ndk-build''

Question

I'm having a lot of problems with getting started using Android Studio to work with Gstreamer. So far, I have used Android Studio 2.2.3 and Gstreamer gstreamer-1.0-android-universal-1.10.2 library.

Here is the error I am getting:

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:ndkBuild'.
A problem occurred starting process 'command '/android-ndk-r13b/ndk-build''

As for the Gradle Console displays:

Executing tasks: [:app:generateDebugSources, :app:mockableAndroidJar, :app:prepareDebugUnitTestDependencies, :app:generateDebugAndroidTestSources, :app:compileDebugSources, :app:compileDebugUnitTestSources, :app:compileDebugAndroidTestSources]

Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.

I have used the default ndk-bundle but of no help too.

Answer 1

Try this example https://github.com/GStreamer/gst-examples

1. You need to use ndk r12b
2. Use latest stable https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/pkg/android/1.10.2/
3. Set gstAndroidRoot
4. Build from console, assembleDebug etc

Happy building =)
