HD video streaming in gingerbread and ICS


i am really not getting anything on net related to this topic. I wanted to do HD video streaming on gingerbread and on ICS. I tried to play various HD video(mp4) locally on blaze ported with gingerbread, but not able to play. First of all i am not getting why it's not able to play video locally.

And the second thing i kept videos on server, but on pandaboard, i am able to hear sound only no picture.

I am wondering no body ever tried to do streaming of HD video. And do we always need to compress those videos to do streaming.

I am really helpless and i searched alot, but there is no solution for this.

Please help.

  • go through this link http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html

    part to check Video Encoding Recommendations

    Table 2. Examples of supported video encoding parameters. SD (Low quality) SD (High quality) HD (Not available on all devices)

    I guess the device your using is not supporting HD
