I have a VB WinForms application, I got frames from somewhere. App is not developed by me.
_ImageList = New Queue(Of MemoryStream)
Dim bmpdecode As New Bitmap(nWidth, nHeight)
Dim ms As New MemoryStream
bmpdecode.Save(ms, Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg)
_ImageList.Enqueue(ms)
PictureBox1.BeginInvoke(New DelPintarImagen(AddressOf DrawImage), New Object() {bmpdecode})
DrawImage
is a bitmap type.
What I want is to get from a Xamarin android app VideoView
or ImageView
what I see in PictureBox1
After a days of research I have not been able to find anything that works minimally.
I can see the stream by http in web browser but I can't get from any VideoView
or ImageView
.
I got a solution for this, it's simple but it works.
I used a WebView
to display the stream in my Xamarin App disabling the zoom option, so for the user, it seems like a stream playing.
var wPlayer = FindViewById<WebView>(Resource.Id.webView1);
//Zoom Out for stretch the content by the width.
wPlayer.Settings.LoadWithOverviewMode = true;
wPlayer.Settings.UseWideViewPort = true;
wPlayer.SetPadding(0, 0, 0, 0);
wPlayer.LoadUrl("http://ip:port/?params");
