Remarks

MediaExtractor facilitates extraction of demuxed, typically encoded, media data from a data source.

It is generally used like this:

MediaExtractor extractor = new MediaExtractor();
            extractor.setDataSource(...);
            int numTracks = extractor.getTrackCount();
            for (int i = 0; i &lt; numTracks; ++i) {
              MediaFormat format = extractor.getTrackFormat(i);
              String mime = format.getString(MediaFormat.KEY_MIME);
              if (weAreInterestedInThisTrack) {
                extractor.selectTrack(i);
              }
            }
            ByteBuffer inputBuffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(...)
            while (extractor.readSampleData(inputBuffer, ...) &gt;= 0) {
              int trackIndex = extractor.getSampleTrackIndex();
              long presentationTimeUs = extractor.getSampleTime();
              ...
              extractor.advance();
            }

            extractor.release();
            extractor = null;

This class requires the android.Manifest.permission#INTERNET permission when used with network-based content.

Constructors

MediaExtractor()

Fields

SampleFlagEncrypted
Obsolete.

The sample is (at least partially) encrypted, see also the documentation for android.media.MediaCodec#queueSecureInputBuffer

SampleFlagPartialFrame
Obsolete.

This indicates that the buffer only contains part of a frame, and the decoder should batch the data until a buffer without this flag appears before decoding the frame.

SampleFlagSync
Obsolete.

The sample is a sync sample (or in MediaCodec's terminology it is a key frame.

SeekToClosestSync
Obsolete.

If possible, seek to the sync sample closest to the specified time

SeekToNextSync
Obsolete.

If possible, seek to a sync sample at or after the specified time

SeekToPreviousSync
Obsolete.

If possible, seek to a sync sample at or before the specified time

Properties

CachedDuration

Returns an estimate of how much data is presently cached in memory expressed in microseconds.

Class

Returns the runtime class of this Object.

(Inherited from Object)
DrmInitData

Extract DRM initialization data if it exists

Handle

The handle to the underlying Android instance.

(Inherited from Object)
HasCacheReachedEndOfStream

Returns true iff we are caching data and the cache has reached the end of the data stream (for now, a future seek may of course restart the fetching of data).

JniIdentityHashCode (Inherited from Object)
JniPeerMembers
LogSessionId

Returns the LogSessionId for MediaExtractor. -or- Sets the LogSessionId for MediaExtractor.

Metrics

Return Metrics data about the current media container.

PeerReference (Inherited from Object)
PsshInfo

Get the PSSH info if present.

SampleFlags

Returns the current sample's flags.

SampleSize
SampleTime

Returns the current sample's presentation time in microseconds.

SampleTrackIndex

Returns the track index the current sample originates from (or -1 if no more samples are available)

ThresholdClass

This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

(Inherited from Object)
ThresholdType

This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

(Inherited from Object)
TrackCount

Count the number of tracks found in the data source.

Methods

Advance()

Advance to the next sample.

AdvanceAsync()
Clone()

Creates and returns a copy of this object.

(Inherited from Object)
Dispose() (Inherited from Object)
Dispose(Boolean) (Inherited from Object)
Equals(Object)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

(Inherited from Object)
GetAudioPresentations(Int32)

Get the list of available audio presentations for the track.

GetCasInfo(Int32)

Retrieves the information about the conditional access system used to scramble a track.

GetHashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetSampleCryptoInfo(MediaCodec+CryptoInfo)

If the sample flags indicate that the current sample is at least partially encrypted, this call returns relevant information about the structure of the sample data required for decryption.

GetTrackFormat(Int32)

Get the track format at the specified index.

JavaFinalize()

Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.

(Inherited from Object)
Notify()

Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.

(Inherited from Object)
NotifyAll()

Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.

(Inherited from Object)
ReadSampleData(ByteBuffer, Int32)

Retrieve the current encoded sample and store it in the byte buffer starting at the given offset.

ReadSampleDataAsync(ByteBuffer, Int32)
Release()

Make sure you call this when you're done to free up any resources instead of relying on the garbage collector to do this for you at some point in the future.

SeekTo(Int64, MediaExtractorSeekTo)

All selected tracks seek near the requested time according to the specified mode.

SelectTrack(Int32)

Subsequent calls to #readSampleData, #getSampleTrackIndex and #getSampleTime only retrieve information for the subset of tracks selected.
