Running Game and video files on android 2.3 in dm365evm

Hi Android developers,

                                         I had booted android 2.3 gingerbread with kernel 2.6.32 flavour with all android support,on dm365evm.

all services are getting started and i am accessing the android through USB keyboard . Even i configured the internet and am able to browse the websites.

Now the issue is with playing the video ,audio,and game on the machine.

ISSUE 1: On playing video i get blanc screen but the navigator will be scrolling, that means video is playing but i am not able to see any video.

                      Is their any solution to overcome this ?

ISSUE 2: On running any game , i will be getting the force close.

Can anyone suggest me how to overcome this problem?

THANKS AND REGARDS

  • Hi Rohit,

    1. Issue 1: Are you playing internet based video ? if yes then need to have android based flash plugin for flash videos.

    If you are playing videos from card, then what is the video type?

    2. Issue 2: Provide logcats for further analysis

  • Hi satish,

                         Thanks for the response, well Primarily am trying with mp4 formate video file on android 2.3 on dm365evm.

    well, i have two sample of viseo files :

    1) video file Named 'Alvin_Chipmunks.mp4' which is 16MB in size and mp4 format.

                       so while playing this I am not able to watch video on screen(blanc screen) but navigator will be working.

    2)Video File Named 'sample1_10fps.mp4' whichi s 4MB and 10fps ,mp4 format.

                   This video is playing with very slow framerate, 

    Thus please clarify my doubts :

    a)Is their any specific file format in android to play on ? if so , which is that?

    7838.21st_feb.txtb)How can slow farmerate solved , is their any video accelerator or any media player to be installed ?

    3)I had downloaded some 3 games from http://www.androidgamesroom.com/stand-alone-games/82936.htm

    thus the games are supported 720X480 resolution and for all android flavours (2.1-4.0).

    i will be able to see the icons on the window , but if i click on them ,it leads to the force close .

    in logcat i get

    game app name is 882914182211.apk which is placed in system/app folder of RFS

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    D/installd( 1789): DexInv: --- BEGIN '/system/app/882914182211.apk' ---

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Hi Rohit,

    Looks like memory problem. Could increase memory in bootargs -> mem=256M and give a try

  • Hi satish,

                    Well, i found that we have max of 128 MB RAM on dm365evm.

    So probably 256 MB wont make any sense in bootargs, and if so kernel may not uncompress.

    So , is their any other solution to tackle this ?

  • Hi Rohit,

    128 MB is not recommended for android to give output as expected.

    May be you would like to go through#
