Hi, I am trying to get some understanding of Androd+WebKit port, specially around HTML5 player implementation, I wrote to android-platform list, looks like my messages was not loud enough to reach develoeprs. I am hoping to bump into some Android+WebKit developers here.
As you might know, android only has full-screen support for HTML5 player. I performed some tests around this, it seems like implementation does not honor any css properties applied around video element, which means its directly scaling video buffer to whole screen. And implementation is neverwriting back to WebKit buffer; I know from Qt's 4.6 implementation there are some performance implications around it (since it uses WidgetRenderer), And in Android, I am assuming this is done take advantage of hardware-acceleration? One more questions on same ground; how are controls being rendered in Android+WebKit? I know that, in desktop world, layout and rendering of controls are handled by WebKit rendering engine. So now I wanted to modify this code, so that instead of displaying full screen I write it back Webkit buffer so that my pretty css works around video element. But I am unable to locate the media player implementation under directory "mydroid/external/webkit/WebCore/platform/graphics/android" Does this mean media player implementation (MediaPlayerPrivateInterface) is vendor (such as Samsung / HTC / Droid etc) specific? Does it also mean that codec-support is delegated all the way to vendor code? Which kind of makes sense. Thanks Chinmaya Sn
