FFmpeg libraries (x86, x64, ARM, ARM64) for UWP (Universal Windows Platform)

FFmpeg for UWP (Universal Windows Platform)

You can install the NuGet Package (FFmpeg UWP 4.1.3) from here.

You can download the latest compiled libraries (FFmpeg UWP 4.1.3) from here.

---

Scope of this project

• Build FFmpeg libraries for UWP (x86, x64, ARM and ARM64) in order to port applications to UWP
• The resulted libraries can be used with the FFmpegInterop Project or any other application that requires FFmpeg libraries to run on UWP (usually C++/CX projects)

Disclaimer

The original compilation guide for WinRT/UWP can be found on FFmpeg website. I extended the instructions from the original Microsoft FFmpegInterop project. This project builds libraries only for Windows 10 (UWP) using Visual Studio 2017 (this way we can also build for ARM64).

License

• FFmpeg offers the code under GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 or later (LGPL v2.1+)
• gas-preprocessor.pl is licensed under GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 or later (LGPL v2.1+)

Prerequisites

FFmpeg source code

The project uses an embedded git submodule that points to the latest tested release of FFmpeg.

---

Visual Studio Setup

Download and install Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 on a Windows 10 machine.

---

MSYS2 Setup

• Download the latest MSYS2 installer on a directory on your PC (eg.: C:\msys64) and follow the installation instruction closely from the installation webpage.
• From msys2_shell.cmd, replace rem set MSYS2_PATH_TYPE=inherit with set MSYS2_PATH_TYPE=inherit. This will allow the environment variables for Visual Studio to be transferred to the MSYS2 environment and back.
• Once base MSYS2 is successfully installed, get the latest make package by invoking the following command in your MSYS2 shell: pacman -S make
• Also get the latest gcc package: pacman -S gcc
• Rename or remove link.exe in the MSYS2 usr bin folder (eg.: C:\msys64\usr\bin\link.exe) to prevent conflict with MSVC link.exe
• Install perl as it will be needed to run gas-preprocessor.pl: pacman -S perl
• Install also diffutils for configure script: pacman -S diffutils

---

YASM Setup

• Download YASM executable. You have to download the "general use" binaries and NOT the ones for VS2010. Either Win32 or Win64 binaries support outputting object files for both architectures so that should not matter. The last tested version was yasm-1.3.0-win64.exe.
• Rename the downloaded executable to yasm.exe and place it in your MSYS2 path.

---

gas-preprocessor Setup

Download gas-preprocessor.pl Perl script and place it in your MSYS2 path (eg.: C:\msys64\usr\bin\gas-preprocessor.pl)

Compilation

Invoke BuildFFmpeg.bat script without any parameters to build the libraries on all available architectures (x86, x64, ARM, ARM64). Also, you can invoke the script with parameters:

    BuildFFmpeg.bat				- Build for UWP ARM, x64, x86 and ARM64
    BuildFFmpeg.bat ARM64			- Build for UWP ARM64 only
    BuildFFmpeg.bat x86 x64			- Build for UWP x86 and x64 only

ffmpeg.uwp's Issues

Does it include all ffmpeg functions?

Does it include all ffmpeg functions? Like video editing

Is there a guide for how to use the compiled libraries?

Trying to integrate this into my Unity Application, and am at a loss on how to access the FFMPEG libraries/API.

rtsp:// stream doesn't show correctly?

When I try to play a stream from a dahua ip camera with a URL like this:
rtsp://user:[email protected]:portnumber
the stream "plays" but is all black? I get no error messages or exceptions? Maybe it isn't playing?
The camera stream works fine from ffplay and VLC.
fmpeg supports this url form.

Any idea how to debug this? Since it works in ffplay I would lean towards a bug in MediaElement? Or something I'm missing?

Any idea? Thanks!

System.TypeLoadException when trying to use the library

I'm trying to use the library , but once loaded from the Nuget package, it is failing on run time with this exception:
System.TypeLoadException: 'Error 0x261F.

It does seems like others might have run into the same problem, are we missing some of the DLLs here on the nuget package?

Requested Windows Runtime type 'FFmpegInterop.FFmpegInteropMSS' is not registered.

I add FFmpeg.UWP NuGet Package and FFmpegInterop.Universal NuGet Package in my project ,when i build and run the app it throw an exception " Requested Windows Runtime type 'FFmpegInterop.FFmpegInteropMSS' is not registered.", I dont know what happend。。

Documetaion ?

any have docs for UWP Usage?

not working muxing video

i have tried

I tried building with vcpkg ... but ...

Everything builds with the latest ffmpeg, but playback is broken. Getting exceptions now.

Any chance you could have a look at building with the vcpkg version of ffmpeg?

Error : avformat_open_input: Protocol not found : -1330794744

Unable to load DLL 'avutil.56': The specified module could not be found.

is it necessary to compile fffmpeg?

Hello, there's a little question.
I found that you provided a compiled version of lib download, so is it necessary to follow [Compile and Use FFmpeg Libraries for Windows Runtime (Windows 10 or Windows 8.1 Apps)]? Can i just use the compiled dll? I don't know much about ffmpeg and i am not good at C ,thank you for your help :D

RTMP Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.
