video_compress_kit_android #

The Android implementation of video_compress_kit.

How it works #

Uses Android's built-in MediaCodec hardware video encoder with MediaExtractor for demuxing and MediaMuxer for muxing. No bundled native libraries — the entire implementation rides on top of the OS APIs, adding ~0 MB to your APK size.

Pipeline #

Input MP4
  → MediaExtractor (demux video + audio tracks)
  → MediaCodec decoder (hardware H.264 decode)
  → Surface transfer
  → MediaCodec encoder (hardware H.264 encode at target bitrate / resolution)
  → MediaMuxer + audio passthrough
  → Output MP4
