Shell scripts and prebuilt binaries for compiling FFmpeg for Android with x264, libass, fontconfig, freetype, fribidi, and lame. It targets armv7, armv7-neon, and x86 architectures and pairs with the ffmpeg-android-java library.

Use cases

  • run ffmpeg commands on android devices
  • convert video files on android
  • burn subtitles into video on android
  • encode h264 video on android
  • extract audio from video on android
  • build ffmpeg for android ndk

When to choose

  • you need a full ffmpeg binary on Android with x264 and subtitle/font support
  • you want prebuilt binaries instead of cross-compiling yourself
  • you need to support older Android versions (4.1+)

When to avoid

  • you need arm64 or modern Android toolchain support
  • you want an actively maintained project
  • you only need a Java/Kotlin media API without shelling out to a binary
