We’ve recently released a new version of our OpenTok Android SDK. It includes:
- Screen sharing support — You can now share your mobile screen as the video source for a publisher. See the code samples.
- Hardware acceleration — You can take advantage of the built-in VP8 hardware decoding on the following select devices: Asus K010, Asus K011, and Asus K013. The hardware decoding uses less CPU for video processing, saves battery life, and provides a better app experience. Hardware acceleration is enabled by default in the SDK, no additional development is required.
- Emulator support — You can now use the Android built-in emulator for development with OpenTok.
- Multiple bug fixes and performance optimizations.
For more information please see the release notes.
In order to take advantage of this new functionality, please recompile your app with the OpenTok Android SDK 2.4. Learn how to do that and more here.
