Android NDK & FFMPEG build

I'm trying to build FFMPEG library for my android application using the NDK. I have downloaded the source code from it's website and I think I build it (it's my first try working with NDK and ffmpeg). I have created a build.sh file which I'm using to execute it from command line on Mac OS X. But I have a few questions...

First things is as I know I need Android.mk file so I can use the builded library in my application,but I don't know how to do that for reasons which I told you above. After I run my build.sh I get android folder with a few folders and some libraries. So my first question is, how can I build the Android.mk file which I need...and maybe if someone can explain me why I need it.

My second question is I need some libraries from ffmpeg to be able to use them from my app, but after the build i can't see them in my source tree. I know that I have to enable them in my build.sh and I think I did,but I can't see them. So any kind of information about my build file will be helpful for me to understand how to configure it. Here is how it looks like :

    #!/bin/bash
######################################################
# Usage:
# put this script in top of FFmpeg source tree
# ./build_android
# It generates binary for following architectures:
# ARMv6 
# ARMv6+VFP 
# ARMv7+VFPv3-d16 (Tegra2) 
# ARMv7+Neon (Cortex-A8)
# Customizing:
# 1. Feel free to change ./configure parameters for more features
# 2. To adapt other ARM variants
# set $CPU and $OPTIMIZE_CFLAGS 
# call build_one

Thanks for any kind of useful information/suggestions/examples and etc.

I made a tutorial on how to build ffmpeg and x264 for android: zip with build of ffmpeg with x264

You can also download the zip file containing the files you need to make an application on android.

If you want more detailed instruction of how to build ffmpeg and how to use it to build Android apps, please refer to the book Android NDK cookbook: http://www.packtpub.com/android-native-development-kit-cookbook/book

The Bonus Chapter 1 is dedicated to multimedia app development with Android NDK and ffmpeg, and it is available for free at http://www.packtpub.com/sites/default/files/downloads/Developing_Multimedia_Applications_with_NDK.pdf

First of all, you should read the documentation for Android NDK and check out some sample apps. You'll find these details in android_NDK_home/docs and android_NDK_home/samples (where android_NDK_home is the folder name for your android NDK).

Also, check this link on stackoverflow: Using FFmpeg with Android-NDK

For a stept by step tutorial, this is a pretty good one: http://www.roman10.net/how-to-build-ffmpeg-for-android/

Also, you'll have to install/configure some elements on your Eclipse to enable support for developing applications that are built with the NDK: http://mhandroid.wordpress.com/2011/01/23/using-eclipse-for-android-cc-development/ http://wiki.eclipse.org/Sequoyah/ndk_checklist

And a pretty good project that uses the ffmpeg library: https://github.com/havlenapetr/FFMpeg
