Image effects (e.g. blurring) on VideoView/TextureView

[Daniel Moraes]

Hello guys,

I am developing an Android application which has a video player. Some video files are stored locally on the external storage and I need to display them blurred in a VideoView (or a TextureView).

A naive solution would be to retrieve frames from the video (using MediaMetadataRetriever), apply some blur algorithm to each frame and draw it to the View. Does anyone know any other way to do this? My goal here is performance.

Thank you.
