Android: Compile FFmpeg 7 with OpenSSL (.so)
A complete guide to cross-compiling OpenSSL and FFmpeg 7 for Android arm64-v8a using the NDK Clang toolchain, and integrating it into Android Studio via JNI.
Prerequisites & Sources
Download the required source codes and NDK on your Linux/macOS host.
Step 1: Cross-Compile OpenSSL
OpenSSL must be compiled first so FFmpeg can link against it.
#!/bin/bash# 1. 设置 NDK 路径 (请替换为你自己的实际路径)exportANDROID_NDK_ROOT=/opt/android-ndk-r26b# 2. 将 NDK 的 llvm 工具链加入环境变量exportPATH=$ANDROID_NDK_ROOT/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin:$PATH# 3. 设置输出目录PREFIX=$(pwd)/android_build/arm64-v8a# 4. 配置 OpenSSL 构建 (注意: 目标为 android-arm64, API 指定为 24)./Configureandroid-arm64 \ -D__ANDROID_API__=24\ --prefix=$PREFIX \ shared \ no-engine no-hw# 5. 编译并安装 (使用 install_sw 避免安装文档报错)make-j8makeinstall_swecho"✅ OpenSSL build completed!"
编译成功后,你会在 `android_build/arm64-v8a/lib` 下得到 `libssl.so` 和 `libcrypto.so`。
Step 2: Cross-Compile FFmpeg 7
Link the previously built libssl and libcrypto into FFmpeg.
成功后,你会在 FFmpeg 的输出目录下找到 `libavcodec.so`, `libavformat.so`, `libavutil.so` 等核心库。
Step 3: Android Studio & CMake
Import .so files and configure CMakeLists.txt
Directory Layout
Copy headers and shared libraries into your JNI folder.

├── libavutil.so
├── libssl.so
└── libcrypto.so
CMakeLists.txt 配置
Step 4: Verify via JNI
Open an HTTPS stream to confirm OpenSSL is functioning correctly inside FFmpeg.
