Stream video android-android

I would like to stream a video between two android devices (android-android). There wouldn't be any server, so the streaming has to be direct between devices. Devices would be in the same network so they could communicate via WiFi.

I've tried using MediaRecorder - MediaPlayer via sockets, but I've received many exceptions. I also looked for library, but I just want to stream a video between two devices directly.

Any solutions?

If your video if for real time communication, e.g. a web chat or sharing some CCTV in real time with minimal delay then a real time video communication approach like WebRTC would be one additional possibility - this type of approach prioritises low latency over quality to ensure minimum delay. See here for Android WebRTC documentation:

If the requirement is just to allow one device act as a server for non-real time videos then the easiest approach may be to use one of the available HTTP server libraries or apps to allow one device act as a server that the other one can simply connect to via a browser or player. An example Android HTTP server that seems to get good reviews is:
