How to build VLC for Android project in android studio?

Question

I am following this wiki: https://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile/ to build libvlc native library for android. So far I have been able to compile and build apk using compile.sh which is described on the wiki. Now I am trying to build and run the whole project using android studio. I have selected build variant dev to run and build the apk. But the android studio produced apk size is smaller than the apk produced by using compile.sh. After analysing both apks I found that the libvlc.so file is missing from the android studio generated apk. How can I build and run VLC for Android project using android studio?

Answer 1

I think the libvlc part of VLC-Android can only be built from CLI.
