feat(clients): codec preference on Windows/Apple/Android clients (Phase 2b)
Rounds out codec negotiation across the last three clients — each advertises what it can decode,
builds its decoder from the resolved Welcome.codec, and exposes a "Video codec" preference picker.

**Windows** (Rust, mirrors Linux): `decodable_codecs()` + `ffmpeg_codec_id()`; the D3D11VA and
software FFmpeg decoders (and the mid-session D3D11VA→software demotion) open the negotiated codec
instead of hardcoding HEVC; settings gain a `codec` field + reactor ComboBox; `--codec` CLI flag.

**Apple** (Swift/C-ABI): AnnexB is now codec-aware — a `VideoCodec` enum drives H.264 vs HEVC NAL
parsing / parameter-set extraction (`CMVideoFormatDescriptionCreateFromH264ParameterSets` for H.264,
no VPS) and AVCC repacking; `PunktfunkConnection` advertises H264|HEVC via `punktfunk_connect_ex7`,
reads `resolvedCodec` (`punktfunk_connection_codec`), and threads `videoCodec` into the stage-1/2
pipelines + `VideoDecoder`; SettingsView "Video codec" Picker (auto/HEVC/H.264). AV1 is left out
(hosts don't emit it on the native path, and it's not an AnnexB codec). Test call sites updated.

**Android** (Kotlin + Rust JNI): the JNI `nativeConnect` gains `preferredCodec`; the native decode
loop picks the AMediaCodec MIME (`video/hevc`|`video/avc`) from `connector.codec` and advertises
H264|HEVC; Settings `codec` field + Compose dropdown.

Core/host/probe/Linux clippy + tests green (unchanged from 2a). Windows/Apple/Android compile on
their platform CI (this Linux box can't build them — Windows toolchain / Xcode / the Android NDK's
opus-cmake toolchain). All follow the Linux client's validated pattern.

punktfunk — Android client (phone & TV)

The native Android app for streaming a punktfunk host to your phone, tablet, or Android TV. A Compose app that finds hosts on your network, pairs with a PIN, and streams at the display's own resolution — with hardware HEVC decode, HDR10, and controller support, built for both touch and the couch (D-pad / gamepad focus navigation).

Features

  • Hardware decode — NDK AMediaCodec HEVC → SurfaceView, including HDR10 (Main10 / BT.2020 PQ), with low-latency tuning and a live stats HUD.
  • Audio both ways — Opus + Oboe playback with a jitter ring, plus mic uplink to the host.
  • Controller support — buttons + axes with rumble and HID feedback (lightbar / adaptive triggers); D-pad / gamepad focus navigation for TV and phone.
  • Find hosts automatically — native mDNS discovery; first connect does a one-time SPAKE2 PIN pairing (or TOFU on trusted LANs), then reconnects on a Keystore-wrapped, pinned identity.
  • Compose UI — Connect / Settings / Stream screens with Material You theming.

Built for arm64-v8a + x86_64.

Get it

Published to Google Play (Internal Testing) — join the beta via the Discord. Per-device setup and pairing: docs.punktfunk.unom.io/docs/install-client.

How it's built — Rust-heavy

Kotlin can't import the cbindgen C header the way Swift can, so a native bridge is unavoidable. We write it in Rust and link punktfunk-core directly — so the Android client reuses the Linux client's orchestration (audio jitter ring, VK keymap inverse, latency/skew math, capture state machine, trust logic) instead of re-porting it into Kotlin.

Side Owns
Rust (native/libpunktfunk_android.so) the JNI seam, NativeClient (QUIC control + UDP data plane), AnnexB → AMediaCodec decode (incl. HDR10), Opus + Oboe audio + mic, controller feedback, latency math, trust/pairing, mdns-sd discovery
Kotlin (app/, kit/) Compose UI, SurfaceView lifecycle, input capture, the Wi-Fi MulticastLock + permission UX, Keystore identity

The single seam is io.unom.punktfunk.kit.NativeBridgeJava_io_unom_punktfunk_kit_NativeBridge_*.

Build & run

Prerequisites: Android SDK + NDK r30 (30.0.14904198), platforms;android-37.0, build-tools;37.0.0, cmake;3.22.1 (builds libopus); JDK 21 (AGP 9.2 runs on JDK 1721, not a newer default); Rust with rustup target add aarch64-linux-android x86_64-linux-android and cargo install cargo-ndk. Toolchain is pinned (AGP 9.2 · Gradle 9.4.1 · Kotlin 2.3.21 · Compose BOM 2026.05.01 · compileSdk 37 · minSdk 31).

Android Studio: open clients/android — it uses its bundled JBR 21, and the cargoNdk* task builds the .so as part of the normal build.

CLI (point Gradle at JDK 21 if your machine default is newer):

export JAVA_HOME="$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 21)"   # or your Temurin 21 path
cd clients/android
./gradlew :app:assembleDebug     # cargo-ndk cross-compiles libpunktfunk_android.so first
./gradlew :app:installDebug      # onto a running emulator/device
# emulators from env setup:  emulator -avd pf_phone   |   emulator -avd pf_tv

The debug APK lands in app/build/outputs/apk/debug/. Launch it, pick a host, pair, and stream.
