fix(client/android): the stream keeps its aspect instead of stretching to the panel
MediaCodec scales whatever it decodes to fill the Surface it renders into,
and the Surface filled the screen — so a stream whose resolution didn't
match the panel's aspect came out stretched. Nothing downstream of the
Surface can correct that; the Surface itself has to carry the aspect.

Size the video to the negotiated mode's ratio, centred, with the remainder
black. The mode is known from the handshake before the first frame arrives,
via a new `nativeVideoSize` (the same `client.mode()` the HUD already
reports as `w×h@hz`); an older native lib returning nothing falls back to
filling, exactly as before.

Input follows the picture. Direct-pointer touch, multi-touch passthrough
and the pen lane all map positions against the size of the node they sit
on, so the gesture layer moves onto the same rect as the video and all
three stay correct by construction instead of each needing an offset
threaded through it. The physical-mouse path can't work that way — its
events arrive from the activity in WINDOW coordinates — so it now measures
against the SurfaceView's rect on screen, subtracting the letterbox origin
and clamping into the picture: a pointer out on a bar has no host position
of its own, and the edge is the honest answer for it.

One deliberate consequence: trackpad swipes that START inside a letterbox
bar no longer register. Trackpad input is relative and could have kept the
whole panel, but one rule — input lands on the picture — beats a mode-
dependent input surface, and the pen lane rides inside trackpad mode too.

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 + AAudio 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 + armeabi-v7a + x86_64 — the 32-bit armeabi-v7a slice is what keeps the app installable on the many 32-bit Google TV / Android TV streamers (Walmart onn. 4K, Chromecast with Google TV, budget Amlogic boxes) that otherwise reject a 64-bit-only build as "not compatible".

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 + AAudio 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 armv7-linux-androideabi 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 28).

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.
