Hi to all, I would like to create an audio and video call streaming between 2 apps, a simple one to one call with Xamarin Forms. I have seen this Azure streaming https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/communication-services/concepts/voice-video-calling/calling-sdk-features Could be implemented with Xamarin Forms for Android and iOS ? Otherwise how can I achieve a video call with audio between apps. Thanks to all.

Thanks for reply! If the end goal is to process video and pass frames to module to do further processing (like barcodes), then unfortunately the mobile ACS Calling UI SDKs do not support this functionality at the moment. The mobile ACS Calling UI SDK only supports setting up audio/video calling experience and we have sample for both Xamarin and MAUI depending on what you are looking for. Also you may want to know that Microsoft is pushing folks towards MAUI rather than Xamarin since MAUI is actively being worked on and will have more support compared to Xamarin going forward. Xamarin Sample: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/communication-services-ui-library-xamarin MAUI Sample: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/communication-services-ui-library-maui Please note that we are not officially supporting Nuget packages for these bindings at the moment. You need to go through the sample and create the binding themselves in their own code repository by following the Samples above. Having said if you have any feedback related to product please share here: https://feedback.azure.com/d365community/search/?q=Azure+Communication+services The product team is actively looking into this and provide response accordingly. Hope this helps.

Thank you sneha, but the links you gave to me are not reachable, I am seeing a 404 error. We have a big broject that we are slowly migrating towards MAUI, for this project we can chose directly maui but we need something to work.

I'm a professional android(java) developer and have 4+ years of experience in it. Currently I'm working as a Xamarin Developer.

I've created an marketing app where daily greetings are integrated.

I've done the same in android (java) also along with video composing feature and that's working.

But in Xamarin.Forms, I'm unable to do it. i tried so many third party/native api, then also I'm not successful to make it.

What's the process of this video composition or what i need:

select a video file by click on the button.

click on share.

while sharing my app's logo/watermark should be fixed or added into the video and convert it into .mp4 file and share it. Therefore, I humbly request any of the Microsoft developers to help me. It'll be a big help from them to me.

Please ask new questions on their own thread. Xamarin doesn't include its own video compositing stack: it provides access to the underlying platform API. You'll need to use a native or 3rd party library to add your watermark. You should be able to do this the same way as in your Java app.
