Trying to implement WebRTC and getting: Error inflating org.webrtc.SurfaceViewRenderer


Trying to implement the WebRTC inside my app following the Meshenger approach and it works well there, but for some reason, I am getting the inflating error.

The version I am using is: 'org.webrtc:google-webrtc:1.0.28513'

Here is the error:

What can the issue be? Thank you in advance.


Solution

  • For anyone having a similar problem. The issue were the attributes that were used but didn't exist in my project. For example android:background="?attr/backgroundCardColor". Remove or add those and it should work.
