RealMediaBenchmark's class KDoc said:
Populate with:
adb push <file>.mp4 /sdcard/Android/data/org.libremediaconverter/files/
Twelve lines below, the `samples` property KDoc -- on `get() = context.filesDir` -- says:
Internal storage, not the external files dir. Files placed in the external dir by
`adb push` or `adb shell cp` stay owned by the shell user, and the app then gets
EACCES trying to read them -- which presents as an unparseable input rather than a
permission problem.
Different directories, and the second exists specifically to explain why the first fails.
Anyone following the class KDoc stages files the benchmark cannot read, gets a skip, and
reads the skip as "not staged yet" -- the failure mode the property KDoc warns about, walked
into by the instruction in the same file.
The fix is not a corrected command. Restating the mechanism in a second place is what let
these drift, and a replacement command I have not executed would be the same defect with a
fresher date. The class KDoc now names [samples] as the single place that answers it.
Two things added that are checkable rather than remembered: the exact filenames the tests
look for, via [H264_SAMPLE] and [AV1_SAMPLE] -- the old text said `<file>.mp4`, so even the
right directory left you guessing -- and a note that the two skips every green E2E leg
reports are these.
Not claimed: that the benchmark misbehaves on CI. An earlier version of the ticket said so;
it was wrong, and measuring settled it -- both tests report SKIPPED on the gating legs, the
guards work, and "harmless in CI" is accurate. The failure that prompted the look is
Media3EngineTest, tracked as #102.
Closes#101.
