ld.lld: error: unable to find library -lpng

Linker cannot find libpng library.
Do you link to libpng explicitly (in your CMakeLists.txt file)?

[InsideFPV]

@jsulm do we have to externally add and from where i can download this library , i am adding chatgpt solution but it will not resolve please give me solution if you have any idea for this like how to link..?

please give me solution

Please answer my question first: do you link to libpng explicitly (in your CMakeLists.txt file)?

[InsideFPV]

@jsulm No sir

Yes, you're linking libpng.
Was libpng found when running cmake?
Where is libpng for Android located?

@jsulm i am adding only this code porting inside my cmake file.

I am getting gstreamer error and i ask chatgpt and it provide me this solution.
As form your questing i understand i have to add libpng in my project but i didnt added that till now.(Am i right...?)
please guide me how can i resolve it...?

You DID add it already! Just look at your CMakeLists.txt file.
I repeat the questions you did not answer:
Was libpng found when running cmake?
Where is libpng for Android located?

[InsideFPV]

@jsulm No libpng was not found while running cmake.
and it is not presend in this location:
"C:/Users/Software/AppData/Local/Android/Sdk/ndk/26.1.10909125/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/windows-x86_64/sysroot/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-android"

where will i get libpng ?
