Melody, Unfortunately, this does seem to be the situation until at least the next release of the SDK.
I am trying to find a way around it through other interfaces in the native code, but I get the impression that even if I find one, it won't actually be useable in combination with SDK code. Maybe we need to start another mailing list for unrequited android realtime audio :) Regards, -Dorn On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 10:02 PM, melody <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I've been working on an application that requires the user to record > some audio, and for that audio to be sent my server.
