As limited computational platforms, phones normally do audio by means of specialized hardware and low level routines, which aren't very flexible and may be closely tuned to the task. It doesn't surprise me at all that you seem to only be able to have one active instance. On the contrary I'd be surprised if having two did work - there doesn't seem an obvious use case to justify the effort for them to ahve supported that. Some of the phones are now fast enough to marginally do software decoding. You might be able to manage two instances of that, or one hardware assisted and one pure software. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
