[android-developers] Re: Getting File Descriptor For Pipe
This is unlikely to work because the OpenCore engine isn't setup to play from a pipe. It plays from a local file, which allows it to seek within the file, or from an HTTP or RTSP/RTP stream, which requires content formatted specifically for streaming. A future version of the SDK will support streamed audio I/O from Java apps. On Nov 26, 7:47 am, Kenneth Loafman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm relatively new to Java and I need some help, probably in the terminology, more than the technology.

I need to generate a sound and be able to change it roughly 24 times per second. Threaded MediaPlayer just is not smooth enough to enable it to be continuous (clicks and silence), so I was thinking of changing the data source to an FD and just feed it a continuous stream, changing as needed.

[android-developers] Re: MediaPlayer seek on startup
You must always call prepare() before seekTo(). The player engine needs to read the first part of the stream to identify the stream type and required codecs and read the content index (if it exists).

[android-developers] Re: Android Camera Preview Filter Using Camera.PreviewCallback.onPreviewFrame
The G1 preview format is YUV 420 semi-planar (U and V are subsampled by 2 in both X and Y). The Y plane is first, followed by UV pairs - I believe the U sample comes first in the pair. Technically it's YCbCr 420 semi-planar, but very few people use that term. On Nov 26, 6:27 pm, dmanpearl [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Blindfold, Thanks for your help.

MORE ON THE CAMERA LIVE PREVIEW FILTERED DISPLAY CAPABILITY As you know, I want to display live camera data through a custom filter. I got most of the way through the YCbCr_422_SP data buffer returned to Android's Camera.PreviewCallback onCameraFrame() callback function, and now I am looking for help decyphering the U, V portion of the buffer. I verified that the first (width*height) bytes are simple Y luminance values that can be displayed (via Bitmap and ImageView) to make a viable gray-scale image. The total number of bytes are (width * height * 3 / 2). The remaining 1/2 image bytes are clearly used to store U, V (Cb, Cr) data. Therefore, there are 1/4 image bytes for each U, V component (i.e. each U, V component is used for 4 pixels of the image). This looks like 411 or 420 data, not 422, but we have bigger fish to fry. I cannot determine if the U V data is aligned adjacently, in alternating rows, or in squares as described in this Wikipedia graphical description: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Yuv420.svg. Once I finally determine the structure of the U, V data, I have several equations to convert from YUV to RGB and I have tried many ways of combining the UV data with the luminance data of the first 2/3 of the buffer to no avail. So far I can only display mono-chrome. If you or others on this list can decode the Android YCbCr_422_SP data, please post the solution as soon as possible. Your efforts and generosity are greatly appreciated. I am convinced that representatives from Google/Android and others monitoring this list know how to do this. Please share the information.

I'm not surprised there are some rough edges because it didn't get any testing outside of the basic use cases. I suggest you log a bug. If you have a code snippet that demonstrates the problem, that would be even better.

[android-developers] Re: audio recording issues
I can only tell you that the feature is done. The timing of when you see a device in the field that supports it is up to the deployment manager. It's important to remember that Android is a platform, and just because the platform advances doesn't necessarily mean that all devices are advancing in lockstep. Each deployment manager will make choices based on their own business case. For example, the G1 has different deployments based on region.

[android-developers] Re: MediaPlayer and onSaveInstanceState?
The HTTP session isn't controlled by the Java application, the media framework has its own HTTP client. The Java proxy object for the network session is the MediaPlayer object which is owned by VideoView. You could retain a reference to the VideoView object across the orientation change, so that it keeps its internal MediaPlayer reference. You need to be careful because holding on to a MediaPlayer object can have significant implications on battery life, so you want to make sure you release it if your activity no longer has the focus. Unfortunately, the current VideoView design doesn't work well for restoring state because it starts playing immediately after setVideoURI ().

[android-developers] Re: More MediaPlayer questions
You want some code like this to play from raw resources:
AssetFileDescriptor afd = getResources().openRawResourceFd

if (afd != null) {
mp.setDataSource(afd.getFileDescriptor(), afd.getStartOffset(),
afd.getLength());
} else {
throw new IOException(Unable to open test file);
}
I don't quite grok what you want to do with the music player. Is your
app in the foreground while the music player is in the background? If
so and you aren't using any elements of the music player UI, why not
just create your own music player inside the app that you can control?
There is a headset button interface you might be able to inject events
into to get the music player to pause and resume if you have to go
that way to get the UI. It's not going to give you very fine-grained
control over timing.
If the user is on a call, your application does not have focus and you
should not be doing anything. That said, the user could bring your app
to the fore while on the call and start playing with it. My view on
that is to let them do it, so we allow users to pull up YouTube or the
music player and use them while still on the call. There is an API to
detect if the ringtone is playing or the user is on a call - I believe
it's in android.media.AudioService, but I could be wrong.
We're working on improved docs for the media framework. Generally,
there's a pretty strict regiment you have to follow to get from a new
MediaPlayer object to the playing state:
MediaPlayer m = new MediaPlayer();
m.setDataSource(uri);
m.setAudioStreamType(streamType);
m.prepare(); // or prepareAsync() and wait for OnPrepared to fire
// setDataSource and setAudioStreamType are no longered allowed unless
after reset()
// getDuration, getCurrentPosition, setLooping, setVolume, isPlaying
are all valid now
m.start();
// now you can also pause, start, seekTo (paused or playing), and
stop.
reset() is valid in any state, though we have a bug in RC30 if you
haven't take a media player to prepare state, the app thread will
deadlock in reset(). Will be fixed in a release soon.
Hope this helps.

I've been googling and searching the groups for answers and haven't
been able to find anything concrete. I have several questions
regarding the use of MediaPlayer if somebody can help me out:
1. I need to package an audio resource with my application, which I
have done in /res/raw. However, it appears that I must use
MediaPlayer.create() to use a resource ID rather than
MediaPlayer.setDataSource(). I found some references to creating a
URI to raw via android:resource://package/raw/name and
android:resource//package/ + resourceId. However, both of these
tries resulted in IOExceptions during setDataSource. I'm assuming due
to a bad URI. Is it possible to get a valid URI in SDK 1.0 that will
point to a raw resource?
2. I'm writing an app that does some tracking and will typically go
hand in hand with the music player running. Part of my app will, at
times, need to play sound on top of the running audio stream. Is
there any way for my app to get ahold of and temporarily pause the
music stream so that the user will be able to clearly hear my audio?
Is this prevented because it's considered 'bad behavior'? (I hope not
because in my case its actually good and desirable behavior)
3. I see that I can set the audio stream but is there any
documentation/discussion/details on what the various streams are, how
they are used, and how they interact with one another? For example,
as mentioned above I want to be able to pause/override/interrupt a
music playing stream with my notification but I would NOT want to have
my notification play if they are on an active phone call. Also, is
there any doc/discussion/detail on which methods can be invoked on the
mediaplayer at what times? As I experiment I seem to get a lot of
'invalid media state' errors when I try things with very little
indication as to what state it is in and how I get it from the bad
state to an acceptable state for the method in question.
Thanks for any assistance. I've been researching for a couple of days
but all the information I can find is very sparse or appears to be
things that were valid in early SDKs but may not be any longer.

I'm beginning to grok the fullness... :) You could use the ALARM stream, though the user might have silenced alarms and then nothing will be heard. We are adding the ability to send events to the music player to tell it to play, pause, skip, etc. to support AVRCP. This will come in a release in Q1. That seems like the ideal way to hook your app in, and hopefully 3rd party music player apps will pick up on this as well.

Allow me to help you grok the fullness of this (wonder how many people have actually read that book these days) :) My app actually runs in foreground and background (via service) for doing some exercise tracking. As someone is out moving about they may start my app, set things up, and start tracking then leave the app. The service is in background paying attention to what its supposed to (GPS, calculations, etc.) and at certain intervals needs to 'read out' some statistics. I don't want to build my own mp3 player in the app because it's a) not what I want to focus on and b) not going to be as good as everything else that is already out there. I would much prefer to just play nicely with existing mp3 apps. The only requirement I would have is this one ability to either play my notification over the audio stream louder than the music or (preferably) suspend/pause the music stream to play my notification, then resume the other streams. The phone could be in one of several states: 1. MP3 player playing, my app in foreground, my app service running. 2. MP3 player in foreground, my app gone, my app service running. 3. Some other app in foreground (on a call maybe), my app gone, my app service running. Again what I'm looking for here is the best way for my notifications to interrupt any current audio stream (except a phone call) that is going on as long as my service is active. (If my service is active in background, then the user wants to hear these notifications) Do the audio stream types interact/override one another? If I put my player in the ALARM type will that stop/play louder than the MUSIC type? Thanks!

[android-developers] Re: How to generate tones for keys
When you are in a call, press the JKL tab at the bottom of the screen to bring up the DTMF dial pad. This will generate DTMF tones over the radio as well as generate tones for the user to hear locally (unless the user has disabled the local tones in the Sound/Display settings).

The radio firmware generates the tones for the far end. The local tones are generated algorithmically on the app processor. See ToneGenerator.

[android-developers] Re: Phone crash on volume key
It sounds like your application is not releasing its media player resources. When you're done playing a sound, you need to call the MediaPlayer.release() method. If you're playing a lot of sounds rapidly, the garbage collector won't be able to keep up. Arguably, the runtime shouldn't reboot. I think we have a fix for this in the next release.

[android-developers] Re: More MediaPlayer questions
The media server does not have access to your application's data directory for security reasons. If you want the media server to play a file in your data directory, you need to open the file in your app and use the setDataSource(fd) method to pass open file descriptor to media player. Alternatively, you can copy the data files to the SD card and play by path.

This is very urgent for me. Thanks Kavitha On Dec 10, 6:01 pm, Greg gregory.r.fie...@gmail.com wrote: I've been googling and searching the groups for answers and haven't been able to find anything concrete. I have several questions regarding the use of MediaPlayer if somebody can help me out: 1. I need to package an audio resource with my application, which I have done in /res/raw. However, it appears that I must use MediaPlayer.create() to use a resource ID rather than MediaPlayer.setDataSource(). I found some references to creating a URI to raw via android:resource://package/raw/name and android:resource//package/ + resourceId. However, both of these tries resulted in IOExceptions during setDataSource. I'm assuming due to a bad URI. Is it possible to get a valid URI in SDK 1.0 that will point to a raw resource? 2. I'm writing an app that does some tracking and will typically go hand in hand with the music player running. Part of my app will, at times, need to play sound on top of the running audio stream. Is there any way for my app to get ahold of and temporarily pause the music stream so that the user will be able to clearly hear my audio? Is this prevented because it's considered 'bad behavior'? (I hope not because in my case its actually good and desirable behavior) 3. I see that I can set the audio stream but is there any documentation/discussion/details on what the various streams are, how they are used, and how they interact with one another? For example, as mentioned above I want to be able to pause/override/interrupt a music playing stream with my notification but I would NOT want to have my notification play if they are on an active phone call. Also, is there any doc/discussion/detail on which methods can be invoked on the mediaplayer at what times? As I experiment I seem to get a lot of 'invalid media state' errors when I try things with very little indication as to what state it is in and how I get it from the bad state to an acceptable state for the method in question. Thanks for any assistance. I've been researching for a couple of days but all the information I can find is very sparse or appears to be things that were valid in early SDKs but may not be any longer.

Video telephony was not a priority for the markets that we launched in this year. OpenCore will have a H.324M stack in 2009.

[android-developers] Re: MediaPlayer setDataSource or prepare issue
setDataSource() with offset is for playing an embedded media file. In
other words, there must be a valid WAVE header at the specified
offset. An example use case is a resource file that contains many WAVE
files with a table of contents at the beginning.
You can call seekTo() to start playback at time offset.

[android-developers] Re: Cupcake Anyone in Google that Could Shed Some Light! :) Thanks!
1. The Music Player stops playing when a call comes in and resumes after the call is complete. With Cupcake, the music player will slowly ramp up the volume after the call is completed. 2. The streaming audio interface is more flexible than InputStream. You can build an InputStream interface on it, and we will probably release some sample code for it. Take a look at the AudioTrack and AudioRecord classes in the git tree: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=tree;f=media/java/android/media;h=9d26d4ec9f9d0ff30a4041fc9161fbc34755bcc0;hb=cupcake On Dec 23, 6:42 am, Jona medicalsou...@hotmail.com wrote: //Notable changes introduced in cupcake:// # Music - New features Music playback fades in after suspending for phone call. # Framework - Streaming audio I/O for applications.

[android-developers] Re: MediaPlayer streaming WAV audio
The Cupcake branch has provisions for streaming linear PCM audio in
and out of Java.
But before everyone gets too excited, please remember that it takes
time for code in a stabilization branch to be deployed on a device.
There are a series of release candidates, terminal acceptance cycles
on handset(s), and then manufacturing and/or OTA cycles. It may be
months before you see this feature on an actual device.

[android-developers] Re: imeem and buffering audio with MediaPlayer
I haven't looked at imeem, but one way to get around the issue is using an HTTP proxy on the device. The proxy server could be buffering up the next stream while the current stream is playing. On Dec 30 2008, 11:37 pm, Dan McGuirk mcgu...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I'm wondering if anyone knows how the imeem application is handling its streaming audio. It seems to be able to buffer the entire track as quickly as possible, as well as buffering the upcoming track before it is played. As far as I can tell from reading several other threads here, that is only possible by writing the track to a file and then pointing the media player at the file. But I'm watching df pretty closely and I don't see the space used on any of the partitions going up as it buffers. Is the data hiding somewhere? Another possibility that was raised was that you could do this using a file descriptor associated with a socket, sort of like in this example: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa... But apparently this doesn't work--I'm guessing maybe because the MediaPlayer tries to seek on the fd to determine its length? (Guessing based on its behavior with normal files that are appended to after it starts playing.) Is there some other possibility? Obviously the imeem folks have it working well somehow, but I don't quite get how. Some of the other threads I've read seem to be telling me this isn't quite possible (links below). If I just pass URLs to MediaPlayer one after the other in the normal way, there's way too long of a delay (10+ seconds) between tracks. That's too long; long enough for the user to start thinking, Why isn't this working?, pick up the phone and double-check it, etc. So I need some way to start buffering an upcoming track in advance (maybe create a second MediaPlayer and call prepareAsync() early... although this seems messy, and it can't be what imeem is doing).

[android-developers] Re: imeem and buffering audio with MediaPlayer
I haven't tried it myself and don't have any sample code. The proxy approach has one advantage over simple file playback: It can start playing as soon as there is a reasonable amount of content downloaded - assuming the content is formatted properly for streaming. For local file playback, I believe that OpenCore seeks to the end immediately to find the end of the file and that won't work with a partial download.

android-discuss is probably a better forum for this discussion. I would like to correct a misconception: Android is an application processor stack.

I specifically did not adopt or even look at Android until a handset device was released and the SDK hit 1.0 simply because I knew the platform probably would not be complete and I don't have the time / desire to work around incomplete APIs / implementation (yes, was correct on that; for audio at least; lots of gold to be had elsewhere; seriously, kudos Android team et al, I haven't been this excited in a while about a new tech!). So, yes, lets continue to discuss how to solve the audio issue that encroaches on all of us who want performance audio on Android and all 'droid devices in general. I will throw in my two cents on how I _am_ (not would be) solving it after dealing with the woes and inadequacies of Java Sound on the desktop _for years_ from an API perspective to simply incomplete implementations on various platforms and JVM versions. (Java Sound - Write once, test everywhe... oh wait you mean it doesn't fully work on X platform at all?.?. gah!!!) One solution on the desktop has been to ditch Java Sound and support PortAudio (www.portaudio.com) via JNI. I propose that Android can also provide the best and most _portable_ audio solution not only on the G1 and other devices, but _future_ hardware that supports Android by adopting PortAudio and exposing a lean and mean API to developers that then can be further extended with higher level APIs for purpose built processes (speech detection / Jspeex port / DSP processing, even a javax.sound implementation built _on top_ of PortAudio, etc). What is needed is simple and efficient raw audio I/O functionality at the core; PortAudio provides this and only this! For file I/O it's not a bad idea to support Libsndfile (http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/). Between PortAudio Libsndfile raw hardware and file based audio I/O can be solved by time tested open source solutions. Now... I mentioned future hardware supporting Android... I just so happen to be developing an embedded audio hardware product that focuses on advanced spatial processing (think large scale 2D and 3D sound arrays; I have a 32 speaker hemisphere setup at my facility in SF for instance; check here for those interested in an overview I published for the recent AES conference in SF w/ picts equipment specifications --http://research.egrsoftware.com/conferences/2008/aes2008/) and after finally dipping into Android (IE G1 SDK 1.0 finally available and in my hands) I've decided unanimously and almost instantly to ditch my previous path which was Analog Devices Blackfin/ Sharc based processors running uClinux and am switching to the TI OMAP3 3550 and Android as the processor/stack. In doing this I already am adopting PortAudio on my future Android based hardware and this is how I presently plan to expose audio I/O to Android developers on my hardware. So in time this is _going_ to be done already. Seeing as there isn't a published / unified vision on where to take audio I/O for Android as is I do strongly propose supporting PortAudio out of it's shear elegance and wide activity and support in the audio community at large across numerous OSes / desktop to mobile. Not only will it provide a mean and lean audio API at the core, but it will be portable at its core between different hardware configurations on hand sets to say custom built audio hardware like my own efforts which will support high channel count analog, ADAT, audio over HDMI, and even MADI I/O in time.

Hello all,
I am trying to create an MMS message with an audio attachment and a

create a new Message on your own, you are able to attach an audio file
(.amr in this case), but how do you do this programatically?
When I do this code below, I get the MMS Compose Message window, but
it gives an error message: Unsupported picture format. Please select
a different picture.:
final Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.putExtra(sms_body, msgText);
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, audioUri);
i.setType(*/*);
startActivity(i);
When I run this code below (changed MIME type from */* to audio/*
or audio/amr, Android instead brings up the GMail client with the
audio attachment on the email:
final Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.putExtra(sms_body, msgText);
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, audioUri);
i.setType(audio/*);
startActivity(i);
How can I direct the system to create an MMS message with a .amr

[android-developers] Re: imeem and buffering audio with MediaPlayer
Yes, AudioTrack and MediaPlayer will play along very nicely. MediaPlayer uses AudioTrack for its low-level audio interface. Up to 32 tracks of audio can be mixed.

[android-developers] Re: Playing Video via MediaPlayer with Emulator
You left out a key detail - what is the frame size? The specs you quoted are for a G1 device - the emulator is probably not quite that good. In addition to running soft codecs in ARM emulation, it's also doing color space conversion, scaling, and rotation in ARM emulation. On Jan 9, 4:22 pm, Brad A hashbro...@gmail.com wrote: I'm trying to get video functions working on the Android emulator, using the MediaPlayer demo apis app. I'm having a hard time getting a file that is properly encoded. I could use some help understanding the specs and how to meet them. From what I understand, the emulator cannot handle streaming video, but you can play video locally from an emulated SD Card. Preferred format is H.264 Baseline, which is the same as MPEG-4 AVC. The Baseline profile seems to be the key, and what is probably giving me problems. All I really know is that b frames are not supported in that profile. From other information I've seen, looks like you want something with 30 fps and max 600 kbps bitrate. Does that sound correct? I've created the emulated SD Card and pushed my video to it. I've tested other 3gp videos, that at least played (poorly), so I know I have that part right. But with my mp4 video, I either get an error with getVideoSize returned -1, or prepare failed. The file I'm trying to play was originally sourced from a flash video off the web, with ext .f4v. I'm using a program called ImToo FLV Converter (any better suggestions?), and setting the target profile as MPEG-4 AVC. I've specified 30fps and a Level of 12, which seems to correspond to Level 1.2 referenced herehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264. It has an expert panel where it allows me to enter a b_frames value. I put False, although I don't know if that's what I should enter there (other options use False keyword I noticed). I have an email to their support on that. After conversion I pull up the file in quicktime and check the movie stats and it shows the file as a H.264 with 30 fps with a bit rate under 600, seems like I'm close to teh specs and the conversion is successful. Still no cigar when using in Android though.. Can anyone give me some suggestions? I'll post the file if someone has the talent to analze it.

[android-developers] Re: Streaming MP4s on Android
If it won't play from the SD card, it isn't going to stream either. I read the thread you referenced in your original message and it leaves out a lot of details. Information below is for H.264 AVC codec on the G1: Performance is rated for AVC baseline profile Level 1.3. A conservative bit rate for video stream is 384Kbps, although I've pushed it to 600Kbps and beyond. It depends a lot on how good the encoder is at smoothing out complexity - big bursts of complex frames can bring the decoder to its knees and even make the audio break up. Max frame size is 480x320 @ 30 fps. It does not support B-frames, so make sure you disable that in your encoder. For streams, the 'moov' atom must appear before the 'mdat' atom.

small audio files without dropping samples?

[android-developers] Re: Capturing the PictureWasTaken event
The takePicture() function captures an image.The callback occurs when the picture has been captured and encoded. You aren't seeing the callback in your app because you haven't started preview mode. It cannot be used to capture an image from another application. Even this did work, it doesn't necessarily mean the the user has taken a picture. It could be an application like a barcode scanner or OCR that is capturing an image for analysis. I think you want to look at MediaStore. It might broadcast an intent when new media is added, or perhaps you can wake up periodically and scan for new images that have been added since the last time you scanned the database.

[android-developers] Re: Is it possible to put more than 2 video players in one activity?
We have never tested that scenario on the G1 or the emulator and I would be surprised if it worked. The hardware video decoder can only support one decode at a time, which means the second stream would fall back to a software codec. I'm not saying it can't work, but if it doesn't, we probably won't be jumping on this bug for awhile. There is no such thing as an application running in background on Android. Take a look at the Activity Lifecycle documentation on the android.com developer's site. If your application does not have focus, it is not running and you need to save your state because your application may be killed at any time. If you need something to run in the background, it must be a service, and a service is not an application. CPU cycles equate directly to battery life, so services should be lightweight processes. I think you need to scale down your expectations a little, this is not a desktop computer connected to the power grid.

This code kept crashing when the second media player tried prepare() without throwing exception message. Is there anyone who know how to implement this kind of functionality on android? Or, does not Android allow this kind of implementation? Also, another question is, is it possible to run the same application twice at the same time? I mean... as far as I understood, I can make applications run in background by using 'service', so in this way, I guess it would be possible to run the same application when one of them is running in background.

OpenCore is the media playback and authoring engine used to render most (but not all) of the media content for Android. As an application developer, you don't access it directly, you access it through the MediaPlayer interface.

[android-developers] Re: audio recording to split (small) files without dropping or overlapping samples
OK, now I see where you going with it. :)
What you want is coming in Cupcake. There is a streaming interface for
audio input and output that gives you an array of audio samples you
can do your signal processing on.
If you need something for SDK 1.0, there is a MediaRecorder function
called getMaxAmplitude(). You should be able to get what you want by
writing the audio file to /dev/null and calling into getMaxAmplitude
periodically. Take a look at the source code for SoundRecorder on
android.git.kernel.org.
On Jan 16, 3:20 pm, Matt Flax flat...@gmail.com wrote:
we are implementing a sound level meter. For privacy reasons, we don't want
the audio lying around on the disk.
We could do it on the fly without recording to disk, however I don't think
that is possible with the sdk ... is it ?

I was just guessing that maybe the OP's use case wasn't actually recording small files, but rather he was running into a limitation in the framework and searching for a workaround.
