I would like to record a business meeting a few days from now onto my phone.
Would be handy I think, so the need to type everything down doesn't exist.
What app do you recommend?

I want to add a feature into my app where you can record sound and then use it within the app (MediaPlayer)
How can I do this?
-First, how do I record sound?
-Second, how do I get it into a Mediaplayer?
-Does it have to be saved? or can it go from being recorded -> into app straight away...
Hey, I have a problem with android programing when I try to record and then play the file that was just recored. I can both record and play the sound but the quality stinks. Its not just bad is really hard to listen to and sound abit like its a computer generated voice. I use the andriod SDK-emulator. The code that sets up the recording looks like this;
MediaRecorder recorder = new MediaRecorder();
recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC);
recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.RAW_AMR);
recorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.AMR_NB);
recorder.setOutputFile(path);
recorder.prepare();
recorder.start();
And the code playing the file later looks like this;
MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer(); mp.reset();
mp.setDataSource(path); mp.prepare(); mp.start();
I don't know what part that makes the audio file sound really bad or if its just the emulator that makes it bad and that it would work on a real phone.
I am pulling my hair on this problem from a long time and haven't found a solution yet. I am running Android demo program - APIDemo which is available in android source. For my dev I am using ubuntu, earlier when I used to run SoundRecording example it created a file on sdcard but there was no recording as such which was done in the file but now it started working suddenly. I am still not sure why it happened. But anyways good news is that Microphone is working with android emulator - as opposed to what I read at many forums that it does not.
On other hand whenever I am trying to run the voice recognition application available in same APIDemo its giving me an error - "Recording Parameter not supported: sampelrate 1600, channelcount 1, samplerate 1". Is it that speech recognition cannot take higher sample rate and if it cannot what is the sample rate it requires? My microphone supports only 16000 and higher sample rate.
Do you find that when you take videos using the Desire the sound is really poor (very low)? Initially I thought it was because I had my finger covering the mic (bottom right).

I did and the result was horrible for the sound part. Is there a trick when I want a good quality audio? just keeping the Phone in the air is not enough
Wish there was a way to control the sound input while video recording. Anything above a normal conversation sounds horrible during playback. Anyone know of an app that might handle that?

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to control and adjust the sound level when recording video? I recently took a video at a concert and the sound is clipping really bad. I also tried to connect various external microphones to the phone but then I only get statics / clicking noises.
Is it possible to connect an external microphone to the phone? (except for the one from the hands free set). Especially with the coming HD video recording feature for the X10 the sound quality really doesn't measure up to the video quality.
I am at work and i cant figure out how to turn off the ringer sound while keeping the sms sound everytime i turn the ringer off it for a to silent mode.

1) Comes with native call recording functionality.
2) Support call recording with 3rd party applications.
It would be great if you can lend a hand.Please note that phone/apps that require using speakerphone to record the calls do *not* count. That's a ugly hack I consider marginally useful.Please don't bring legality discussions here as well.Models that have this function built-in.Samsung Galaxy S (South Korean version SHW-M110S, with firmware DH09 or newer).Models that don't have this function built-in but can use 3rd party app to record calls in both ways without turning on speakerphone.HTC Magic (a.k.a. G2); requires root and custom kernel; with rViox
Is there any API supported by Android for recording phone call ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to develop an app which streams live audio/video. I have the mediarecorder to record both audio, video frames , and it does so. But the thing is it records a chunk of audio and then records a chunk of video frames and then records a chunk of audio frames to the file. How do I determine where my audio frames start and where the video frames start?. Also is there any way to figure out the Video frame length ?. Iam really stuck at this point and any help will be greatly appreciated. This is how I initialize the mediarecorder in my app, Code...

Is it possible to do a line-in recording with a droid?
headphone jacks can accept corded headsets with microphones with 3 "contact points" on the plug so you can plug in the corded headset to listen to audio, plus speak through the in-line microphone for calls. So it would seem possible but I can't find anything that says if it can or not

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy galaxy s has recently given me a "warning recording failed" message about a minute or so into recording a video.
Strange thing is that it only happens when recording in HD resoution, and only when the phone is selected as the storage type. It works fine if the SD card is selected, or in any other resolution!
So Im just curious as to what could be causing this? Would it be a result of full memory? Or anythin to do with the lag fix I installed?
Does HTC Desire...
1) Comes with native call recording functionality?
2) Support call recording with 3rd party applications? (not using the speakerphone)

However, she is not impressed with the sound quality (both in terms of what you hear and what the other person can hear). Plus, the speaker phone on the Nexus One is nigh on useless.
I don't have any experience of the Desire HD, or others - can anyone recommend any that they know has good sound?
