安卓录音通话参数

Question

Im developing a DTMF decoder. What I need is to record a voice call and then extract the frecuency range. Everything is working ok but there are some android versions in which I get the following error when I set up the audio source

"Invalid capture preset 3 for AudioAttributes"

In order to get the right parameters I have developed an algorithm:

private static final int[] FREQUENCY = {8000, 11025, 16000, 22050, 44100}; // 44100 is guaranteed to work in all devices

private static final int[] CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION = {AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_MONO,
                                                    AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_STEREO};

private static final int[] AUDIO_ENCODING = {AudioFormat.ENCODING_DEFAULT,
                                             AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_8BIT,
                                             AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT};

for (int i = 0; i < FREQUENCY.length && !found; i ++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION.length && !found; j ++) {
            for (int k = 0; k < AUDIO_ENCODING.length && !found; k ++) {
                try {
                    bufferSize = AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(FREQUENCY[i], CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION[j], AUDIO_ENCODING[k]);
                    if (bufferSize != AudioRecord.ERROR_BAD_VALUE && bufferSize != AudioRecord.ERROR) {
                        audioRecord = new AudioRecord(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.VOICE_DOWNLINK, FREQUENCY[i], CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION[j], AUDIO_ENCODING[k], bufferSize);
                        found = true;
                    }
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    Log.e(TAG, e.toString());
                }
            }
        }
    }

There are no correct parameters found for api 19 or 22 in order to set up an AudioRecord. In every case an exception is raised. I'm quite locked with this. Im not thinking about to use MediaRecoder class because I can not read a buffer directly from the recoder and this is critical for the dtmf decoding proccess. I have also seen some dtmf open source decoder but all of them have this problem

Conclusion

Android official BUG

first

AudioRecord.java It's constructor public AudioRecord(int audioSource, int sampleRateInHz, int channelConfig, int audioFormat,int bufferSizeInBytes) may NOT recommend for use(I think), an IllegalArgumentException was throwed directly, another constructor metho like below(especially CANDIDATE FOR PUBLIC API ):

 /**
 * @hide
 * CANDIDATE FOR PUBLIC API
 * Class constructor with {@link AudioAttributes} and {@link AudioFormat}.
 * @param attributes a non-null {@link AudioAttributes} instance. Use
 *     {@link AudioAttributes.Builder#setCapturePreset(int)} for configuring the capture
 *     preset for this instance.
 * @param format a non-null {@link AudioFormat} instance describing the format of the data
 *     that will be recorded through this AudioRecord. See {@link AudioFormat.Builder} for
 *     configuring the audio format parameters such as encoding, channel mask and sample rate.
 * @param bufferSizeInBytes the total size (in bytes) of the buffer where audio data is written
 *   to during the recording. New audio data can be read from this buffer in smaller chunks
 *   than this size. See {@link #getMinBufferSize(int, int, int)} to determine the minimum
 *   required buffer size for the successful creation of an AudioRecord instance. Using values
 *   smaller than getMinBufferSize() will result in an initialization failure.
 * @param sessionId ID of audio session the AudioRecord must be attached to, or
 *   {@link AudioManager#AUDIO_SESSION_ID_GENERATE} if the session isn't known at construction
 *   time. See also {@link AudioManager#generateAudioSessionId()} to obtain a session ID before
 *   construction.
 * @throws IllegalArgumentException
 */
public AudioRecord(AudioAttributes attributes, AudioFormat format, int bufferSizeInBytes,int sessionId) throws IllegalArgumentException {
}

you can try

/** Voice call uplink + downlink audio source */ public static final int VOICE_CALL = 4;

third

 /**
     * @hide
     * Sets the capture preset.
     * Use this audio attributes configuration method when building an {@link AudioRecord}
     * instance with {@link AudioRecord#AudioRecord(AudioAttributes, AudioFormat, int)}.
     * @param preset one of {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#DEFAULT},
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#MIC}, {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#CAMCORDER},
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#VOICE_RECOGNITION} or
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#VOICE_COMMUNICATION}.
     * @return the same Builder instance.

    @SystemApi
    public Builder setCapturePreset(int preset) {
        //....
        Log.e(TAG, "Invalid capture preset " + preset + " for AudioAttributes");
    }

Answer 2

Some android versions have this feature disabled. If you have the android source code you can make it works. Im currently working with cyanogenmod so I have customized the AudioAttributes.java class in order to not to raise an exception when it happens.

We only have to changhe the setCapturePreset() method in AudioAttributes.java by adding all Audio sources that we want within the switch/case structure.

This is the original:

/**
     * @hide
     * Sets the capture preset.
     * Use this audio attributes configuration method when building an {@link AudioRecord}
     * instance with {@link AudioRecord#AudioRecord(AudioAttributes, AudioFormat, int)}.
     * @param preset one of {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#DEFAULT},
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#MIC}, {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#CAMCORDER},
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#VOICE_RECOGNITION} or
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#VOICE_COMMUNICATION}.
     * @return the same Builder instance.
     */
    @SystemApi
    public Builder setCapturePreset(int preset) {
        switch (preset) {
            case MediaRecorder.AudioSource.DEFAULT:
            case MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC:
            case MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER:
            case MediaRecorder.AudioSource.VOICE_RECOGNITION:
            case MediaRecorder.AudioSource.VOICE_COMMUNICATION:
                mSource = preset;
                break;
            default:
                Log.e(TAG, "Invalid capture preset " + preset + " for AudioAttributes");
        }
        return this;
    }

And I replaced with this:

/**
     * @hide
     * Sets the capture preset.
     * Use this audio attributes configuration method when building an {@link AudioRecord}
     * instance with {@link AudioRecord#AudioRecord(AudioAttributes, AudioFormat, int)}.
     * @param preset one of {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#DEFAULT},
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#MIC}, {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#CAMCORDER},
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#VOICE_RECOGNITION} or
     *     {@link MediaRecorder.AudioSource#VOICE_COMMUNICATION}.
     * @return the same Builder instance.
