If I understand you correctly, you want to mute the mic when the gain (input audio) is low. Am I right?

Android audio framework quality issue?

Current AudioFlinger at stereo 16-bit PCM at 44.1 kHz( ˆ’32,768 to +32,767) is a little bit too out-dated. The audio quality is degraded, especially in lossless have been downsample. In addition, more and more HQ record is launched, not only at CD level. So, it is necessary to get into 24-bit 96kHz( ˆ’8,388,608 to +8,388,607), also get advantage on high SNR too.

I don't know the major obstacle of being upgrade to hi-res audio. I guess hardware limit, bad AD/DA converter, hard to implement on software side,etc.

Android: AOA audio setting

I am using the AOA 2.0 protocol to transfer the Mobile media audio to my head unit. If the same mobile is not connected via BT to the HU, the audio transfer happens perfectly fine with AOA 2.0. But if the mobile is paired using BT to HU the media audio is routed through A2DP. Is this a generic behavior?

Is there a specific rule which protocol to be used when there is multiple protocol available for Audio routing? Or is it a device dependent?

Android: Streaming different audio streams to different output devices

I'm looking for a way to stream different audio streams to different output devices. For example Phone Call going to the Bluetooth but my MP3 player going to the speaker. Is it possible in Android?

Is there any hack in any of the android/alsa layer that can do the trick?

Audio devices on Android

I'm newbie in Android development and I must say, that I'm a little bit confused by its audio framework. I work on porting Android to our custom board and I have almost everything working except of GSM audio.
I suspect that it should be relatively easy to mark some stream as output and some as input for voice calls, but I cannot get into it. I have two PCM interfaces on our SoC, one is used for audio codec and provides speaker and microphone and it is working for me as audio.primary and Android applications can use it. The second one is used for GSM audio interface and I have working it on kernel ALSA level (I can use command line aplay to play and capture sounds). Now I need to connect these two together - to get sound from GSM into speaker and opposite from microphone to GSM.

I think that audio_policy.conf file has to do something with that, but I checked audio.h header and don't know if AUDIO_DEVICE_IN_COMMUNICATION or AUDIO_DEVICE_IN_VOICE_CALL should be used for GSM, what output device, etc.

I know that this description is a bit messed, but I hope that someone can point me to right direction and my question will be clearer then.
