Inherited methods

From class


        
          java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.

Constants

BITRATE_MODE_CBR

Public methods

getComplexityRange

Added in API level 21

public Range<Integer> getComplexityRange ()

Returns the supported range of encoder complexity values.

Some codecs may support multiple complexity levels, where higher complexity values use more encoder tools (e.g. perform more intensive calculations) to improve the quality or the compression ratio. Use a lower value to save power and/or time.

Returns
`Range<Integer>`

getQualityRange

Added in API level 28

public Range<Integer> getQualityRange ()

Returns the supported range of quality values. Quality is implementation-specific. As a general rule, a higher quality setting results in a better image quality and a lower compression ratio.

Returns
`Range<Integer>`

getSupportedLayeringSchemas

Added in API level 21

public String[] getSupportedLayeringSchemas ()

Returns the array of layering schemas supported by the encoder. Return empty array if the encoder's layers encoding capability is unknown or not supported.

Returns
`String[]`	This value cannot be `null`.

See also:

for the meaning of the schema.

isBitrateModeSupported

Added in API level 21

public boolean isBitrateModeSupported (int mode)

Query whether a bitrate mode is supported.

Parameters
`mode`	`int`

Returns
`boolean`
