LoudnessCodecController

Kotlin |Java

open class LoudnessCodecController : AutoCloseable

kotlin.Any
↳	android.media.LoudnessCodecController

Class for getting recommended loudness parameter updates for audio decoders as they are used to play back media content according to the encoded format and current audio routing. These audio decoder updates leverage loudness metadata present in compressed audio streams. They ensure the loudness and dynamic range of the content is optimized to the physical characteristics of the audio output device (e.g. phone microspeakers vs headphones vs TV speakers).Those updates can be automatically applied to the MediaCodec instance(s), or be provided to the user. The codec loudness management parameter updates are computed in accordance to the CTA-2075 standard.

A new object should be instantiated for each audio session (see AudioManager.generateAudioSessionId()) using creator methods create(int) or create(int,java.util.concurrent.Executor,android.media.LoudnessCodecController.OnLoudnessCodecUpdateListener).

Summary

Nested classes
abstract	`OnLoudnessCodecUpdateListener` Listener used for receiving asynchronous loudness metadata updates.

Public methods
open Boolean	`addMediaCodec(mediaCodec: MediaCodec)` Adds a new `MediaCodec` that will stream data to a player which uses #mSessionId.
open Unit	`close()` Stops any loudness updates and frees up the resources.
open static LoudnessCodecController	`create(sessionId: Int)` Creates a new instance of `LoudnessCodecController`
open static LoudnessCodecController	`create(sessionId: Int, executor: Executor, listener: LoudnessCodecController.OnLoudnessCodecUpdateListener)` Creates a new instance of `LoudnessCodecController`
open Bundle	`getLoudnessCodecParams(mediaCodec: MediaCodec)` Returns the loudness parameters of the registered audio decoders
open Unit	`removeMediaCodec(mediaCodec: MediaCodec)` Removes the `MediaCodec` from receiving loudness updates.

Public methods

addMediaCodec

Added in API level 35

open fun addMediaCodec(mediaCodec: MediaCodec): Boolean

Adds a new MediaCodec that will stream data to a player which uses #mSessionId.

No new element will be added if the passed mediaCodec was previously added.

Parameters
`mediaCodec`	MediaCodec: the codec to start receiving asynchronous loudness updates. The codec has to be in a configured or started state in order to add it for loudness updates.

Return
`Boolean`	`false` if the `mediaCodec` was not configured or does not contain loudness metadata, `true` otherwise.

Exceptions
`java.lang.IllegalArgumentException`	if the same `mediaCodec` was already added before.

close

Added in API level 35

open fun close(): Unit

Stops any loudness updates and frees up the resources.

Exceptions
`java.lang.Exception`	if this resource cannot be closed

create

Added in API level 35

open static fun create(sessionId: Int): LoudnessCodecController

Creates a new instance of LoudnessCodecController

This method should be used when the client does not need to alter the codec loudness parameters before they are applied to the audio decoders. Otherwise, use create(int,java.util.concurrent.Executor,android.media.LoudnessCodecController.OnLoudnessCodecUpdateListener).

Parameters
`sessionId`	Int: the session ID of the track that will receive data from the added `MediaCodec`'s

Return
`LoudnessCodecController`	the `LoudnessCodecController` instance

create

Added in API level 35

open static fun create(
    sessionId: Int, 
    executor: Executor, 
    listener: LoudnessCodecController.OnLoudnessCodecUpdateListener
): LoudnessCodecController

Creates a new instance of LoudnessCodecController

This method should be used when the client wants to alter the codec loudness parameters before they are applied to the audio decoders. Otherwise, use create(int).

Parameters
`sessionId`	Int: the session ID of the track that will receive data from the added `MediaCodec`'s
`executor`	Executor: `Executor` to handle the callbacks Callback and listener events are dispatched through this `Executor`, providing an easy way to control which thread is used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your application, you can use `Context.getMainExecutor()`. Otherwise, provide an `Executor` that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
`listener`	LoudnessCodecController.OnLoudnessCodecUpdateListener: used for receiving updates

Return
`LoudnessCodecController`	the `LoudnessCodecController` instance

getLoudnessCodecParams

Added in API level 35

open fun getLoudnessCodecParams(mediaCodec: MediaCodec): Bundle

Returns the loudness parameters of the registered audio decoders

Those parameters may have been automatically applied if the LoudnessCodecController was created with create(int), or they are the parameters that have been sent to the OnLoudnessCodecUpdateListener if using a codec update listener.

Parameters
`mediaCodec`	MediaCodec: codec that decodes loudness annotated data. Has to be added with `addMediaCodec(android.media.MediaCodec)` before calling this method

Return
`Bundle`	the `Bundle` containing the current loudness parameters.

Exceptions
`java.lang.IllegalArgumentException`	if the passed `MediaCodec` was not added before calling this method

removeMediaCodec

Added in API level 35

open fun removeMediaCodec(mediaCodec: MediaCodec): Unit

Removes the MediaCodec from receiving loudness updates.

This method can be called while asynchronous updates are live.

No elements will be removed if the passed mediaCodec was not added before.

Parameters
`mediaCodec`	MediaCodec: the element to remove for receiving asynchronous updates

Exceptions
`java.lang.IllegalArgumentException`	if the `mediaCodec` was not configured, does not contain loudness metadata or if it was not added before
