Interface Summary

Interface	Description
AsyncMedia	An interface for media elements that provides asynchronous pause and play functionality as well as support for state change events, so that interested parties can register to be notified when state changes between play and pause.
AudioBuffer.AudioBufferCallback	A callback that can be registered to receive notifications when the contents of the AudioBuffer is changed.
Media	Media control interface allows for media playback, recording.

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractMedia	An abstract base class for AsyncMedia.
AsyncMedia.MediaErrorEvent	Encapsulates a media error event.
AsyncMedia.MediaStateChangeEvent	Encapsulates a state-change event on a Media object.
AsyncMedia.PauseRequest	An async resource used to track the progress of a pauseAsync() request.
AsyncMedia.PlayRequest	An async resource used to track the progress of a playAsync() request.
AudioBuffer	This class can be used to capture raw PCM data from the device's microphone.
MediaManager	Allow us to create objects using String URI's or with a stream to the media data. Notice that the underlying platforms contains the actual codecs, therefore you need to play common media file types such as mp3, mp4 to successfully play them across devices on all target platforms.
MediaMetaData	MetaData for use by RemoteControlListener to provide information about the currently playing background media on the device's lock screen.
MediaRecorderBuilder	A builder class to generate a Media recorder with specific settings.
RemoteControlListener	A base class that is meant to be overridden to implement functionality that responds to the device's remote control for media playback.
WAVWriter	A class that can write raw PCM data to a WAV file.

Package com.codename1.media Description

Video and Audio playback support are handled within this package using the Media & MediaManager APIs. Said API's allow for video playback both within a native full screen player and embedded within an application screen.

Simplified video playback API is also available via the MediaPlayer class. Capture/recording is handled separately for the most part thru the Capture API. However, there is some basic low level recording functionality within MediaManager as well.

The code below demonstrates capturing and playing back audio files using this API:

The sample code below demonstrates simple video playback.
