Great hands-on course. Teacher is great, and course materials are well prepared. Only frustrating part is the horrible tooling (Android Studio and above all the resource consuming emulator).

Handheld devices allow users to create and
consume large amounts of rich multimedia content.
And this content includes audio content, like when you listen to music or
record voice notes.
Image content, like when you take and view photos.
And video content, like when you take and view movies.
In this lesson, we'll talk about the multimedia classes that Android provides.
And we'll walk through the APIs and example applications that play audio,
that let you watch audio, let you record audio, and
finally, that let you use the camera to capture images.
So let's get started.
Android provides a number of classes and
capabilities to support the encoding and decoding of common media formats.
Your application can use these to play and record audio, still images and video.
Some of the classes we'll talk about today will be the AudioManager and SoundPool
classes, which allow applications to play sound effects and audio files and to
control a device's audio-related hardware, such as its speakers and wireless headset.
We'll talk about the RingtoneManager and
ringtones, and these are the sounds that you often hear when a phone call arrives,
when a notification is received and when alarms go off.
And the MediaPlayer, which lets applications play audio and video files.
The MediaRecorder, which allows applications to record audio and video.
And finally, we'll finish up by looking at the Camera class,
which lets applications control hard, the hardware cameras on a device.
The first class I'll talk about is the AudioManager.
This class manages basic audio capabilities like manipulating devices
volume, playing system sound effects and changing the device's ringer mode.
Applications acquire a reference to the AudioManager by calling
Context.getSystemsService, passing in the value, Context.AUDIO_SERVICE.
And once it has a reference to the AudioManager, an application can load and
then play sound effects, adjust the device's volume and
control device hardware.
For instance, by muting the microphone or by turning on the Bluetooth headset.
Another related class that can be used to play complex audio is the SoundPool class.
A SoundPool represents a collection of audio samples or
streams, and the SoundPool allows you to mix together and
play multiple samples at the same time.
Let's take a look at our first example application for this lesson.
That application is called AudioVideoAudioManager.
And when it runs, this application presents two buttons, labeled Up and Down,
that are used to increase and decrease the device's volume.
The application also displays a button labeled Play that, when pressed,
plays a button popping sound at the current volume level.
Let's run the application now.
So here's my device.
And now, I'll start up the AudioVideoAudioManager application.
And as promised, displays three buttons, Up, Down and Play.
The application also shows the current volume level on a scale from zero to ten.
Right now, the volume level is set to six.
Let me press the Play button so you can hear the bubble popping sound.
Here goes.
[SOUND] And now, I'll press the Up button a few times to go to maximum volume.
And now I'll press the Play button again.
[SOUND] Now, I'll press the Down button and Play button a few times,
and you should hear the bubble pop at increasingly lower volumes.
Here goes.
[SOUND] Let's look at the source code for this application.
Here's the AudioVideoAudioManager application open in the IDE.
Now I'll open the main activity.
Here, the onCreate method gets a reference to the AudioManager.
Next, it begins to set up its user interface.
First, there's the TextView for displaying the current volume level.
Next, there's the upButton and when clicked, this code plays a key clicking
sound and then tries to increase the volume level and update the level display.
Next, we see the downButton.
And this is almost the same as the code for the upButton, but
it decreases rather than increases the volume level.
Next, the code gets a reference to the playButton and
then disables the button for now.
After that, the code creates a SoundPool object,
which it will use to play the bubble popping sound.
The parameters for this SoundPool object indicate that it will have only
one audio stream, and that the stream is played on the audio music stream.
Next, the code loads the bubble pop sound.
Loading the sound is an asynchronous operation.
So, the code sets an OnLoadCompleteListener, which will
be called when the sound is finally loaded.
And when the onLoadComplete method is called the code checks whether
the operation was successful.
And if so, it enables the playButton.
Earlier, the code disabled the playButton.
And it did it to make sure that it didn't try to play the sound until the sound was
properly loaded.
Next, the code sets a listener on the playButton.
When pressed, this code plays the bubble popping sound at the current volume level.
And after that, the code requests audio focus, which means that it
essentially wants to be in charge of the audio being played by the device.
There's also some code in the onResume and onPause methods.
The onResume method turns on the device's speakerphone and then
loads the system's sound effects, like the key click sound effect that we used above.
The onPause method begins by unloading the SoundPool and releasing its resources.
And then it turns off the device's speakerphone and
unloads the system's sound effects.
The next classes we'll talk about are Ringtone and the RingtoneManager.
The RingtoneManagerr provides access to the audio clips that you hear,
for example, when a phone call arrives,
when you receive a new email message, or when an alarm goes off.
And through the RingtoneManager, applications can get and
set various ringtones, and they can play and stop playing them.
Let's see an example application that uses the RingtoneManager.
Now, this application is called AudioVideoRingtoneManager.
And this application presents three buttons,
respectively labeled Ringtone, Notification and Alarm.
Pressing one of these buttons causes the associated default ringtone to play.
Let's give it a try.
Now, I'll start up the AudioVideoRingtoneManager application.
As you can see, it displays the three buttons, Ringtone, Notification and Alarm.
Let me press some of these buttons.
First, let's listen to the default ringtone as I press the Ringtone button.
[SOUND] Now, let's try
the default notification ringtone.
[SOUND] And finally, let's try the default alarm ringtone.
[SOUND] After the segment is over, try downloading,
installing and running this application on your device.
And then, go to your Settings application and change your default ringtones.
When you then rerun this application,
you should see that it plays your new ringtones, not your old ones.
So let's look at the source code for this application.
Here's the AudioVideoRingtoneManager application open in the IDE.
Now, I'll open the main activity.
In the onCreate method, the code creates three buttons.
Let's look at the ringtoneButton as an example.
Now here, we see that when this button is clicked, the code uses
the RingtoneManager to get the URI for the default phone ringer ringtone.
Next, the code gets the ringtone associated with that URI by calling
the RingtoneManager.getRingTone method, passing in the URI.
The result of all this is then passed into a method called playRingtone.
Let's scroll down to that method.
Now, this method checks to see whether the ringtone is currently playing.
And if one is,
then that ringtone is stopped by calling the Ringtone class' stop method.
The current ringtone is then set in the mCurrentRingtone variable.
And if the current ringtone is not null, then the code will start playing it.
