Android How to convert UDP recieving audio into wav file

I am trying to recieve an streaming audio from my app.
below is my code for recieving audio stream:
public class ClientListen implements Runnable {
private Context context;
public ClientListen(Context context) {
this.context = context;
}
#Override
public void run() {
boolean run = true;
try {
DatagramSocket udpSocket = new DatagramSocket(8765);
InetAddress serverAddr = null;
try {
serverAddr = InetAddress.getByName("127.0.0.1");
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
while (run) {
try {
byte[] message = new byte[8000];
DatagramPacket packet = new DatagramPacket(message,message.length);
Log.i("UDP client: ", "about to wait to receive");
udpSocket.setSoTimeout(10000);
udpSocket.receive(packet);
String text = new String(packet.getData(), 0, packet.getLength());
Log.d("Received text", text);
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(" UDP clien", "error: ", e);
run = false;
udpSocket.close();
}
}
} catch (SocketException e) {
Log.e("Socket Open:", "Error:", e);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
In Received text logger i can see data as coming as
D/Received text: �������n�����������q�9�$�0�/�G�{�������s�����JiH&������d�����Z���������d�����E������C�+

How can store this data into a wav file ?

What you see is the string representation of single udp packet after it was received and the received block has just being released.
It is a very small fraction of the sound you want to convert to wave.
Soon the while loop will continue and you will receive another packet and many more..
You need to collect all the packets in a buffer and then when you think it is ok - convert them to wave file.
Remember Wave is not just the sound bytes you get from udp but also 44 bytes of prefix you need to add to this file in order to be recognized by players.
Also if the udp is from another encoding format such as G711 - you must encode these bytes to PCM – if not you will hear heavy noise in the
Sound of the wave or the stream you play.
The buffer must be accurate. if it will be too big (many empty bytes in the end of the array) you will hear a sound of helicopter. if you know exactly what is the size of each packet then you can just write it to AudioTrack in order to play stream, or accumulate it and convert it to wave file when you will see fit. But If you are not sure about the size you can use this answer to get a buffer and then write the buffer to AudioTrack:
Android AudioRecord to Server over UDP Playback Issues.
they use Javax because it is very old answer but you just need to use AudioTrack instead in order to stream. It is not in this scope so I will just present the AudioTrack streaming replacements instead of Javax SourceDataLine:
final int SAMPLE_RATE = 8000; // Hertz
final int STREAM_TYPE = AudioManager.STREAM_NOTIFICATION;
int channelConfig = AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_MONO;
int encodingFormat = AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT;
AudioTrack track = new AudioTrack(STREAM_TYPE, SAMPLE_RATE, channelConfig,
encodingFormat, BUF_SIZE, AudioTrack.MODE_STREAM);
track.play();
//.. then after receive UDP packets and the buffer is full:
if(track != null && packet != null){
track.write(audioStreamBuffer, 0, audioStreamBuffer.length);
}
You must not do this in the UI thread (I assume you know that).
In the code I will show you - I am getting udp of audio logs from PTT radio. It is encoded in G711 Ulaw . each packet is of 172 bytes exactly. First 12 bytes are for RTP and I need to offset (remove) them in order to eliminate small noises. rest 160 bytes are 20MS of sound.
I must decode the G711 Ulaw bytes to PCM shorts array. Then to take the short array and to make a wave file out of it. I am taking it after I see there was no packet receiving for more than one second (so I know the speech ended and the new block release is because of a new speech so I can take the old speech and make a wave file out of it). You can decide of a different buffer depends on what you are doing.
It works fine. After the decoding the sound of the wave is very good. If you have UDP with PCM so you don’t need to decode G711 - just skip this part.
Finally I want to mention I saw many old answers with code parts using javax.sound.sampled that seems great because it can convert easily an audio file or stream to wave format with AudioFileFormat
And also convert G711 to pcm with AudioFormat manipulations. But unfortunately it is not part of current java for android. We must count on android AudioTrack instead (and AudioRecord if we want to get the sound from the mic) but AudioTrack play only PCM and do not support G711 format – so when streaming G711 with AudioTrack the noise is terrible. We must decode it in our code before writing it to the track. Also we cannot convert to wave file using audioInputStream – I tried to do this easily with javax.sound.sampled jar file I added to my app but android keep giving me errors such as format not supported for wave, and mixer errors when try to stream – so I understood latest android cannot work with javax.sound.sampled and I went to look for law level decoding of G711 and law level creation of wave file out of the buffer of byte array received from the UDP packets .

decode h264 raw stream using mediacodec

I recieve h264 data from server, I want to decode this stream using mediacodec and texture view on android.I got the data from the server , parssing it to get the SPS , the PPS and the video frame data, then I passed this data to the mediacodec , but the function dequeueOutputBuffer(info, 100000) always returns -1 and I get dequeueOutputBuffer timed out.

sorry I can't comment, but I see some probable mistakes in your code :
Your KEY_MAX_INPUT_SIZE is wrong, it must be at least your Height * Width, in your case the Height * Width = 1920 * 1080 = 2073600 > 100000, you feed your decoder input buffer with data that can be > 100000, so since the decoder wants NALUs it probably wouldn't like it.
You do not clear input buffer before pushing data (realy needed?)

How to write “0xFF” as a characteristics value in android BLE?

I am trying to write hex value 0xFF in the fragrance dispenser device using BluetoothGattCharacteristic method setValue(..) .I do get success status code 0 in the call back method onCharacteristicWrite() But device does not perform any action, ideally it should emit fragrance.
below is my sample code to write to the characteristics
private void writeCharacteristic(CallbackContext callbackContext, UUID serviceUUID, UUID characteristicUUID, byte[] data, int writeType) {
boolean success = false;
if (gatt == null) {
callbackContext.error("BluetoothGatt is null");
return;
}
BluetoothGattService service = gatt.getService(serviceUUID);
BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic = findWritableCharacteristic(service, characteristicUUID, writeType);
if (characteristic == null) {
callbackContext.error("Characteristic " + characteristicUUID + " not found.");
} else {
int data2=0xFF;
characteristic.setValue(data2, BluetoothGattCharacteristic.FORMAT_UINT16, 0);
characteristic.setWriteType(BluetoothGattCharacteristic.WRITE_TYPE_NO_RESPONSE);
writeCallback = callbackContext;
if (gatt.writeCharacteristic(characteristic)) {
success = true;
System.out.println(" writeCharacteristic success");
} else {
writeCallback = null;
callbackContext.error("Write failed");
}
}
Please suggest way to write hex data in setValue() method of BluetoothGattCharacteristic .
Thanks

0xFF in
BluetoothGattCharacteristic.FORMAT_UINT16 means you'll send FF 00 because you set it to send a 16 bit unsigned number. To send only 0xFF (and I don't know if that makes a difference) you'll have to set the format to UINT8.
characteristic.setValue(data2, BluetoothGattCharacteristic.FORMAT_UINT8, 0);

You can send byte array to charcteristics.
Convert your hex to byte array using below method.link
public static byte[] hexStringToByteArray(String s) {
int len = s.length();
byte[] data = new byte[len / 2];
for (int i = 0; i < len; i += 2) {
data[i / 2] = (byte) ((Character.digit(s.charAt(i), 16) << 4)
+ Character.digit(s.charAt(i+1), 16));
}
return data;
}
convert your number to hex first ...
public static String toHex(String arg)
{
try
{
return String.format("%01x", new BigInteger(1, arg.getBytes("UTF-8")));
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
return "";
}

Slow H264 1080P#60fps Decoding on Android Lollipop 5.0.2

I'm developing a JAVA RTP Streaming App for a company project, which should be capable of joining the Multicast Server and receive the RTP Packets.Later I use the H264 Depacketizer to recreate the a complete frame from the NAL FU (Keep append the data until End Bit & Marker Bit set )
I want to decode and display a raw h264 video byte stream in Android and therefore I'm currently using the MediaCodec classes with Hardware Decoder configured.
The Application is Up and running for the Jeallybean (API 17). Various Resolutions which I need to decodes are :
480P at 30/60 FPS
720P/I at 30/60 FPS
1080P/I at 30/60 FPS
Recently, Due to System Upgrade we are porting the App to Android L Version 5.0.2. My App is not capable of playing the high resolutions videos like 720p#60fps and 1080p#60fps.
For the debugging purpose I started feeding the Elementary H264 Frames with size from the dump file to MediaCodec and found out the Video is Lagging.
There are timestamps on the sample video I used and it seems the actual time taken to proceed by 1 sec in Rendered Video is more
Below is my sample code and links to sample video
h264 video https://www.dropbox.com/s/cocjhhovihm8q25/dump60fps.h264?dl=0
h264 framesize https://www.dropbox.com/s/r146d5zederrne1/dump60fps.size?dl=0
Also as this is my question on stackoverflow, Please bear with me on Bad code formatting and Direct references.

There are couples of workaround to problem with the above sample test.
Instead of feeding One Full frame to the decoder Inout, I was feeding single of NAL Units at a time. But still the playback was slow and could not match 60FPS
Google has changed the Implementation of Surface BufferQueue from Asynchronous to Synchronous.Hence when we call MediaCodec.dequeueBuffer to get decoded data, the server side (SurfaceTexture::dequeueBuffer) will wait for a buffer to be queued, and the client side waits for that, so that SurfaceTextureClient::dequeueBuffer will not return until a buffer has actually been queued on the server side. Where as in the Asynchronous Mode, a new GraphicBuffer is allocated.

Playing javacv-ffmpeg decoded audio in Android with Audiotrack

i am developing android application in which i need to play AAC live audio stream coming from Red5 server.
I have successfully decoded the audio stream by using javacv-ffmpeg.
But my problem is how to play the audio from decoded samples.
I have tried by following way
int len = avcodec.avcodec_decode_audio4( audio_c, samples_frame, got_frame, pkt2);
if (len <= 0){
this.pkt2.size(0);
} else {
if (this.got_frame[0] != 0) {
long pts = avutil.av_frame_get_best_effort_timestamp(samples_frame);
int sample_format = samples_frame.format();
int planes = avutil.av_sample_fmt_is_planar(sample_format) != 0 ? samples_frame.channels() : 1;
int data_size = avutil.av_samples_get_buffer_size((IntPointer)null, audio_c.channels(), samples_frame.nb_samples(), audio_c.sample_fmt(), 1) / planes;
if ((samples_buf == null) || (samples_buf.length != planes)) {
samples_ptr = new BytePointer[planes];
samples_buf = new Buffer[planes];
}
BytePointer ptemp = samples_frame.data(0);
BytePointer[] temp_ptr = new BytePointer[1];
temp_ptr[0] = ptemp.capacity(sample_size);
ByteBuffer btemp = ptemp.asBuffer();
byte[] buftemp = new byte[sample_size];
btemp.get(buftemp, 0, buftemp.length);
play the buftemp[] with audiotrack.....
}
But only noise is heard from speakers, is there any processing is need to be done on AVFrame we get from decode_audio4(...) .
The Incoming audio stream is correctly encoded with AAC codec.
Any help, suggestion appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You can use FFmpegFrameGrabber class to capture the stream. And extract the audio using a FloatBuffer class. This is a java example
public class PlayVideoAndAudio extends Application
{
private static final Logger LOG = Logger.getLogger(JavaFxPlayVideoAndAudio.class.getName());
private static final double SC16 = (double) 0x7FFF + 0.4999999999999999;
private static volatile Thread playThread;
public static void main(String[] args)
{
launch(args);
}

ImageView imageView = new ImageView();
root.getChildren().add(imageView);
imageView.fitWidthProperty().bind(primaryStage.widthProperty());
imageView.fitHeightProperty().bind(primaryStage.heightProperty());
Scene scene = new Scene(root, 640, 480);
primaryStage.setTitle("Video + audio");
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
playThread = new Thread(() -> {
try {
FFmpegFrameGrabber grabber = new FFmpegFrameGrabber(source);
grabber.start();
primaryStage.setWidth(grabber.getImageWidth());
primaryStage.setHeight(grabber.getImageHeight());
AudioFormat audioFormat = new AudioFormat(grabber.getSampleRate(), 16, grabber.getAudioChannels(), true, true);
DataLine.Info info = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class, audioFormat);
SourceDataLine soundLine = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(info);
soundLine.open(audioFormat);
soundLine.start();
Java2DFrameConverter converter = new Java2DFrameConverter();
ExecutorService executor = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor();
while (!Thread.interrupted()) {
Frame frame = grabber.grab();
if (frame == null) {
break;
}
if (frame.image != null) {
Image image = SwingFXUtils.toFXImage(converter.convert(frame), null);
Platform.runLater(() -> {
imageView.setImage(image);
});
} else if (frame.samples != null) {
FloatBuffer channelSamplesFloatBuffer = (FloatBuffer) frame.samples[0];
channelSamplesFloatBuffer.rewind();
ByteBuffer outBuffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(channelSamplesFloatBuffer.capacity() * 2);
for (int i = 0; i < channelSamplesFloatBuffer.capacity(); i++) {
short val = (short)((double) channelSamplesFloatBuffer.get(i) * SC16);
outBuffer.putShort(val);
}
/**
* We need this because soundLine.write ignores
* interruptions during writing.
*/
try {
executor.submit(() -> {
soundLine.write(outBuffer.array(), 0, outBuffer.capacity());
outBuffer.clear();
}).get();
} catch (InterruptedException interruptedException) {
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
}
}
executor.shutdownNow();
executor.awaitTermination(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
soundLine.stop();
grabber.stop();
grabber.release();
Platform.exit();
} catch (Exception exception) {
LOG.log(Level.SEVERE, null, exception);
System.exit(1);
}
});
playThread.start();
}
#Override

{
playThread.interrupt();
}
}

Because, what data you are getting in buftemp[] is in this AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP format, you have to change it to AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16 format using SwrContext and then your problem will be solved.
