Android : how to extract audio samples from downloading audio file with MediaExtractor

I'm making a very simple music app, and I try to figure out how to do this:
download an audio file and record the file locally
at any moment, extract the audio frames from the file (during or after the download)
1) For the downloading part, I use Retrofit following this example. To make it short, it allows me to download a file, and recording it locally while it's downloading (so I don't have to wait for the end of the download to access the data of the file).
2) For the frame extracting part, I use MediaExtractor and MediaCodec like this:
MediaCodec codec;
MediaExtractor extractor;
MediaFormat format;
ByteBuffer[] codecInputBuffers;
ByteBuffer[] codecOutputBuffers;
Boolean sawInputEOS = false;
Boolean sawOutputEOS = false;
AudioTrack mAudioTrack;
MediaCodec.BufferInfo info;
File outputFile = null;
FileDescriptor fileDescriptor = null;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
// the file being downloaded:
outputFile = new File(directory, "test.mp3");
try {
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(outputFile);
fileDescriptor = fileInputStream.getFD();
}
catch (Exception e) {}
}
// Called once when enough data to extract.
private void onAudioFileReady() {
Thread thread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
// thread :
Process.setThreadPriority(Process.THREAD_PRIORITY_AUDIO);
// audio :
extractor = new MediaExtractor();
// the extractor only extracts the already downloaded part of the file:
try {
// extractor.setDataSource(url);
// extractor.setDataSource(outputFile.getAbsolutePath());
// extractor.setDataSource(MainActivity.this, Uri.parse(outputFile.getAbsolutePath()), null);
extractor.setDataSource(fileDescriptor);
}
catch (IOException e) {}
format = extractor.getTrackFormat(0);
String mime = format.getString(MediaFormat.KEY_MIME);
int sampleRate = format.getInteger(MediaFormat.KEY_SAMPLE_RATE);
try {
codec = MediaCodec.createDecoderByType(mime);
}
catch (IOException e) {}
codec.configure(format, null, null, 0);
codec.start();
codecInputBuffers = codec.getInputBuffers();
codecOutputBuffers = codec.getOutputBuffers();
extractor.selectTrack(0);
int minBufferSize = AudioTrack.getMinBufferSize(
sampleRate,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_STEREO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT);
mAudioTrack = new AudioTrack(
AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,
sampleRate,
AudioFormat.CHANNEL_OUT_STEREO,
AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT,
minBufferSize,
AudioTrack.MODE_STREAM
);
info = new MediaCodec.BufferInfo();
mAudioTrack.play();
do {
input();
output();
}
while (!sawInputEOS);
}
});
thread.start();
}
private void input() {
int inputBufferIndex = codec.dequeueInputBuffer(-1);
if (inputBufferIndex >= 0) {
ByteBuffer byteBuffer = codecInputBuffers[inputBufferIndex];
int sampleSize = extractor.readSampleData(byteBuffer, 0);
long presentationTimeUs = 0;
if (sampleSize < 0) {
Log.w(LOG_TAG, "Saw input end of stream!");
sampleSize = 0;
}
else {
presentationTimeUs = extractor.getSampleTime();
}
codec.queueInputBuffer(inputBufferIndex,
0,
sampleSize,
presentationTimeUs,
sawInputEOS ? MediaCodec.BUFFER_FLAG_END_OF_STREAM : 0);
// doesn't seem to work:
extractor.advance();
}
}
private void output() {
final int res = codec.dequeueOutputBuffer(info, -1);
if (res >= 0) {
ByteBuffer buf = codecOutputBuffers[res];
final byte[] chunk = new byte[info.size];
buf.get(chunk);
buf.clear();
if (chunk.length > 0) {
mAudioTrack.write(chunk, 0, chunk.length);
}
codec.releaseOutputBuffer(res, false);
if ((info.flags & MediaCodec.BUFFER_FLAG_END_OF_STREAM) != 0) {
sawOutputEOS = true;
}
}
else if (res == MediaCodec.INFO_OUTPUT_BUFFERS_CHANGED) {
codecOutputBuffers = codec.getOutputBuffers();
}
else if (res == MediaCodec.INFO_OUTPUT_FORMAT_CHANGED) {
final MediaFormat oformat = codec.getOutputFormat();
mAudioTrack.setPlaybackRate(oformat.getInteger(MediaFormat.KEY_SAMPLE_RATE));
}
}
What it does:
When onAudioFileReady() is called, this code extracts and plays the audio samples of the file, but only the ones that have already been downloaded. When it reaches the end of the already downloaded part, the MediaExtractor stops (it looks like extractor.advance() doesn't want to continue the extraction...), even if there is more data available...
What I want to achieve:
I want to be able to continue the extraction of the audio samples of the file, as long as there is enough data for it of course.
IMPORTANT:
At that point, you may ask why I don't just use extractor.setDataSource(url). Here are the reasons why:
I want to save the audio file locally, so I can play it later
I want to be able to play the song, even long after the beginning of the download
Does anyone know how to achieve that? Thanks in advance for your help.

Unable to play the pcm file recorded using AudioRecord in Android

I am developing an Android app. In my app I need to record audio using AudionRecord and need to play it. But throwing error when play the recorded pcm file. The main problem is I cannot log know the error as well because I have to test on real device and cannot run on emulator. Because when I run on emulator and record, my application crash.

The problem is with playing the recorded pcm. When I click play button, application throws fatal error and stopped. I cannot log the error as well. The pcm file really exists at the defined path as well. What is wrong with my code? Why can it not play?
As you can see below, pcm file created successfully after recording

Without seeing the Logcat, it is hard to figure the issue in your code. Take a look at this working code on 'How to play pcm files using AudioTrack':
private void PlayAudioFileViaAudioTrack(String filePath) throws IOException

if (filePath==null)

Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks.

I finally solved this problem after pulling my hair out. On Android wear (moto360), in the settings screen there is menu item called "permissions". In here I set the permission of my app to "microphone>enabled". I have no idea when this feature was added, but it solved my problem.

Recorded audio Using AndroidRecord API fails to play

Am developing an android app that has the feature to record the user speech. For this I have used the AndroidRecord Audio API.
Currently the pcm file(recorded audio file - recordedAudio.pcm) getting generated successfully in the sd card. But am not able to play that file. I tried in PC also with windows media palyer and some other players. But nothing helps.
Following are my code snippet.

while (status) {
// reading data from MIC into buffer
minBufSize = recorder.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
try {
// writes the data to file from buffer

You don't have to convert it into WAV and Play.
AudioTrack can directly play the recorded Audio.
Following is a Code snippet to Record audio into a file using AudioRecord and playback the same using AudioTrack API.
The operation is controlled from User using Buttons.
Code
private int BufferSize;
byte[] buffer = new byte[BufferSize];
/* AudioRecord and AudioTrack Object */
private AudioRecord record = null;
private AudioTrack track = null;
/* Audio Configuration */
private int sampleRate = 44100;
private int channelConfig = AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_MONO;
private int audioFormat = AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT;
private boolean isRecording = true;
private Thread recordingThread = null;
The Audio Configuration can change as per device.
Refer to this question.

The above code is working and tested.
You can also do the same, without a file and using a intermediate buffer.

Yes finally I found the answer with the clue of Michael's Comment above.
Am posting here the working code.
The Client Side Code as Follow's,
From the client side am streaming the audio data to the web socket server.
private int minBufSize;
private AudioRecord recorder;
private int sampleRate = 44100;
private int channelConfig = AudioFormat.CHANNEL_IN_MONO;
private int audioFormat = AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT;
minBufSize = AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(sampleRate, channelConfig,
audioFormat);
startStreaming();
public void startStreaming() {
Thread streamThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
byte[] buffer = new byte[minBufSize];
recorder = new AudioRecord(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC,
sampleRate, channelConfig, audioFormat, minBufSize);
Log.d(TAG, "Recorder initialized");
recorder.startRecording();
while (status) {
// reading data from MIC into buffer
minBufSize = recorder.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
mConnection.sendBinaryMessage(buffer);
System.out.println("MinBufferSize: " + minBufSize);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Log.e(TAG, "Exception" + e.getMessage());
}
}
});
streamThread.start();
}
The Server Side Code added implementation as follows,
First the server will create the .pcm from the streamed data. Then from that pcm file it will create the wave file by adding header.
