Listview item highlight color changing while scrolling, and multiple items are getting highlighted where only a single item has been clicked

I searched the google and even the stackoverflow for the solution, but nothing worked and this is really making me insane now. :(
I want the only item to be highlighted is the one which I click on the listview. When I click on the item, it gets highlighted in red color. But once I scroll the list, I find multiple items are getting highlighted with red, and coming back to the item I find it turned to default color, that is non-highlighted mode. Getting crazy over this, working on this from the past 3 hours still unable to find a solution. :( Would really appreciate your advice. I know this is my third post in a day but I am quite new to android, so stumbling over this a few times. My code is stated below-

You save the temporary file as type, m4a:
outputFile = File.createTempFile("sound", ".m4a", sampleDir);
but you have the wrong output format (3gp):
myRecorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP);
Solution:
If you'd like to save the recorded file as a 3gp format, you'd have to save the file as:
outputFile = File.createTempFile("sound", ".3gp", sampleDir);
else, If you'd like to save as an m4a format, you'd have to change the output format as follows:
myRecorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.MPEG_4);
Here's a list of the available formats

I had the same problem. Because I also have MediaPlayer, I solve this problem by the code:
mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.ADJUST_LOWER);
this solve my problem.

send audio file to server after recording in android

Thanks in advance for spent Ur time on my app...
I have an application in which I require to create an audio file after clicking ona button named "RECORD" and send this file to server. The audio file must be send in any android supported audio format.

I am new here. I was asked by my professor to play other audio while the same video is being played(for example a person doesn't understand English and wants the the app to play french ). I have used video view. One possible method was to mute the present audio and play the french audio stored in my sdcard. but video view supports no muting( i couldn't find one). I read that i have to go for media player instead of video view.
Please help...!! what should i do... Thanks in advance.

if you want to get access to the MediaPlayer of a VideoView you have to call MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener and MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener, then you can call setVolume(0f, 0f); function to set the volume to 0.
Do this:
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

Android Media player not playing next stream [duplicate]

I use the following code to record audio files and play. I have a resume function which starts recording again. The audio files are stored in sdcard. My problem is, the files get stored in the sdcard but the file alone play. I need to play all the recorded files one after another. Give suggestions. I am running out of time...

You can use MediaPlayer.onCompletionListener to listen to the event when a track ends, so that you can play the next one
UPDATE
player.setDataSource(path);
player.prepare();
player.setOnCompletionListener(new OnCompletionListener() {
#Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer player) {
player.stop();
// play next audio file
}
});
player.start();
UPDATE 2
Your code in the comment won't work, this could be a solution:
int i = 0;
//somewhere in your activity you start playing your first file
playAudio("/sdcard/MyAudio/RecAudio"+i+".3gp");
public void playAudio(path) {
player.setDataSource(path);
player.prepare();
player.setOnCompletionListener(new OnCompletionListener() {
#Override public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
player.stop();
if(i < numberOfFiles) {
i++;
playAudio("/sdcard/MyAudio/RecAudio"+i+".3gp");
} else i = 0;
}
});
player.start();
}

Yes this code will work fine but i have implemented differently and this will work more fine as given code
because if you play next file inside setOnCompletionListener method then it will call only single time i.e when playing first file it will call completion method and play another file but this time it will not call so you need to create new instance . dont worry just forget use
this
mc = new CountDownTimer(cownDownTime, 1000) {
public void onFinish() {
Log.i("call data hrer","aao bhai");
//initlize();
//updateText();
//startPlayProgressUpdater();
}
i.e play next file inside the Countdown timer finish() method it will run efficiently
