Android Recording Library
=======================================

Android Recording library offers convenient tools for audio/video recording and playback.

For audio it uses:
* AudioRecord to capture and save audio signal from microphone
* MediaPlayer with MediaController to play recorded audio
* custom Visualizer (like bar chart) to represent audio signal on screen while recording and during playback

For video it uses:
* Camera and MediaRecorder to record a video of specified resolution
* MediaPlayer with MediaController to play recorded video
* custom SurfaceView with adjustable size to properly display Camera preview and recorded video (in portrait and landscape modes)

Record audio: how to use
------------------------

1. Setup VisualizerView

```xml


```

```java
visualizerView = (VisualizerView) findViewById(R.id.visualizerView);
setupVisualizer();

...

private void setupVisualizer() {
Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setStrokeWidth(5f); //set bar width
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
paint.setColor(Color.argb(200, 227, 69, 53)); //set bar color
BarGraphRenderer barGraphRendererBottom = new BarGraphRenderer(2, paint, false);
visualizerView.addRenderer(barGraphRendererBottom);
}
```

2. Start recording thread

```java
private void startRecording() {
recordingThread = new AudioRecordingThread(fileName, new AudioRecordingHandler() { //pass file name where to store the recorded audio
@Override
public void onFftDataCapture(final byte[] bytes) {
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
if (visualizerView != null) {
visualizerView.updateVisualizerFFT(bytes); //update VisualizerView with new audio portion
}
}
});
}

@Override
public void onRecordSuccess() {}

@Override
public void onRecordingError() {}

@Override
public void onRecordSaveError() {}
});
recordingThread.start();
}
```

3. When done, stop recording

```java
private void stopRecording() {
if (recordingThread != null) {
recordingThread.stopRecording();
recordingThread = null;
}
}
```

Play audio: how to use
------------------------

1. Setup VisualizerView

2. Setup AudioPlaybackManager. It will attach MediaPlayer to a VisualizerView

```java
playbackManager = new AudioPlaybackManager(this, visualizerView, playbackHandler);
playbackManager.setupPlayback(fileName); //pass file name of the recorded audio
```

3. Use onscreen MediaController to play/pause/stop/rewind audio

Record video: how to use
------------------------

1. Setup custom SurfaceView (AdaptiveSurfaceView)

```xml

```

2. Setup RecordingManager

```java
videoView = (AdaptiveSurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.videoView);
recordingManager = new VideoRecordingManager(videoView, recordingHandler); //pass reference to custom SurfaceView
```

3. Choose desired video resolution and pass it to RecordingManager, it will adjust size of AdaptiveSurfaceView to properly display Camera output

```java
recordingManager.setPreviewSize(videoSize);
```

4. To start recording use

```java
recordingManager.startRecording(fileName, videoSize)
```

5. To stop recording use

```java
recordingManager.stopRecording()
```

Play video: how to use
------------------------

1. Setup custom SurfaceView (AdaptiveSurfaceView)

2. Setup VideoPlaybackManager. It will attach MediaPlayer to a VisualizerView

```java
playbackManager = new VideoPlaybackManager(this, videoView, playbackHandler);
playbackManager.setupPlayback(fileName); //pass file name of the recorded video
```

3. Use onscreen MediaController to play/pause/stop/rewind video
