Audio recording in Windows Phone 8 and playing using Media Element
In
my present project had required audio recording for windows phone 8 .
I was happy to find many samples and examples in google.
But
the main problem was I have to store this audio to my DataBase in
binary format.I had a ready WCF service to post the data to Database. I was able to get the buffer but the buffer was not in
the format to play in media element.
It was very tough task to convert the byte array to .wav format in
windows phone 8 . Because the problem was headers missing in the byte
array to convert it to valid .wav format.
But
it was not able to play . But after many search i found out the audio
library for windows phone 8 in codeplex i.e., Coding4Fun.
Find
the url here http://coding4fun.codeplex.com/
A
beautiful library for getting custom controls in windows phone 8.
Here
, I found out that it has audio recorder and returns the data in byte
array format of .wav . Atlast
I find out the required dll.
Shall we start a sample application
- Create application ->select windows phone 8 Template - > Sample-Audio
3. Add buttons to Record,Play,Stop,Clear (as per your requirement)
<MediaElement x:Name="MediaElementPlayAudio" MediaEnded="MediaElementPlayAudio_MediaEnded" MediaFailed="MediaElementPlayAudio_MediaFailed"
MediaOpened="MediaElementPlayAudio_MediaOpened"></MediaElement>
5. Onclick of Record
_recorder.Start(); - microphone is activated and started to record.
6. Onclick of Stop
_recorder.Stop(); - microphone is stopped and de-activated .
And Creating audio stream to store the recorded buffer into IsolatedStorageFileStream
7. on click of Play
setting source of media element the audio stream.
4. Add
Media element to play the audio.
MediaOpened="MediaElementPlayAudio_MediaOpened"></MediaElement>
5. Onclick of Record
_recorder.Start(); - microphone is activated and started to record.
6. Onclick of Stop
_recorder.Stop(); - microphone is stopped and de-activated .
And Creating audio stream to store the recorded buffer into IsolatedStorageFileStream
7. on click of Play
setting source of media element the audio stream.
