I have tried to record audio using my app and also just did a build of the simple audio recorder. When you touch the record button, it quits out of the application and indicates an error. Please let me know if there is a way to do this successfully.

Scott: I don’t think the Nook has a mic you can use for recording.

The newest Nook Tablet does have a built in mic. They try to use this as a selling point so you can record yourself reading an eBook to your child for later playback. [import]uid: 79834 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 89375[/import]
Hello Scott,
I’ve just verified that audio recording does work on a Nook Tablet with sample app “Media\SimpleAudioRecorder” that is included with the Corona SDK. I recommend that you have a look at the sample app and try it for yourself. You’ll need to replace its “audio.*” API calls with the equivalent media.playSound() and media.pauseSound() since our audio API is unable to playback the recorded 3GP files, which is the audio format that Android records to. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 89669[/import]
Also, double check that you have the following android permission set in your build.settings file. Otherwise your app won’t have permission to use the device’s microphone.
“android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO” [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 89670[/import]
Hey Joshua,
So I rebuilt the SimpleAudioRecorder for the Nook and this time was sure to double check to make sure the build.settings were correct and the permission was there. They both were setup correct. I then reinstalled it on my Nook.
This time it did allow me to record the sound it it played part of it back. The sound quality was horrible and delayed. After hitting the record/pause button a few times, the app still crashes. Just keep pushing the button and see if this happens for you. Trying to figure out why all this would be.
Thanks,
Scott [import]uid: 79834 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 89828[/import]
I re-tested this today. It is not crashing for me. Nor was the audio playback quality bad. Although I did notice that later recordings (after the first recording) did not fully record everything I said into the microphone. So there is definitely something wrong there. I’ll probably have to contact Barnes & Noble’s tech-support team to see why this is the case.
I’ll write up a bug report on this, but to be honest, don’t expect this to be fixed anytime soon. I recommend that you remove audio recording from the Nook version of your app at the moment.
And regarding the audio lag, the vast majority of Android devices have this issue. It’s not an issue with Corona, but a general Android problem that all Android developers are having problems with. That is, it’s an issue that Google needs to fix. Download “Angry Birds” onto your device and you’ll notice that it has the same problem. That said, our “media” API has the least amount of audio latency, but it is still noticeable and may not be worth changing to that API. I’ll leave that decision up to you.

Hi Joshua,
I have been having the same problem with the Nook audio recording - The SimpleAudioRecorder sample does work but if you modify it as below then it will crash.
The problem seems to be that if you play any audio using audio.loadSound, audio.play then the record will always crash afterwards.
Add this code to the bottom of the SimpleAudioRecorder and add a test.mp3 file to play when the sample starts. Wait for the Test audio to complete and then try to record.
local audioDelegate = function(event)
print("Test audio complete");
audio.stop();
audio.dispose(audioHandle);
audioHandle = nil;
end
local audioHandle = audio.loadSound("test.mp3");
audio.play(audioHandle, {onComplete=audioDelegate}); Any help with this would be appreciated.
I’ve tried playing the audio on a specific channel, reserving channels to play the audio on - nothing seems to work.
My only options at the moment seem to be to replace all audio.play calls with media.playSound (not an exciting prospect)
Cheers, [import]uid: 77943 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119745[/import]
Update to this - if you use any audio functions before trying to record audio on the Nook it will crash.
Simply add an audio call to the bottom of the SimpleAudioRecorder sample and it will crash when you try to record on a Nook Tablet device.
e.g.
audio.getVolume(); or
audio.reserveChannels(0); I guess something is happening during the initialisation of the audio that is causing problems with recording.
Any suggestions?
Cheers, [import]uid: 77943 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119752[/import]
We don’t have anyone available to look into this issue right now, so would you mind doing a couple tests for me first?
Can you provide the log output from your Nook when it crashes please? You can do so via the “adb logcat” command line tool or the DDMS tool that is included with the Android SDK. The log should provide clues as to why it is crashing.
Also, does our sample app “Media/SimpleMixer” work okay on your Nook? That sample app extensively uses the audio API. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119787[/import]
Hi Joshua,
I’ve tried the SimpleMixer app runs fine on the Nook Tablet. Actually our app uses the audio API for audio playback and the media API for playing video and some audio playback. Mixing the audio API and media API are fine in all cases except for when you try to use the media API to record. It only seems to be a problem on the Nook Tablet, we have it running fine on other Android devices.
Let me know if there’s anything else you want me to try out.
The log section where it crashes is (I’ve pasted the entire log at the end of the post incase it’s useful) :

Thanks for posting the results. I think the following log entry is a clear indicator of what’s going wrong…
[lua]E/Omap4ALSA( 1180): Unable to set hardware parameters: Device or resource busy[/lua]
It appears to be a hardware limitation that we’re running into. It can’t stream out to the audio hardware and stream in from the microphone at the same time. I think the only work-around that will work today is to not use the [lua]audio[/lua] API and use the [lua]media[/lua] API instead, just as you said.
I’m sure there is a way for us to work-around this issue on our end, but I suspect it will require a lot of experimentation and won’t be trivial. Don’t count on this happening anytime soon. But the good news is that the [lua]media[/lua] API actually has the less latency on Android compared to [lua]audio[/lua], so that’s a plus. Also, only the [lua]media[/lua] API can play back recorded audio files on Android, which normally records to the 3GP format which the [lua]audio[/lua] API does not support. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119918[/import]
For what it’s worth, this is what I found as well. We released SparkleFish on the Nook Tablet last month. Its basic function is recording audio and playing it back. I too had to use the media interface and not the audio interface. Once I did that, my crashes stopped. I was getting resource busy as well. I was glad that when I wrote the audio portion of the app last year, I put things in different .lua files, isolating the audio calls. Changing to media calls for the Nook Tablet turned out to be pretty easy as a result. I had to add some if statements but at least my codebase is the same for both platforms.
I also found that there is a delay when starting the recording, and that it trims the recording when you stop. I modified the UI in our app so that when you touch the microphone button to start recording, it delays 1-2 seconds. When you touch the microphone button again to stop, it delays 1-2 seconds before actually stopping. The button is animated so that the user knows that something is going on.
Its not as good a solution as we have in the iOS version of the app, but it is workable and I think the UI makes sense.

Thanks for sharing Paul. We do have a bug report written up (case #12503) about recordings getting truncated on Nook. This sounds exactly like what you were running into. I’ll write up what you’ve mentioned as a work-around until we resolve it on our end. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119934[/import]
Hi Joshua,
I have been having the same problem with the Nook audio recording - The SimpleAudioRecorder sample does work but if you modify it as below then it will crash.
The problem seems to be that if you play any audio using audio.loadSound, audio.play then the record will always crash afterwards.
Add this code to the bottom of the SimpleAudioRecorder and add a test.mp3 file to play when the sample starts. Wait for the Test audio to complete and then try to record.
local audioDelegate = function(event)
print("Test audio complete");
audio.stop();
audio.dispose(audioHandle);
audioHandle = nil;
end
local audioHandle = audio.loadSound("test.mp3");
audio.play(audioHandle, {onComplete=audioDelegate}); Any help with this would be appreciated.
I’ve tried playing the audio on a specific channel, reserving channels to play the audio on - nothing seems to work.
My only options at the moment seem to be to replace all audio.play calls with media.playSound (not an exciting prospect)
Cheers, [import]uid: 77943 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119745[/import]
Update to this - if you use any audio functions before trying to record audio on the Nook it will crash.
Simply add an audio call to the bottom of the SimpleAudioRecorder sample and it will crash when you try to record on a Nook Tablet device.
e.g.
audio.getVolume(); or
audio.reserveChannels(0); I guess something is happening during the initialisation of the audio that is causing problems with recording.
Any suggestions?
Cheers, [import]uid: 77943 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119752[/import]
We don’t have anyone available to look into this issue right now, so would you mind doing a couple tests for me first?
Can you provide the log output from your Nook when it crashes please? You can do so via the “adb logcat” command line tool or the DDMS tool that is included with the Android SDK. The log should provide clues as to why it is crashing.
Also, does our sample app “Media/SimpleMixer” work okay on your Nook? That sample app extensively uses the audio API. [import]uid: 32256 topic_id: 22384 reply_id: 119787[/import]
Hi Joshua,
I’ve tried the SimpleMixer app runs fine on the Nook Tablet. Actually our app uses the audio API for audio playback and the media API for playing video and some audio playback. Mixing the audio API and media API are fine in all cases except for when you try to use the media API to record. It only seems to be a problem on the Nook Tablet, we have it running fine on other Android devices.
Let me know if there’s anything else you want me to try out.
The log section where it crashes is (I’ve pasted the entire log at the end of the post incase it’s useful) :

Thanks for posting the results. I think the following log entry is a clear indicator of what’s going wrong…
[lua]E/Omap4ALSA( 1180): Unable to set hardware parameters: Device or resource busy[/lua]
It appears to be a hardware limitation that we’re running into. It can’t stream out to the audio hardware and stream in from the microphone at the same time. I think the only work-around that will work today is to not use the [lua]audio[/lua] API and use the [lua]media[/lua] API instead, just as you said.
I’m sure there is a way for us to work-around this issue on our end, but I suspect it will require a lot of experimentation and won’t be trivial. Don’t count on this happening anytime soon. But the good news is that the [lua]media[/lua] API actually has the less latency on Android compared to [lua]audio[/lua], so that’s a plus. Also, only the [lua]media[/lua] API can play back recorded audio files on Android, which normally records to the 3GP format which the [lua]audio[/lua] API does not support.

For what it’s worth, this is what I found as well. We released SparkleFish on the Nook Tablet last month. Its basic function is recording audio and playing it back. I too had to use the media interface and not the audio interface. Once I did that, my crashes stopped. I was getting resource busy as well. I was glad that when I wrote the audio portion of the app last year, I put things in different .lua files, isolating the audio calls. Changing to media calls for the Nook Tablet turned out to be pretty easy as a result. I had to add some if statements but at least my codebase is the same for both platforms.
I also found that there is a delay when starting the recording, and that it trims the recording when you stop. I modified the UI in our app so that when you touch the microphone button to start recording, it delays 1-2 seconds. When you touch the microphone button again to stop, it delays 1-2 seconds before actually stopping. The button is animated so that the user knows that something is going on.
Its not as good a solution as we have in the iOS version of the app, but it is workable and I think the UI makes sense.
