I have made an AR application which play video when the target is detected. But problem is that even when I place camera not in-front of the target image (No Target) its still keep playing until I go again an pause the video by clicking on the target.
If using Vuforia, there is a callback function, OnTrackingLost(), indicating that the tracker has been lost. You can stop the video in the body of this function.
If using another technology and you have to implement such a function by yourself, the obvious solution would be to use a timer. If the target image (previously recognized and tracked) is not detected for a given period of time, the tracker is lost. Again, you stop the video when you realize that the tracked image is lost.

I have a problem using vuforia with unity, I have 10 videos in database and when I start the App the sound from the videos start playing immediately even if there is no cards to read from.
Check you AudioSource components are on the target object, so it gets disabled.
If this happens and you still have the problem, add custom code so that it gets muted on OnTrackingLost and unmute in OnTrackingFound.
The class you are looking for id DefaulTrackableEventHandler, you can inherit from that one and add that code instead to our target using overrides or add code there like GetComponent.
Been scratching my head with this one, to no avail.
Am just trying to find out how to instantly change the current playback position when using the AKAudioPlayer provided by AudioKit.
player.playhead is read-only, so cant be changed.
changing player.startTime whilst the player is already playing seems to change the playback position in terms of the reported .playhead position but the actual audio being played does not change position - am I missing something here?
Obviously I can stop audio and restart at new position but a several second expensive CPU gap is not desirable for a a simple mp3 / wav file player!
Any ideas?
We've added a new player called AKPlayer which will also allow scanning through the file. The player will stream from disk by default. This player is designed to fix some of the shortcomings in AKAudioPlayer.
OK Aurelius pointed me in the right direction of a new class introduced a couple weeks ago called AKClipPlayer
Like the standard Apple AV class you can now set the .currentTime property (in seconds) (the AKAudioPlayer class did not allow this) - it seems to stop playback doing this though so don't forget to .play() your node right after - there is no glitch or pause, is seamless on an old iPhone6S
I'm working with the raw camera image, but need to restart the preview following the capture of an image. When i call startPreview() following takePicture, the android hangs because the camera is till in use. I've waited till after the raw image has been written to disk, but the camera is still in use, so the start preview still hangs the system.
camera.takePicture(null, null, null);
(test needed here){
camera.startPreview();
}
Putting the start preview in the rawcallback hangs the android.
When calling takePicture, the jpegCallback occurs after the camera is finished, so it is safe to start the preview, but this also creates a .jpg.
The question is following the takePicture, is there any way to determine when the camera is idle? (other than the jpegCallback?).
I've found ways around the problem, such as starting the preview on a timer, but still wonder if there is any way to determine the actual status of the camera and a way to test when it is save to restart the preview.
After calling the takePicture() function, you must wait until the JPEG callback has returned for the camera to be ready to use again. There is no way to monitor its status. The documentation explicitly states the following:
After calling this method, you must not call startPreview() or take
another picture until the JPEG callback has returned.
If you need some fast way of grabbing frames (i.e. images) without stopping and restarting the camera preview, you can implement the PreviewCallback interface which will simply allow you to grab preview frames without stopping the preview at all. Just remember that you will need to convert these from YUV format (which is not difficult using Android's YUVImage class.
I have been facing this since so many days but I have not reach to any conclusion.
My problem is : I want to play an mp3 file but not simply by clicking on a play button.
It is this way I want to play it.
*There is a slider that I can drag using finger, I want that the mp3 should play with the frequency with which I am dragging the finger (or speed with which I am dragging my finger, so that it will give an effect of fast forwarding (funny type of voice)) or if I drag slider slowyly the output will be slow *
The problem is the output of the sound is not coming out smooth. its very distorted and disturbed voice.
I want the outuput to be smoother.
Please help. Any suggestions please. Presently I am using AVAudioPlayer and passing the time value based upon slider input to play the file. (It does not seems to be feasible though).
I feel that it is possible using openAL only and no other way. Because using openAL we can modify the frequency of the sound file (pitch)
CAN SOME ONE PLEASE REFER ME A LINK TO openAL implementation for iPhone . I have never played a sound file using openAL
Help!!
You won't be able to do it with AVAudioPlayer, as it does not support pitch operations.
You can load and decode the entire track into memory for playback with OpenAL (which supports pitch), or you can do realtime loading/decoding and pitch changing using Audio Units (MUCH lower level, and more complicated, though).
I want a functionality in which i want to detect if my device is being shaked.The problem is i can detect the shake with didAccelerate method of UIAcceleratorDelegate , but i dont know how to detect if the device is still shaking. I want to play an audio file when the user shakes the device for first time,i have to check if the user is still shaking the device while playing the 1st audio file,if it is still being shaked, then i have to play another file.
See the sample project GLPaint from Apple which was found by visiting http://developer.apple.com/iphone and entering "shake" in the search box. Developer account not required.
You might consider writing a Method that runs in a separate thread that polls wether your device is being shaken every now and then and fire events that you handle somewhere else in your code (or instead of that, handle whatever you want to handle within the threads context itself, even tough i would not recommend doing that).
You just have to make sure, that your "shake-detektor"-thread exits at some point in time, you probably want to do that when the second audio file stopped playing. So your loop could test on that condition.
Hope I could help a bit.
