I am searching for the documentation for the new html5 audio added in GWT 2.2 but all I can find is this http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/2.2/com/google/gwt/media/client/Audio.html
That does not really list the available methods though.Is there any better documentation available?
There does not seem to be any methods such as .play() etc???
From that Audio object, you will need to call the getAudioElement() function, which implement MediaElement and has all the functions you're looking for like play(), pause(), setVolume(), getCurrentSrc(), etc.
The official documentation is here.

I have a form application where I use the System voice to read words. However, it sounds robotic, how to make it more human-like?
I am using this:
using namespace System::Speech::Synthesis;
AND this:
SpeechSynthesizer^speaker=gcnew SpeechSynthesizer();
speaker->SpeakAsync(textBox1->Text);
The program works though, but I want it to sound like a human.
System.Speech.Synthesis is very VERY old (15+ years old). Thus, it sounds robotic.
You could try using the latest speech platform from Microsoft. NOTE: I worked on System.Speech and on this latest speech platform (Cognitive Services Speech). You can find samples and instructions on how to use this platform here: https://aka.ms/speech/sdk.
Additionally, if you'd like to hear what these voices sound like, you can listen to samples of them here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/text-to-speech/

I'm starting to port over my web app that I've built with Sencha Touch into the Windows 8 world. I'm seeing a lot of WinJS.UI documentation, basically telling me that there are more 'native' feeling animations and UI actions already build into this framework.
My app is already structured, but I'd like to mix in WinJS.UI if I can. How do I go about doing this? I haven't found a link to download the library or anything of the sort.
For example, this link:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsappdev/archive/2012/05/01/fast-and-fluid-animations-in-your-metro-style-app.aspx
I see that they are using:
<script>
function runAnimation(){
enterPage = WinJS.UI.Animation.enterPage(input);
}
</script>
But I find no documentation on where to include the library.
Little bit lost, any help is appreciated!
These animations are included in the UI.Js from the WinJS Package -- this is the same WinJS that is included in the default Visual Studio Templates. Just create a new HTML Windows Store application, and the details will be there.
Here's your library: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Using-the-Animation-787f3720
You can deploy this on your computer and play with the animations.
I am trying to create an aggregator that pulls song links to a central site from many different blogs using youtube, soundcloud, etc. I was wondering where I can find more info about the js streaming api. I'd like to be able to seek with the js streaming api, along with have a callback be called when that song is done playing.
Two things you'll want to check out:
Our HTML5 Widget has an API that allows you to bind code to events and control the player widget (e.g. seek to a specific point in a track). This'll work if you want to use our player widget anyway.
The JavaScript SDK uses SoundManager 2 under the hood. Certain methods, such as SC.stream will return a soundObject which you can use to seek and bind code to events.
Hope that helps. Comment if you have any questions and I'll edit my answer.
This doesn't really help me. I can't find a single example of stopping a stream anywhere. In fact I can't seem to bind to any of the methods described in sound manager. Neither of these work.

SC.initialize({
client_id: "xxx"
});
// Stream the audio
sound = SC.stream("/tracks/293");
sound.play();
+++
SC.stream("/tracks/293", {
autoPlay: true,
ontimedcomments: function(comments){ console.log(comments[0].body);
},
onplay: function(sound){
alert(sound);
}
});

Really, I just want to create a custom streaming player where I can change the music, and stop and hit play (not in jQuery). I haven't found much on this topic.
use SC object to stop the playback. more information at
http://developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/sdks#methods
SC.recordStop();
top play the song again
'SC.recordPlay();'
hope this helps!
Jesse, Use this to play songs.
SC.get('/tracks/294', function(track){
console.log(track)
// SC.oEmbed(track.permalink_url, document.getElementById('player'))
})
Make sure you have a div#player in your html somewhere. Then, if you uncomment that line you'll see SoundCloud's branded music player.
I'm trying to integrate a mechanism to calculate the BPM of the song in the iPod library(also on iphone).
Searching on the web I found that the most used and reliable libraries to do this things is soundtouch.Anyone has experience with this library? It is computationally possible to make it run on the iPhone hardware?
I have recently been using the code from the BPMDetect class of the soundtouch library succesfully. Initially compiled it on C++, later on translated the code to C# and lately I've been using the C++ code on an Android app through JNI. I'm not really familiar with development in iOS but I'm almost certain that it is possible what you're trying to do.
The only files you should use from the soundtouch source code are the following:
C++ files
BPMDetect.cpp
FIFOSampleBuffer.cpp
PeakFinder.cpp
Header files
BPMDetect.h
FIFOSampleBuffer.h
FIFOSamplePipe.h
PeakFinder.h
soundtouch_config.h
STTypes.h
At least these are the only ones I had to use to make it work.
The BPMDetect class recieves raw samples through its inputSamples() method, it's capable of calculating a bpm value even when the whole file is not yet loaded into its buffer. I have found that these intermediate values differ from the one obtained once the whole file is loaded, which is more accurate, in my experience.
Hope this helps.
EDIT:
It's a kind of complex process to explain in a comment so I'm going to edit the answer.
The gist of it is that you need your android app to consume native code. In order to do that, you need to compile the files listed above from the soundtouch library with the Android NDK toolset.
That will leave you with native code that will be able to process raw sound data, but you still need to get the data from the sound file, which you can do several ways, I think. The way I was doing it was using the FMOD library for Android, here's a nice example for that: FMOD for Android.
Supposing you declared a method like this in your C code:
void Java_your_package_YourClassName_cPlay(JNIEnv *env, jobject thiz)
{
sound->play();
}
On the Android app you use your native methods in the following way:
public class Sound {
// Native method declaration
private native void cPlay();
public void play()
{
cPlay();
}
}
In order to have a friendlier API to work with you can create wrappers around these function calls.
I put the native C code I was using in a gist here.
Hope this helps.
I'm trying to create a RichTextArea (following the GWT Showcase : link )
When I do a code completion of RichTextToolbar, I'm not able to find it. Is this an external library?
And then I googled and found this : google code link. Is this the same library in the Google Showcase? Or is the RichTextToolbar is an old implementation that not being brought to version 2.3?
Update:I tested this and what I feel is although the implementation the same, the UI looks different though.
It seems that they created their own version of RichTextToolbar.
This class is part of the GWT Showcase.
Here is a decent explanation to get the RichTextToolbar working. You take the source code from showcase basicaly.
