Audio differs on mobile devices

Audio on my project (contains voiceover and music track) sound fine when played in the edit suite, or on any computer. But when the file is played through a mobile device the music is way louder and overpowers the voiceover. Is there a fix for this? Is it a mono stereo issue? I know mobile devices often have just one speaker. Thanks!

Could be this phase issue:

Website looks different on mobile devices

I know that I can create phone and tablet versions of my Muse website, but I actually don't want a different layout. When I visit my published desktop site on mobile devices, the site's layout looks justified to the left. I have checked to make sure that the page is centered horizontally in the page properties. It looks fine on desktop browsers, but I have a narrow blank strip on the right side of my pages when viewed on mobile devices.
Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks!

Hello,
I would request you to shae the site URL so that we can take a look at it.
Mostly this happens when you place any object outside the browser fill area. Please make sure everything is in side the browser area.
Please refer to the liks below for more explaination.

How to get mobile model name for different types mobile devices

Hi,
I have checked few thread in this forum about getting mobile model name at server. So far, i noticed the mobile name is set manually in the midlet as user-agent .
HttpConnection connection = null; connection = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url); connection.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST); connection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent","Nokia7110 Profile/MIDP-1.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.0");
i retrieve the header information from servlet like below :-
String userAgent = request.getHeader("User-Agent");
How to get mobile model name for different model devices , not by manually adding the model name in midlet?
Thanks in advance :-)

Hi,
In J2ME there is no method to get the model number from the device. how ever you can use the APIs provided by the device manufacturer if available. But still the APIs will not work with devices from other manufacturer or sometimes it will not work with the devices of the same manufacturer if the API is not supported. so it is better to send the device model name through the header.

Different Text Size for different mobile devices and Tabbed View Application

Hi,
I am developing an sample mobile application to target all mobile devices (IPhone/IPad/IPod and Android).
I am facing an Issue that i am using default text size for the TextInput, TextArea and label but text size look so small for some devices, i discuss this with some(unkown) person(he is an IPhone developer).
He told me that in Iphone development for different devices they use different text size.
So how would I do the same at our Flex Mobile application ?
Please provide me help regarding this
There is one more problem in the application. I have tabbed view application, and i assign the firstview of the tab after 10 or more seconds of interval so that data will load in the application properly.
But issue is that my first tab is not show anything at first go. When we switch the tab then it loads the screen and application work fine.
Please provide me any help so that i can see the first Tab Screen.
Thanks

Hi there. For your font issue you need to set up a variable call it var fontSize or something. Then have an if statement that reads something like if (stage.stageWidth <= 320) fontSize=8 else if (stage.stageWidth > 320 || stage.stageWidth <= 640) fontSize = 12.
Then instead of giving your font a size give it the size of fontSize variable and it will check for stage width or whatever you base it on and apply that size to your text field.
I had done this for an app I did for Kellogg Garden Products but if you notice when you go from portrait to landscape mode the font size increases using this technique.

I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine. The audio disappears

I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine. The audio disappears with both programs. Does anyone know what is happening with my audio capture?

Update, I took the webcam home over the weekend and tried on my home network and the outcome was the same video fine - audio delayed, is this a Skype for desktop issue?

Project freezes every time at same slide position on mobile devices.

(Using Captivate 6.1 on Mavericks running in 2014 iMac. This project contains 32 slides, some with audio (played using the advanced action for Play Audio), and some without, and it works well on desktop Mac and PC. It is published as SWF/HTML5, and the link from the webpage points to the multiscreen.html file.)
In spite of working smoothly on regular desktop computers, it's a different story in mobile devices. When tapping on the smartshape arrow button to advance to the next slide (from slide 5 to 6), the button's appearance changes to show that it's in the down/clicked position as expected, but it stays there and doesn't return to the up/unclicked appearance for anywhere between 3:11 to 3:30 on my iPad 4 (on an iPhone 4 running iOS 6 the screen doesn't advance even after 20 minutes). The slide doesn't advance to the next screen or go back to the previous one. Instead, the browser freezes (tried in Safari and Dolphin on tablet), meaning it won't go back, forward, add a tab, view another tab, etc. After the 3:00+ time period, the button that was in the down position completes the clicking action/sound, and then the browser and slide work properly. I can go back and forth over the problem location after that with no more freezing.
The consistent slide location where the concern occurs seems to suggest that it's not a broadband connection issue (or the delay would happen in other slide positions also). In trying to fix the problem, I deleted the slide where the problem was occurring, but the slide that filled in its vacancy (slide 6 became slide 5 after the deletion) caused the same problem. This leads me to think that it's nothing in the specific slide content causing the issue, but that it has something to do with the 5th slide position. The slides that were in the number 5 position have either text-only or a .png file, and the same smartshape navigation buttons as all the other slides so they don't use more resources than anything else. But, the temporary freezing acts similar to when something is hogging the resources of the browser. It doesn't hog the device resources though, because I can quit the app, or go to other apps during the freeze with no problem. But, after the initial freeze is passed, then there is no more delay at the problem-point or anywhere else in the project.
This pause isn't okay, because users will quit the project if they have to wait that long to advance to the next slide.
I'm at the end of my knowledge and ideas, and need help. Is there anything that I can try to remove this delay from mobile apps?

Sorry this is so wordy. Just hoped to give specific information so a savvy person reading it could know how to help.
Any ideas with the intent to help will be sincerely appreciated.

Adobe Air and Flash Future on Desktop and Mobile Devices

Hello,
iam interested to develop for mobil and desktop devices with AS3 and Flash Professional and i have any question.
I see also many benefits to develop in flash as in java because javas gui development is based on swing a old java graphics engine.
Next reason is the plattform like Linux,Windows,IOS.,the Game Development and other stuff.
With Flash i can create nextgen interactive stunning cool gui interfaces for apps.
I dont know why flash sucks for the market and devices.
My question: is as3 and flash save for the future ?
Make it really sense to learn as3 and Flash ?
I have read many blogs,threads on adobe and other forums year 2012 Adobe stop flash development,
and now 2013 google androids kitkat now have removed api features that kills complete flash !!!
Other comments says Flash is dead for the market!? Many frustradet flash developers he work 10 years and more with flash are crying.
So what is really the Future for the A3 and Flash Development ?
Thanks and greetings

Hi mc_gfx,
> You think i can get started with flash and air development without worries?
Software development always involves risk, so you can't really do much without worries.       AIR in particular is a cutting (bleading?) edge technology. Adobe is attempting to solve a difficult problem with limited resources, and the results aren't always ideal.
If you want to deploy to Android and iOS, and you write two native apps, you face a 100% risk that you'll have to write your app twice. While this may not take twice as long as writing it once, it will come close.
If you use AIR, you only have to write your app once, but you face other risks.
Here's the problem. In AIR, Adobe is attempting to create a framework that translates ActionScript into bytecode for two different platforms. This isn't easy. Every time Apple or Google upgrades their operating system Adobe has to try to refine AIR so that it translates everything correctly for the new OS. AIR also has to maintain backward compatability with all previous OSs (is that the plural of OS?). AIR also has to work with many different models of Android and iOS devices. This includes supporting most, though not all, of the many different capabilities that these OSs support. Adobe, wisely, doesn't try to support every new feature immediately. Instead, it picks and chooses which new features it will support, and how soon. But even taking this approach I have the impression that their task is daunting.
If you research this forum you'll find numerous examples of people complaining about features that don't quite work correctly. For example, I've put ~6 developer months into developing a language learning app, only to find that AIR's MP3 playback support has some limitations which severely impact the playback of voice recordings, which severely degrades the value of my app. I'm hoping that Adobe will fix this bug, but it's been two months now, with no movement. Another serious bug, involving audio recording using the device microphone, took three months to get fixed. During that period I had no idea whether it would get fixed, or whether I'd have to disable an important feature of my app on iOS.
So, you want "without worries"?
Some people are lobbying Adobe to include support for Windows Phone in the AIR framework. IMHO, this is madness. Adobe clearly has limited resources. Let them first focus on making basic features like MP3 playback work properly on the platforms that they already support.
The same issues probably apply to all the other cross-platform development frameworks - Sencha, Xamarin, etc. They face the same difficult technical challenges. I can't speak to the question of how well they're addressing them, but I'd want research them carefully before I invested a lot of time into developing with them.
With regards to AIR, here's my advice: Before you start a non-trivial project using AIR, make a list of all the things that your app will do, then see if you can find existing apps created with AIR that do these things. Make sure that the feature works on both Android and iOS. You won't be able to test on every device that you'd like to support, but pick a few and test on them.
You don't need to worry about your app's logic - ActionScript is great for that - and AIR translates it just fine. But think carefully about your app's 'skin' - all the ways that you want it to interact with the outside world - input and output - and confirm that apps exist that demonstrate that AIR can handle these features. Also think about the app's infrastructure - network interactions - database interactions - etc.
You'll probably end up with a list of features that you haven't been able to confirm. You can vet these by creating a proof of concept that confirms that AIR will support these needs. Do this before you start developing the full app. Once that's done, pray that everything that works now will continue to work with future OSs and devices. Adobe has a pretty good record on this sort of things, but there aren't any guarantees.
Don't worry, be happy        ?

Video latency on mobile device

I am working on an application that connects two peers in audio/video using rtmfp.
When a peer wants to talk with another, first it exchanges peer-id and stream-name with the other and then publishes its microphone/camera (in “live” mode) and plays the other peer stream. As usual in Flash platform. Message exchange in my application is server directed (I am using FMS 4), stream connection is peer-to-peer.
Now, all works fine when the two peer run on Adobe AIR for PC. But when one or both run on a mobile platform (iOS 4.3.3 for example) I experience a strange random latency. Sometime latency on the mobile side is near zero, sometime it grows to 3 even 5 or more seconds. So the communication is not really possible.
I tried to narrow down latency by testing different values of bufferTime both on incoming and on outgoing stream: bufferTime = 0 does not work fine on mobile side; using bufferTime = 0 in the output stream and bufferTime=0.3 on incoming stream works better. With this values when video is not involved all works fine. But when one of the two peer attaches a camera then the result is not always the same: sometime latency is acceptable sometime it is not: bufferLength of the incoming stream (playing stream) grows to 3 or more seconds and then it goes up and down. Using bufferTimeMax do not improve latency. On the pc side bufferLength is near zero.
I noted that on the pc side sometime I got a NetStream.Buffer.Empty on the incoming stream so I am thinking that the problem is related to cpu resources on mobile side (I am using an iPhone 4). To lower resource consumption I set Camera.setQuality(0,100) and Camera.setMode(80,60,3). Microphone is configured to use Speex with encodeQuality = 6. But the problem remains.
Is the video playback of Flash Air on mobile device fast enough?
The two peer in my test are on the same LAN and the mobile device use Wi-Fi access. I use Flash CS 5.5 and AIR 2.7.
Does anyone have an explanation of this behavior?
Thanks
Michelangelo

Hi,
after a month of tests I stopped looking for a solution.
In the last test I tried to split (desynchronize) audio stream and video stream so I had two different play buffers on which I tested different bufferTime values. I was hoping to have a low predictable latency on audio playback (that is more important for my application) and a different not specified latency on video. But my test failed: this solution works as the solution where audio and video have the same buffer and this is very revealing.
I don't know if this problem is related to:
a my error in configuring audio/video stream
a flash player bug (on iOS) in live mode
a high resource consumption of the Sorenson Spark codec implementation on AIR for iOS
I posted my initial question to learn from someone anything useful to distinguish among those alternatives. I tend towards the third.

In reference to the section: "I want to use a backup of my iOS device for a different kind of iOS device" in Apple Support article HT201418 (If you need help restoring from an iCloud backup - Apple Support). That section lists the following as data that won't transfer.

Voice Memos
Apps that aren't compatible with the device you’re setting up
For example, apps compatible only with iPad won't be transferred to your iPhone.
Is an iPhone 5 considered a different kind of device than an iPhone 6?
In an attempt to restore an iPhone 6 from an iPhone 5 back up in iTunes to attain the voice memos from the iPhone 5, the voice memos did not transfer to the iPhone 6 along with other things.
Is an iPhone 5 considered a different kind of device than an iPhone 6?

Video copied off iPhone 4S before ios6 was installed plays fine with Quicktime 7.7.2 on my desktop. Any video taken AFTER ios6 was installed only displays a black screen with audio using same version of Quicktime. Sure hope they fix this FAST!! So much for Apple's quality testing!!

The Xperia Z1 is the best mobile device I have owned so far.....but for one annoying flaw.....

OK, I have owned the Z1 for around 6 months now, and I have LOVED the product...I more or less have no complaints, and its become pretty much my favorite electronic device, except for my gaming PC : D
I use it day in day out, listen to the radio, watch video, surf the web, exepriment with all kinds of the incredible apps, and of course, play games (and it will be gaming that my comment is primarily about)
Thing is....gaming on the Xpeia Z1 is a GOOD experience....excellent GPU performance (though it gets HOT! ...really noticeably HOT..not warm....**bleep** it gets hot! : D), great screen, great sound with headphones (though the headphones jack tends to get in the way when holding the unit in landscape), and if playing without headphones, I find my hand covers the speaker and totally muffles the sound!
These are just small niggles, but nevertheless, things I notice, that I would desire to be slightly changed if I had the chance, but I realise they are issues with the hardware and design, so Im happy to wait unitl I get my next phone (likely the Xperia that comes out in 18 months when my contract is up!) and see how they are dealt with through the evolution of the series.
These are just mega picky things Ive noticed in an otherwise perfect design (for me....just my opinion).
However...the only thing that REALLY REALLY REALLY ticks me off, is a software issue....that has apparently been dealt with via the 'Immersive Mode' feature in Kitkat 4.4.4 (which I am running on my Xperia)....
That is the 'Soft keys' not disapearing in games, and taking up quite a large chunk of screen real estate.....in a very annoying place that depending on the game, can even quite easily be accidentally touched, kicking the unwary user out of the game,! (ARRRGHHH!)
Now I realise that proper support for 'Immersive mode' is actually up to the developers (am i right in thinking this?) and I have tried a couple of games that advertise support, and its all well and good, and works fine, also my comic book reader supports it, and so I get ALL my screen for books (rarely, I use HDX for that), documents and comics....and of course the built in video player has seemingly ALWAYS supported complete fullscreen without these **bleep** buttons getting in the way....
And its such a GREAT screen too....does anyone know exaclty WHY it is, that the Xperia series in particular sacrifices so much screen to these buttons while gaming?
All games Ive tried have the 'Top Bar' (with battery, signal and time etc..nto sure what its called officially)...automatically hidden..so why not the 'bottom bar?'..the menu keys? Especially since the strip of screen is so HUGE!!
To show 3 **bleep** buttons!
What really makes me wonder, is that even my Kindle Fire HDX (which I use primarily for actualy reading books/newspaper/articles) and that I consider an 'inferior' device in most respects..actually has a 'hide soft keys' feature...where in games and apps the 3 buttons and strip of screen are replaced by a very small and unobtrusive little tab...that you simply swipe out to expose the keys....
A GREAT solutuion!
Why isnt there something like this on the Xperia series?
I have deliberately explained myself fully here because I have become very frustrated wth this just recently, as I have been playing a lot of the brilliant games by the developer RORTOS...that makes impressive flight simulator games....games that (Particularly F-18 Carrier landings Pro 2) cannot run very well on my Kindle FIre HDX....
They play beautifully smoothly while maxed out on the Z1 though....(and the same goes for GTA Vice City, that I have been enjoying playing again on mobile on the way to work every morning : D...thanks Sony and Rockstar for a great start to my workday xD)
BUT these great games are being MARRED quite badly by those DAMNED BUTTONS!!
In F18 Carrier Landings Pro 2 and Airfighters (2 RORTOS games that are really superb if you like flight sims) several controls are positioned at the edge of the screen...and the soft keys are right in the way...so they are functionally gettiing in the way...
and whats more, they ruin the original design philosophy of the Xperia Z1...the design philosophy of 'OmniBalance'..because the game image is not equidistant from the left AND the right side...but shunted one side or the other, because of these **bleep** buttons!
(I hope I have explaiend this, and you can picture what I mean...it really irritates me : D)
Yes I am aware of a few apps that are available, both root and non root solutions.. but I have found them all too imperfect...just not good enough, too clunky, too much configuring and messing around to get them to work...and even then they have too much impact on other functions to be worth it for me...since i do use my Z1 for a LOT of different things.....
The ones Ive tried are fine as kind of Dev Tools...but I really love the overall design of the Z1...and I like to KEEP it beautiful and slick to use...as slick as it looks...(yep, I like the cosmetics so much, I cant even bring myself to keep it in a case xD...I just have to be careful with it...and its hardly got a scratch so far...just a few hairline type ones : (....
So...can Sony please add a little feature, like the small tab that I mention above on the Kindle Fire HDX, to hide those keys?
I have messaged RORTOS about them supporting Immersive mode fully, and they said they would look into it (of course they said that!), bur that most devices these days ALREADY hide the soft keys in games...and in my experience, thats true!
Out of 5 or 6 devices Ive played games on, i have to say that the Xperia series is easily the most effected by this issue.
and its ANNOYING as **bleep**...and I KNOW Im not the only one that thinks this...but I havent found an official Sony response (or indeed Android or Developer one) about what is likely to be done.
So does anyone have any news?
Does anyone know why one of the best screens and best GFX performers in a mobile device is still suffering from the soft keys being present at all times in games?....(except every now and then Ive noticed the keys are slightly camoflaged, as white dots....the strip of screen is still taken up, but the actual key icons are reduced to white dots (anyone else seen this?) but this just seems to happen randomly......sometimes it does that, mostly it does NOT...and besides, its not a real solution anyway...since a chunk of screen is STILL used up by it....
Please Sony, you use a custom Android, just liek Amazon do on the Kindle Fire HDX (though admittedly, not quite SO customised xD), and THEY can hide these keys without immersive Mode support...
Why cant Sony?
rant over...
I still totally love the phone..Im only going off on one like this because I love everything else about it...but this one thing I think is actually a pretty big deal.....so please address it ..
Please?
All the ebst
jim.
(PS I am also really harrassing RORTOS about supporting Immersive Mode too....if ALL the Devs supported it, then this wont be an problem (I suppose anyway?)....but Im not sure if there is an issue about how many people are actually USING KitKat 4.4.4...I would guess a LOT but perhaps not quite enough to make a special effort for?....anyway...Im not just picking on Sony : D)
rant really over.....for now.....

You had to have some kudos for the effort put in to your thread as week as the point you make.

Creating a site for mobile devices

Good morning,
I have a number of questions relating to the creation of a
site for mobile devices. My client has given me the assignment to
re-design his current website, and to also create a sub-site
suitable for mobiles. I have spent a number of hours looking around
on the Internet and trying to gain a better understanding of these
issues. Still, a number of questions remain. if you can give me any
additional understanding, that would be great.
Question 1:
Is my understanding correct: I basically need to create two
sites, one for the wide-screen browser, and one for the mobile
browser? I can direct visitors to the mobile site using a CSS or
javascript link - if their browser identifies them as a mobile
browser?
Question 2
Mobile devices come in all sorts of shapes and sizes and
versions. PDA\s and iPhone's have different screensizes and
resolutions that smart--phones, which in turn are different again
from older and simpler phones. Should I design a site for a number
of different types of phones? That would a huge amount of work...
Question 3
I also own Device Central, an App which I should think is
very useful in this situation. But I fail to understand it! OK, so
I can see what my photo or website or flash file looks like on my
Nokia N73 - but I am not designing specifically for that phone. I
also want my design to look good on all the other phones! My client
needs a website that is not tailored to one phone, but to all
phones.
Question 4
And why does Device Central not have profiles for the iPhone?
I would think it is popular enough to warrant its own profile... (I
post this from the Netherlands, where the iPhone is not carried
yet, and so I have only ever held one in my hand). Is this because
the iphone can see regular sites just fine?
Question 5
How does Dreamweaver help me build a mobile site?
Question 6
My client wants to show video on his website. In fact, that's
what this website is all about: showing sports-videos from high
profile sporting events. Which video-formats are most suitable?
Question 7
Do all mobile phones support flash? Or only a few? Or none?
It seems to me that a flash website would allow for more creativity
in the design.
Thanks for any help you can give. Any resources you could
point me to are also very welcome...
Sincerely,
Rogier Bos
Rotterdam, The Netherlands

I'd like to check out the PDA scene some day soon, too. In
the meantime,
there's a recent discussion of this topic here:

With iTunes match, order of the songs in my playlist of mobile devices is not the same as on my computer

In my iTunes on computer, I have several smart play lists. Within each playlist, songs are set to a certain order. Some playlist songs order are organized by name, some playlists are organized by Album, some playlists are organized by artist etc.
When I was syncing my iPhone and iPad directly with my computer, the playlists on my mobile device had same order of songs as on my itunes in computer.
Now, I signed up for iTunes match. With iCloud sync, order of the songs in my playlist of mobile devices is not the same as on my computer. In fact, order of songs within a playlist appears to be completely random. Moreover, order of songs are different in my iPhone 4s and iPad 2
How can I change the order of songs on my mobile devices or how do I make iTunes match to sync my songs such that within a playlist, my songs are in the same order as that of iTunes on my computer.

Thanks mracole. I assume this means order of songs will work with regular play lists I iTunes match. Will try it this afternoon and report.
Please let me know if my understanding is not correct.
Best regards and thanks once again.
