How to get "stream information" for Sony AVR using Sony Control API? - sony-audio-control-api

I am using Sony STR-DN1080 together with the Sony Audio Control API. Everything is working fine, except that I cannot find how to fetch the "stream information" of the currently playing stream. (The one that shows the audio codec of the currently playing stream using the display button on the front panel, e.g. "Dolby Atmos - Linear PCM DAtmos").

Combining audio and video in Xamarin

How do you combine a custom audio in a video using Xamarin.Forms or in Xamarin.IOS? I don't have any clues how to do this in Xamarin.iOS
The custom audio will be coming from a video stream which I need to parse. This is another problem actually and the parsed audio will then be combined into a video recording from iOS.
The result would be like the musical.ly application.

How to make camera work like scanner in .Net

I have created a webapplication. Basically it gets the barcode string from an uploaded Image. Now I am planning of making it more fancy.
Instead uploading an image (either by iphone /ipad to capture the image or upload from library). I just want to scan the image from camera and get the barcode string to my backend database which will further load the pop up with invoice details.
Could someone share some ideas. I have researched all over the google and found that it can be done with own libraries. But I am not quite sure how to do that. Any tutorials or links that actually scans the barcode not just take a picture, upload and decode would be appreciated.

Identify restrictions in embeddable Youtube videos

I'm having problems identifying playback restrictions of embedded YouTube videos when using YouTube Data API v3.
Example: YouTube ID k85mRPqvMbE and 3n4dXiagrZc seem to share same restrictions when it comes to embedded playback (in my case on an iPhone). The parameters I have looked at are "embeddable" in Video API and videoSyndicated/videoEmbeddable in Search API.
All the "obvious" parameters give the same results for both videos, but while I can play "3n4dXiagrZc" on my device without any problems, "k85mRPqvMbE" refuses to play due to content owner blocking me from watching it (playback through YouTube app or YouTube web works fine though). Please note that I have check the country restrictions as well and my country is not blocked for any of the two.
Any ideas on how to identify videos via the YouTube Data API v3 that are blocked for the reason stated above?
If you do a JSON query, http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?v=2&alt=jsonc&q=videoid you will get the video info. Here look for "embed:allowed", if present the video is embeddable.. Hope this helps! :)

How to make a camera flash turn ON in Nokia 5800 application

I require my application to take 3 pictures via Nokia 5800 phone during night-time. I want to ensure that the camera's flash remains ON while taking pictures. How can I ensure it?
You can use the AMMS(JSR-234) API's FlashControl. Here is a piece of code example that shows its use.
FlashControl flash = (FlashControl)
player.getControl("javax.microedition.media.control.camera.FlashControl");
if(flash!=null) {
flash.setMode(FlashControl.FORCE_WITH_REDEYEREDUCE);
}
You need to use APIBridge.jar , this jar will allow you to call native camera application. So you can call Native Camera, application from your code. Native camera Application has default setting for Flash.
Search on google for APIBridge.jar , you will find it will example. You may also find other useful example for reading inbox, contact list etc.

Is it possible to send custom animation as a video stream in flash?

I'm using NetStream class to create p2p video conferension. Is it possible to add overlay pictures or animation into video captured from webcam and send reencoded stream to other user?
I'm afraid it isn't. you could however send the data along parallely and compose it on the other end. don't know how well synched this will turn out to be in the end.
