Hi, apologies if this question has been asked before; is there anyone working on a flac player for the Android G1? Is anyone interested in working on such a player?

Hi Baris, the Android media API (android.media) does not offer the required capabilities to play software generated PCM samples. The first Android SDK releases contained non-functional classes from the standard JavaSound API (javax.sound), but these were removed in later releases. I opened a bug regarding the JavaSound API a year ago, but it was closed by Google with the comment that they don't intend to implement it: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=60 Tor Baris Baser skrev:> Hi, apologies if this question has been asked before; is there anyone > working on a flac player for the Android G1?
