[Linphone-developers] mediastreamer2 relies on libmedia.so instead of OpenSL ES

[Rimantas Lukoševičius]

Hello,

File androidsound.cpp contains the following line that loads libmedia.so library
as a dependency:
if (!libmedia) libmedia=Library::load("/system/lib/libmedia.so");

However, libmedia is not a part of standard Android API and may not be
present on some devices. Why is it being used instead of OpenSL ES?
OpenSL ES is part of official Android API and, I assume, would provide
support for wider range of devices.

Would it be hard to make code change to make mediastreamer2 library
use OpenSL? Perhaps there were some serious problems with this
approach?
