How to get audio amplitude with speech recognizer?

问题

I'm trying to make a custom dialog while speech recognizing instead of using the official one. I got that part, but when then I decided to show the amplitude of the sound while recognizing, in order to make it more fancy, like Google Now search bar does (its a circle around the microphone that grows if voice its louder):

Then I started to code how to obtain the amplitude of the sound, and finally I got it with AudioRecord Class.

The problem comes when I try to mix both (SpeechRecognizer and AudioRecord), because seems like they are not able to share microphone, or something like that...

In logcat I have this error:

and some other times i have this:

And this is how i launch both:

//previously in constructor
speechrec = SpeechRecognizer.createSpeechRecognizer(getActivity());
speechrec.setRecognitionListener(this);
//

public void launchListening()
{       
    if (speechrec.isRecognitionAvailable(getActivity()))
    {
        Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
        intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
        speechrec.startListening(intent);       
    }

    bufferSize = AudioRecord.getMinBufferSize(sampleRate, AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT);// * bufferSizeFactor;
    audio = new AudioRecord(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC, sampleRate, AudioFormat.CHANNEL_CONFIGURATION_MONO, AudioFormat.ENCODING_PCM_16BIT, bufferSize);
    audio.startRecording();

    captureThread = new Thread(new Runnable()
    {
        public void run()
        {
            //calculate amplitude here
        }
    });
    captureThread.start();
}

Any ideas on how creating a custom dialog for speech recognition, where I can show amplitude based on the noise, like Google does?

回答1:

The way to do it is to register a listener with the SpeechRecognizer and visualize the output of onRmsChanged. Note however that:

There is no guarantee that this method will be called.

So the speech recognizer that you are using needs to support this method. Note that the return value of SpeechRecognizer.createSpeechRecognizer(getActivity()) depends on the user's device's configuration.

(You cannot start an AudioRecord while the SpeechRecognizer is recording and vice versa.)
