Tizen Native API  5.5
Volume

The Volume API provides functions to check and control volumes.

Required Header

#include <sound_manager.h>

Overview

The Sound Manager Volume API allows you to:

The Sound Manager has predefined types of sounds.(system, notification, alarm, ringtone, media, call, voip, voice).

Current volume level of each type can be checked with sound_manager_get_volume(). To get the maximum supported volume level of each type, call sound_manager_get_max_volume(). The volume level of each type can be adjusted with sound_manager_set_volume().

The type of currently playing sound may be obtained by calling sound_manager_get_current_sound_type().

Functions

int sound_manager_get_max_volume (sound_type_e type, int *max)
 Gets the maximum volume level supported for a particular sound type.
int sound_manager_set_volume (sound_type_e type, int volume)
 Sets the volume level specified for a particular sound type.
int sound_manager_get_volume (sound_type_e type, int *volume)
 Gets the volume level specified for a particular sound type.
int sound_manager_get_current_sound_type (sound_type_e *type)
 Gets the type of the sound being currently played.
int sound_manager_add_volume_changed_cb (sound_manager_volume_changed_cb callback, void *user_data, int *id)
 Adds a callback function to be invoked when the volume level is changed.
int sound_manager_remove_volume_changed_cb (int id)
 Removes the volume change callback.
int sound_manager_create_stream_ducking (sound_stream_type_e target_stream, sound_stream_ducking_state_changed_cb callback, void *user_data, sound_stream_ducking_h *stream_ducking)
 Creates a handle for stream ducking.
int sound_manager_is_ducked (sound_stream_ducking_h stream_ducking, bool *is_ducked)
 Checks if the stream is ducked.
int sound_manager_activate_ducking (sound_stream_ducking_h stream_ducking, unsigned int duration, double ratio)
 Activates ducking, asynchronously.
int sound_manager_deactivate_ducking (sound_stream_ducking_h stream_ducking)
 Deactivates ducking, asynchronously.
int sound_manager_destroy_stream_ducking (sound_stream_ducking_h stream_ducking)
 Destroys the handle for stream ducking.

Typedefs

typedef struct
sound_stream_ducking_s * 
sound_stream_ducking_h
 Sound stream ducking handle.
typedef void(* sound_manager_volume_changed_cb )(sound_type_e type, unsigned int volume, void *user_data)
 Called when the system volume has changed.
typedef void(* sound_stream_ducking_state_changed_cb )(sound_stream_ducking_h stream_ducking, bool is_ducked, void *user_data)
 Called when the ducking activation or deactivation is finished.

Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* sound_manager_volume_changed_cb)(sound_type_e type, unsigned int volume, void *user_data)

Called when the system volume has changed.

Since :
2.3
Parameters:
[in]typeThe sound type of the changed volume
[in]volumeThe new volume value
[in]user_dataThe user data passed from the callback registration function
Precondition:
sound_manager_set_volume() will invoke this callback if you register it using sound_manager_add_volume_changed_cb().
See also:
sound_manager_add_volume_changed_cb()
sound_manager_remove_volume_changed_cb()
typedef struct sound_stream_ducking_s* sound_stream_ducking_h

Sound stream ducking handle.

Since :
5.5
typedef void(* sound_stream_ducking_state_changed_cb)(sound_stream_ducking_h stream_ducking, bool is_ducked, void *user_data)

Called when the ducking activation or deactivation is finished.

Since :
5.5
Remarks:
This function is invoked by the internal thread of the sound manager. Therefore it is recommended not to call functions which update UI in this callback.
stream_ducking is the same handle as the parameter in sound_manager_create_stream_ducking() that registers this callback, so the handle should not be released in this callback.
Parameters:
[in]stream_duckingThe stream ducking handle
[in]is_duckedThe flag whether it's ducked or not
[in]user_dataThe user data passed from the callback registration function
Precondition:
You should register this callback when sound_manager_create_stream_ducking() is called.

sound_manager_create_stream_ducking()
