Briefly summarize your issue:

We are designing a speaker running Android system, is there any porting guide for AVS SDK since Android using TinyAlsa instead of Alsa.

Besides, we would like to support Alexa calling with or without video on this product, where we can get that supported AVS SDK?

Thanks.

This is not a confidential topic, but we are not yet ready for a public release, and thus releasing the Android guide in private.

Thanks

@anu-mathur I have filled up the contact form, please get back to me at the earliest. I was investigation on this and was planning to write my own code with recorder and sending data to AVS API etc....but before I jump into that hard stuff, I wanted to know if something is already there which I can leverage, so that I dont end up in doing something which is available out of the box by the SDK.

anoop4real commented 6 years ago

@anu-mathur I am waiting for your input

anoop4real commented 6 years ago

@mmabluesky Dont expect anything from them.... Nobody contacted me. They have enabled Mobile App support in AVS and all, but no guide on how to properly integrate a client

anoop4real commented 6 years ago

@mmabluesky I havent achieved everything but atleast speech/ listening back open custom skills etc works. I havent implemented the downchannel and data sync, I wasnt sure how. My starting point was https://github.com/willblaschko/AlexaAndroid , I went through the code and built a new project with some condensed logic, I am using Kotlin and its a shame that these guys are not responding to queries.... I cant share any code yet

anoop4real commented 6 years ago

@mmabluesky I actually didn't even try to combine with NDK, I am not that good with NDK, so I went exploring multiple samples and reached this state, I still need to handle many directives and true without official guidance its challenging (may be we need to show some money :) ). Did you try asking the question in the forum? If you are ok to share the code, I can try debugging I am planning to do a cross compile for iOS with AVS SDK and see if it works.

Appreciate it.

anoop4real commented 6 years ago

@mmabluesky Can you check this thread? Might be helpful https://github.com/alexa/avs-device-sdk/issues/305

anu-mathur commented 6 years ago

I re-shared the Android guide with all on this thread a couple of days back, and got confirmations! Please let us know if you face any access issues.

anoop4real commented 6 years ago

@mmabluesky I was able to build the sdk with the instruction provided by Amazon guys, I now have the JNI libs and created a new project and added the libs there as sourceSets....now I dont know the next steps he he....can you help me out?
