Enhancement for SoundRecorder component #1212

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I would like to suggest the addition of a few methods to the SoundRecorder 
component.
In addition to Start()and Stop() methods, it would be valuable to add:
Insert() to insert additional recorded content at any point within an existing 
recording.
Overwrite() to overwrite already recorded content beginning at any point in an 
existing recording.
Append() to automatically append additional recorded content to the end of an 
existing recording. 

Adding these methods would allow the device to emulate the functionality "four 
position dictation" switch of professional dictation devices such as those made 
by Phillips and Olympus.  This switch has four positions.  They are: Rewind, 
Play, Stop, Record.  There are also uses for these methods in audio recording, 
allowing the producer to "punch in" content in an existing recording.

I was hoping to write a new program to duplicate those devices on the Android, 
but without those methods, it doesn't seem possible.
