Efficient storage and playback of speech
Hi all, I need to install on the device a few (I guess around 10-20) audio files with some seconds of speech each (it's for GPS navigation). What file format do you suggest to use, considering that one requirement is that the audio is played almost immediately (the lag should be under 1 second) when I request it to? The 22Khz 16bit WAV from the sound recorder sound good, but they are a bit heavy, taking more than 100Kb for 3 seconds of speech. I'm a bit concerned because I'll eventually ship translations for these audio files in different languages, so they might end up taking quite some space.

Re: Efficient storage and playback of speech
Hi, in my opinion ogg/vorbis should be good enough, but it requires to install the extra codecs. If you prefer a proprietary solution mp3 is also quite good, and you can encode on your favourite linux distro withe lame. I don't suggest to try esotheric experiments like g729 encapsulated in a container format.

Routing SMS to another app.
Hi developers, I was wondering whether there is any way I can divert SMS messages from the Inbox to another app that I would be designing for this purpose. Like when a SMS comes, I just need to delete it from the Inbox, extract the sender's name and the message body and store it inside my app. Is there any way to do this? I am potential GSoC student. -- Sukhbir ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Easiest way is to do this with QtMobility messaging API. There QMEssagestore, you can get signal of arriving SMS and then delete it. QTmobility Messagign with Messge Store support will be there in next couple of weeks.

Re: Routing SMS to another app.
Kate, can we use this to hijack voice calls also? Like the SMS thing you mentioned, that before the message comes we can trap the signal. Does the same hold for voice calls too? ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Most importantly, would it be done tentatively by 24th May, i.e. when the development begins? Cause if yes, then it would be awesome. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: Routing SMS to another app.
By 'hijack', I mean that if a voice calls comes, my app can control its state - that is reject it or accept it. Like a call comes, my app rejects it and then makes a note about it. We are working on a call filtering app for Maemo, I guess that should clear up everything.

Like the SMS thing you mentioned, that before the message comes we can trap the signal. Does the same hold for voice calls too? There is not yet voice call support in QtMobility but you can get signal of incoming voice call using libtpsession. It then depends what do you mean hijack. You can Catch SMS or Voice call singal but with these methods you can't prevent other applications like Messaging Ui or Phone UI getting also notification of incoming SMS or Call.
