I can't get the panning to work in Naudio.
here is my code:
void Play(double Amp, double Left, double Right)
{
BBeats = new binaural_beats();
BBeats.Amplitude = Amp;
BBeats.Amplitude2 = Amp;
BBeats.Frequency = Left;
BBeats.Frequency2 = Right;
BBeats.Bufferlength = 44100 * 2 * 3; // will play for 3 sec
waveout = new WaveOut();
WaveChannel32 temp = new WaveChannel32(BBeats);
temp.PadWithZeroes = false;
temp.Pan = 0.0f;
waveout.Init(temp);
waveout.Play();
}
I tried 0.0F, 1.0F and 100F but it is not working.
I want it to play completely from one speaker and not from the other one.
or from one channel and not the other channel.
I just spent the entire night with same problem.
AND the solution was a whole different place than expected. I tried using pan and PanningSampleProvider, and MultiplexingWaveProvider, to obtain control over the pan, but I could only hear a minor change in sound, not really a pan. On my output meters, I could see maybe 10% variation.
Now I must translate from Danish, so it might not be 100% accurate. But under your sound device in windows, select the play device you are using, press properties, press extensions, and tick the "Deactivate all sound effects". BAM, 100% control over pan.
Guess windows have some kind of auto-level algorithm between stereo channels selected as default - don't know why and what it should do.
The Pan setting on WaveChannel32 goes from -1 (left only) to 1 (right only)
Or for more control over panning strategies, look at the PanningSampleProvider class.
I had the same problem. I tried to use PanningSampleProvider (NAudio) but it didn't work. I found out the cause was window system setting. Just turn off mono audio from Audio Setting.
Here is my source code:
var _audioFile = new AudioFileReader("E://CShap/Test/speaker.wav");
var monofile = new StereoToMonoSampleProvider(_audioFile);
var panner = new PanningSampleProvider(monofile);
panner.PanStrategy = new SquareRootPanStrategy();
panner.Pan = -1.0f; // pan fully left
WaveFileWriter.CreateWaveFile16("E://CShap/Test/speaker_resampler_L.wav", panner);

I am making a game based on the game AZ on the website Y8, and I am having problems with tile collisions.
the player moves basically by giving it speed when up is pressed, then rotating left or right.
direction = image_angle;
if(keyForward)
{
speed = 2;
}
else speed = 0;
// rotate
if(keyRotateLeft)
{
image_angle = image_angle + 5;
}
if(keyRotateRight)
{
image_angle = image_angle - 5;
}
then I said when the player collides with the tile speed = 0. But the player gets stuck and can't move anymore. is there a better way to do this.
A simple approach would be as following:
Attempt to rotate
Check if you are now stuck in a wall
If you are, undo the rotation.
A more advanced approach would be to attempt pushing the player out of solids while rotating.
Alternatively, you may be able to get away with giving the player a circular mask and not rotating the actual mask (using a user-defined variable instead of image_angle).
I'm working on a new application which can access the video stream from the Kinect V2 sensor. I've got the application working with the standard RGB and Depth video streams... but I am running into an issue with the IR video stream. I've modified the example found here to fit my application... but the pixel values that I am returning as part of my bitmap are always black (ie. value = 0). Here's the part of the code that I have running in my MultiSourceFrameArrived event handler:
using (InfraredFrame IRFrame = framew.InfraredFrameReference.AcquireFrame())
{
if (IRFrame != null)
{
FrameDescription FrameDesc = IRFrame.FrameDescription;
ushort[] IRData = new ushort[FrameDesc.Width * FrameDesc.Height];
IRImgBuffer = new byte[4 * FrameDesc.Width * FrameDesc.Height];
IRFrame.CopyFrameDataToArray(IRData);
int colorIndex = 0;
for (int IRIndex = 0; IRIndex < IRData.Length; ++IRIndex)
{
ushort depth = IRData[IRIndex];
ushort ir = IRData[IRIndex];
byte intensity = (byte)(ir >> 8);
IRImgBuffer[colorIndex++] = (byte)ir; // Blue
IRImgBuffer[colorIndex++] = (byte)ir; // Green
IRImgBuffer[colorIndex++] = (byte)ir; // Red
++colorIndex;
}
gotframe = true;
}
}
It's even more frustrating as I can't seem to launch this in the debugger. If I put a breakpoint in the code to see what the Blue pixel value (for example) is - the debugger never seems to catch it (not entirely sure why). Can anyone help me understand why the intensity value is always 0?
It appears that the issue was happening because of an outdated graphics card. See this thread: Kinect Infrared Camera Not working. I have a relatively new laptop, but once I updated my Nvidia drivers it now seems to be working.
I have a moving camera in camera container which flies arond the scene on giving paths like an airplane; so it can move to any position x,y,z positive and negative. The camera container is looking at his own future path using a spline curve.
Now I want to rotate the camera using the mouse direction but still keeping the general looking at position while moving forward with object. You could say, i want to turn my head on my body: while moving the body having the general looking at direction, i am turning my head around to lets say 220 degree up and down. So i can't look behind my body.
In my code the cameraContainer is responsible to move on a pline curve and to lookAt the moving direction. The camera is added as a child to the cameraContainer responsible for the rotation using the mouse.
What i don't get working properly is the rotation of the camera. I guess its a very common problem. Lets say the camera when moving only on x-axes moves not straight, it moves like a curve. Specially in different camera positions, the rotation seems very different. I was tryiing to use the cameraContainer to avoid this problem, but the problem seems nothing related to the world coordinates.
Here is what i have:
// camera is in a container
cameraContainer = new THREEJS.Object3D();
cameraContainer.add(camera);
camera.lookAt(0,0,1);
cameraContainer.lookAt(nextPositionOnSplineCurve);
// Here goes the rotation depending on mouse
// Vertical
var mouseVerti = 1; // 1 = top, -1 = bottom
if(window.App4D.mouse.y <= instance.domCenterPos.y) // mouse is bottom?
mouseVerti = -1;
// how far is the mouse away from center: 1 most, 0 near
var yMousePerc = Math.abs(Math.ceil((instance.domCenterPos.y - window.App4D.mouse.y) / (instance.domCenterPos.y - instance.domBoundingBox.bottom) * 100) / 100);
var yAngleDiffSide = (instance.config.scene.camera.maxAngle - instance.config.scene.camera.angle) / 2;
var yRotateRan = mouseVerti * yAngleDiffSide * yMousePerc * Math.PI / 180;
instance.camera.rotation.x += yRotateRan; // rotation x = vertical
// Horizontal
var mouseHori = 1; // 1 = top, -1 = bottom
if(window.App4D.mouse.x <= instance.domCenterPos.x) // mouse is left?
mouseHori = -1;
// how far is the mouse away from center: 1 most, 0 near
var xMousePerc = Math.abs(Math.ceil((instance.domCenterPos.x - window.App4D.mouse.x) / (instance.domCenterPos.x - instance.domBoundingBox.right) * 100) / 100);
var xAngleDiffSide = (instance.config.scene.camera.maxAngle - instance.config.scene.camera.angle) / 2;
var xRotateRan = mouseHori * xAngleDiffSide * xMousePerc * Math.PI / 180;
instance.camera.rotation.y += xRotateRan; // rotation y = horizontal
Would be really thankful if someone can give me a hint!
I got the answer after some more trial and error. The solution is to simply take the initial rotation of y in consideration.
When setting up the camera container and the real camera as child of the container, i had to point the camera to the frontface of the camera container object, in order to let the camera looking in the right direction. That lead to the initial rotation of 0, 3.14, 0 (x,y,z). The solution was to added 3.14 to the y rotation everytime i assigned (as mentioned by WestLangley) the mouse rotation.
cameraReal.lookAt(new THREE.Vector3(0,0,1));
cameraReal.rotation.y = xRotateRan + 3.14;
I am struggling in solving this problem.
On my scene, I have a camera which looks at the center of mass of an object. I have a some buttons that enable to set camera position on particular view (front view, back view,...) along a invisible sphere that surroung the object (constant radius).
When I click on the button, i would like the camera to move from its start position to the end position along the sphere surface. When camera moves I would like it to keep fixing center of mass of the object.
Has anyone have a clue on how to achieve this?
Thanks for help!
If you are happy/prefer to use basic trigonometry then in your initialisation section you could do this:
var cameraAngle = 0;
var orbitRange = 100;
var orbitSpeed = 2 * Math.PI/180;
var desiredAngle = 90 * Math.PI/180;
...
camera.position.set(orbitRange,0,0);
camera.lookAt(myObject.position);
Then in your render/animate section you could do this:
if (cameraAngle == desiredAngle) { orbitSpeed = 0; }
else {
cameraAngle += orbitSpeed;
camera.position.x = Math.cos(cameraAngle) * orbitRange;
camera.position.y = Math.sin(cameraAngle) * orbitRange;
}
Of course, your buttons would modify what the desiredAngle was (0°, 90°, 180° or 270° presumably), you need to rotate around the correct plane (I am rotating around the XY plane above), and you can play with the orbitRange and orbitSpeed until you hare happy.
You can also modify orbitSpeed as it moves along the orbit path, speeding up and slowing down at various cameraAngles for a smoother ride. This process is called 'tweening' and you could search on 'tween' or 'tweening' if you want to know more. I think Three.js has tweening support but have never looked into it.
Oh, also remember to set your camera's far property to be greater than orbitRadius or you will only see the front half of your object and, depending on what it is, that might look weird.
this is my first question here, though I've being reading this forum for quite a while. Most of the answers to my doubts are from here :)
Getting back on topic. I'm developing an Android application. I'm drawing a dynamic layout that are basically Galleries, inside a LinearLayout, inside a ScrollView, inside a RelativeLayout. The ScrollView is a must, because I'm drawing a dynamic amount of galleries that most probably will not fit on the screen.
When I scroll inside the layout, I have to wait 3/4 seconds until the ScrollView "deactivates" to be able to scroll inside the galleries. What I want to do is to reduce this time to a minimum. Preferably I would like to be able to scroll inside the galleries as soon as I lift my finger from the screen, though anything lower than 2 seconds would be great as well.
I've being googling around for a solution but all I could find until now where layout tutorials that didn't tackle this particular issue. I was hoping someone here knows if this is possible and if so to give me some hints on how to do so.
I would prefer not to do my own ScrollView to solve this. But if that is the only way I would appreciate some help because I'm not really sure how would I solve this issue by doing that.
this is my layout:
public class PicturesL extends Activity implements OnClickListener,
OnItemClickListener, OnItemLongClickListener {

I had a memory leak on another activity when screen orientation changed that was making it slower, now it is working better. The scroller is not locking up. But sometimes, when it stops scrolling, it takes a few seconds (2/3) to disable itself. I just want it to be a little more dynamic, is there any way to override the listener and make it stop scrolling ON_ACTION_UP or something like that?
I don't want to use the listview because I want to have each gallery separated by other views, now I just have text, but I will probably separate them with images with a different size than the galleries.
I'm not really sure if this is possible with a listadapter and a listview, I assumed that a view can only handle only one type of object, so I'm using a scrollview of a layout, if I'm wrong please correct me :)
Also this activity works as a preview or selecting the pictures you want to view in full size and manage their values. So its working only with thumbnails. Each one weights 40 kb. Guessing that is very unlikely that a user gets more than 1000~1500 pictures in this view, i thought that the activity wouldn't use more than 40~50 mb of ram in this case, adding 10 more if I open the fullsized view. So I guessed as well most devices are able to display this view in full size. If it doesn't work on low-end devices my plan was to add an option in the app preferences to let user chop this view according to some database values.
And a last reason is that during most of this activity "life-cycle" (the app has pics that are relevant to the view, when it ends the value that selects which pictures are displayed has to change and no more pictures are added inside this instance of this activity); the view will be unpopulated, so most of the time showing everything wont cost much, just at the end of its cycle
That was more or less what I thought at the time i created this layout. I'm open to any sort of suggestion or opinion, I just created this layout a few days ago and I'm trying to see if it can work right, because it suits my app needs. Though if there is a better way i would love to hear it
PD: I've being toying to see how much it can actually draw. I managed to draw 530 galleries with 600 thumbnails on the same layout, the app is using 42 mb, and I don't have access to more memory to start my full sized view afterwards :( .I tried to do the same with 1000 but it throws OutOfMemory error, bitmap size exceeds vm budget. Is there any way to make more memory availeable on high-end devices? Or should I try to figure out a way not to draw everything at once? Would the listview work for more than one type of object?
Thanks

Why not make your galleries items of a listview? That way you won't have to inflate all of them immediately and can the advantage of the listview recyling mechanism. Some of the slowness you are seeing might be coming from very heavy memory usage. Galleries aren't exactly light widgets so you might be seeing pauses from heavy GC activity once you stop scrolling. ListView with an adapter would also allow you to lazily bind the Galleries to the list, such that during a fling you aren't doing the expensive binding of the galleries.
