record 7.1.0

record: ^7.1.0 copied to clipboard

This release marks the end of a long wait, finally completing developments that had been on hold for too long, resulting in countless fixes.

Notables changes:

• No more fuzzy or unknown changes from requested RecordConfig, you can retrieve the effective RecordConfig from onConfigChanged callback. Native platforms now eagerly clamp to device and codec capabilities. While not bullet proof, there's no more surprises.
• InputDevice now provides preferred samples rates and type (sco, builtIn, etc.).
• AAC encoding from Android now provides a stricter output. iOS should now be able to read those files.

Changelog:

• feat: Improve InputDevice description with sample rates and type.
• fix: codec/device caps and surface onConfigChanged to dart side.
• fix: Handles AudioRecorder initialization error.
• fix: Semaphore issues.

• Chore:

  • Massively reworked platform implementations.
  • Android now uses MediaCodec. Package is now written with kotlin (well...).
  • iOS, macOS code now shares almost the same codebase. Unified under record_darwin package.
  • Windows now uses MediaFoundation shipped with all 10 & 11 versions (no more fmedia executable, yeah! Even if do appreciate the work of stsaz).

• Features:

  • feat: Add multiple instance support.
  • feat: Add PCM streaming feature & AAC on Android only.
  • feat: Add auto gain control, noise suppressor and echo cancellation where available.
  • feat: Add amplitude on web (Thanks to youssefali424).
  • feat: Add best effort to adjust sample and bit rates to supported values (Android, iOS, macOS).
  • feat: Add cancel() method to stop and remove file if any.

• Fix:

  • iOS: Should pause/resume recording when interrupted by the system.
  • web: Add duration metadata to created blob (Thanks to youssefali424).

• Breaking changes:

  • BREAK: Record has been renamed to AudioRecorder to avoid confusion with dart v3.
  • BREAK: path is now required on all IO platforms. Set an empty String on web platform. There no more temp file generation.
  • BREAK: start and startStream method parameters are now wrapped in RecordConfig object.
  • BREAK: samplingRate has been renamed to sampleRate.
  • BREAK: vorbis support has been removed. Too few underlying support.

• fix: Amplitude timer is not restarted for subsequent recordings.
• chore: Allow UUID v3 & V4.

• fix: Adding events to amplitude stream after close

• chore: remove pcm8bit. Virtually still available since we have pcm 16 bits.

• fix(web): Multiple issues on web platform.
• fix: Other minor fixes.
• feat(web): Add WAVE encoder support (16 bits).
• feat: add utility method convertBytesToInt16 to convert Uint8List to signed int 16 bits.
