Audio route (the route via which audio is played)
Audio route is the route (speaker or receiver) via which audio is played. It applies only to mobile devices such as mobile phones.
A mobile phone has two speakers: one at the top (receiver) and the other the bottom.
If the audio route is set to the receiver, the volume is relatively low, and audio can be heard only when the phone is put near the ear. This mode has a high level of privacy and is suitable for answering calls.
If the audio route is set to the speaker, the volume is relatively high, and there is no need to put the phone near the ear. This mode enables the "hands-free" feature.
Enum | Value | DESC |
TXAudioRouteSpeakerphone | 0 | Speakerphone: the speaker at the bottom is used for playback (hands-free). With relatively high volume, it is used to play music out loud. |
TXAudioRouteEarpiece | 1 | Earpiece: the receiver at the top is used for playback. With relatively low volume, it is suitable for call scenarios that require privacy. |
TXMediaDeviceType
TXMediaDeviceType
Device type (for desktop OS)
This enumerated type defines three types of audio/video devices, namely camera, mic and speaker, so that you can use the same device management API to manage three types of devices.
Enum | Value | DESC |
TXMediaDeviceTypeUnknown | -1 | undefined device type |
TXMediaDeviceTypeAudioInput | 0 | microphone |
TXMediaDeviceTypeAudioOutput | 1 | speaker or earpiece |
