Class Overview

Encapsulates the information describing the format of media data, be it audio or video. The format of the media data is specified as string/value pairs. Keys common to all audio/video formats, all keys not marked optional are mandatory:

NameValue TypeDescription
KEY_MIMEStringThe type of the format.
KEY_MAX_INPUT_SIZEIntegeroptional, maximum size of a buffer of input data
KEY_BIT_RATEIntegerencoder-only, desired bitrate in bits/second
Video formats have the following keys:
NameValue TypeDescription
KEY_WIDTHInteger
KEY_HEIGHTInteger
KEY_COLOR_FORMATIntegerset by the user for encoders, readable in the output format of decoders
KEY_FRAME_RATEInteger or Floatencoder-only
KEY_CAPTURE_RATEInteger
KEY_I_FRAME_INTERVALIntegerencoder-only
KEY_MAX_WIDTHIntegerdecoder-only, optional, max-resolution width
KEY_MAX_HEIGHTIntegerdecoder-only, optional, max-resolution height
KEY_REPEAT_PREVIOUS_FRAME_AFTERLongvideo encoder in surface-mode only
KEY_PUSH_BLANK_BUFFERS_ON_STOPInteger(1)video decoder rendering to a surface only
Specify both KEY_MAX_WIDTH and KEY_MAX_HEIGHT to enable adaptive playback (seamless resolution change) for a video decoder that supports it (FEATURE_AdaptivePlayback). The values are used as hints for the codec: they are the maximum expected resolution to prepare for. Depending on codec support, preparing for larger maximum resolution may require more memory even if that resolution is never reached. These fields have no effect for codecs that do not support adaptive playback.

Audio formats have the following keys:
NameValue TypeDescription
KEY_CHANNEL_COUNTInteger
KEY_SAMPLE_RATEInteger
KEY_IS_ADTSIntegeroptional, if decoding AAC audio content, setting this key to 1 indicates that each audio frame is prefixed by the ADTS header.

Constants

public static final String KEY_AAC_DRC_ATTENUATION_FACTOR

Added in API level 21

A key describing the attenuation factor allowing to adapt the dynamics of the output to the actual listening requirements. See KEY_AAC_DRC_BOOST_FACTOR for a description of the role of this attenuation factor and the value range.

This key is only used during decoding.

Constant Value: "aac-drc-cut-level"

public static final String KEY_AAC_DRC_BOOST_FACTOR

Added in API level 21

A key describing the boost factor allowing to adapt the dynamics of the output to the actual listening requirements. This relies on DRC gain sequences that can be transmitted in the encoded bitstream to be able to reduce the dynamics of the output signal upon request. This factor enables the user to select how much of the gains are applied.

Positive gains (boost) and negative gains (attenuation, see KEY_AAC_DRC_ATTENUATION_FACTOR) can be controlled separately for a better match to different use-cases.

Typically, attenuation gains are sent for loud signal segments, and boost gains are sent for soft signal segments. If the output is listened to in a noisy environment, for example, the boost factor is used to enable the positive gains, i.e. to amplify soft signal segments beyond the noise floor. But for listening late at night, the attenuation factor is used to enable the negative gains, to prevent loud signal from surprising the listener. In applications which generally need a low dynamic range, both the boost factor and the attenuation factor are used in order to enable all DRC gains.

In order to prevent clipping, it is also recommended to apply the attenuation factors in case of a downmix and/or loudness normalization to high target reference levels.

Both the boost and the attenuation factor parameters are given as integer values between 0 and 127, representing the range of the factor of 0 (i.e. don't apply) to 1 (i.e. fully apply boost/attenuation factors respectively).

This key is only used during decoding.

Constant Value: "aac-drc-boost-level"

public static final String KEY_AAC_DRC_HEAVY_COMPRESSION

Added in API level 21

A key describing the selection of the heavy compression profile for DRC. Two separate DRC gain sequences can be transmitted in one bitstream: MPEG-4 DRC light compression, and DVB-specific heavy compression. When selecting the application of the heavy compression, one of the sequences is selected:

  • 0 enables light compression,
  • 1 enables heavy compression instead.
Note that only light compression offers the features of scaling of DRC gains (see KEY_AAC_DRC_BOOST_FACTOR and KEY_AAC_DRC_ATTENUATION_FACTOR for the boost and attenuation factors, and frequency-selective (multiband) DRC. Light compression usually contains clipping prevention for stereo downmixing while heavy compression, if additionally provided in the bitstream, is usually stronger, and contains clipping prevention for stereo and mono downmixing.

The default is light compression.

This key is only used during decoding.

Constant Value: "aac-drc-heavy-compression"

public static final String KEY_AAC_DRC_TARGET_REFERENCE_LEVEL

Added in API level 21

A key describing a gain to be applied so that the output loudness matches the Target Reference Level. This is typically used to normalize loudness across program items. The gain is derived as the difference between the Target Reference Level and the Program Reference Level. The latter can be given in the bitstream and indicates the actual loudness value of the program item.

The value is given as an integer value between 0 and 127, and is calculated as -0.25 * Target Reference Level in dBFS. Therefore, it represents the range of Full Scale (0 dBFS) to -31.75 dBFS.

This key is only used during decoding.

Constant Value: "aac-target-ref-level"

public static final String KEY_AAC_ENCODED_TARGET_LEVEL

Added in API level 21

A key describing the target reference level that was assumed at the encoder for calculation of attenuation gains for clipping prevention. This information can be provided if it is known, otherwise a worst-case assumption is used.

The value is given as an integer value between 0 and 127, and is calculated as -0.25 * Target Reference Level in dBFS. Therefore, it represents the range of Full Scale (0 dBFS) to -31.75 dBFS. The default value is the worst-case assumption of 127.

The value is ignored when heavy compression is used (see KEY_AAC_DRC_HEAVY_COMPRESSION).

This key is only used during decoding.

Constant Value: "aac-encoded-target-level"

public static final String KEY_AAC_MAX_OUTPUT_CHANNEL_COUNT

Added in API level 21

A key describing the maximum number of channels that can be output by the AAC decoder. By default, the decoder will output the same number of channels as present in the encoded stream, if supported. Set this value to limit the number of output channels, and use the downmix information in the stream, if available.

Values larger than the number of channels in the content to decode are ignored.

This key is only used during decoding.

Constant Value: "aac-max-output-channel_count"

public static final String KEY_AAC_SBR_MODE

Added in API level 21

  • 1 - single rate SBR
  • 2 - double rate SBR
Note: If this key is not defined the default SRB mode for the desired AAC profile will be used.

This key is only used during encoding.

Constant Value: "aac-sbr-mode"

public static final String KEY_AUDIO_SESSION_ID

Added in API level 21

A key describing the audio session ID of the AudioTrack associated to a tunneled video codec. The associated value is an integer.

Constant Value: "audio-session-id"

Constant Value: "bitrate"

public static final String KEY_CAPTURE_RATE

Added in API level 21

A key describing the capture rate of a video format in frames/sec.

When capture rate is different than the frame rate, it means that the video is acquired at a different rate than the playback, which produces slow motion or timelapse effect during playback. Application can use the value of this key to tell the relative speed ratio between capture and playback rates when the video was recorded.
