Declare the intended behavior of the application with regards to audio ducking.

Public constructors

Builder

Added in API level 26
Builder(focusGain: Int)

Constructs a new Builder, and specifies how audio focus will be requested. Valid values for focus requests are AudioManager#AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN, AudioManager#AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN_TRANSIENT, AudioManager#AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN_TRANSIENT_MAY_DUCK, and AudioManager#AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN_TRANSIENT_EXCLUSIVE.

By default there is no focus change listener, delayed focus is not supported, ducking is suitable for the application, and the AudioAttributes have a usage of AudioAttributes#USAGE_MEDIA.

Parameters
focusGain Int: the type of audio focus gain that will be requested
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException thrown when an invalid focus gain type is used

Builder

Added in API level 26
Builder(requestToCopy: AudioFocusRequest)

Constructs a new Builder with all the properties of the AudioFocusRequest passed as parameter. Use this method when you want a new request to differ only by some properties.

Parameters
requestToCopy AudioFocusRequest: the non-null AudioFocusRequest to build a duplicate from.
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException thrown when a null AudioFocusRequest is used.

Public methods

build

Added in API level 26
fun build(): AudioFocusRequest!

Builds a new AudioFocusRequest instance combining all the information gathered by this Builder's configuration methods.

Return
AudioFocusRequest! the AudioFocusRequest instance qualified by all the properties set on this Builder.
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalStateException thrown when attempting to build a focus request that is set to accept delayed focus, or to pause on duck, but no focus change listener was set.

setAcceptsDelayedFocusGain

Added in API level 26
fun setAcceptsDelayedFocusGain(acceptsDelayedFocusGain: Boolean): AudioFocusRequest.Builder

Marks this focus request as compatible with delayed focus. See more details about delayed focus in the AudioFocusRequest class documentation.

Parameters
acceptsDelayedFocusGain Boolean: use true if the application supports delayed focus. If true, note that you must also set a focus listener to be notified of delayed focus gain, with setOnAudioFocusChangeListener(android.media.AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener,android.os.Handler).
Return
AudioFocusRequest.Builder this Builder instance This value cannot be null.

setAudioAttributes

Added in API level 26
fun setAudioAttributes(attributes: AudioAttributes): AudioFocusRequest.Builder

Sets the AudioAttributes to be associated with the focus request, and which describe the use case for which focus is requested. As the focus requests typically precede audio playback, this information is used on certain platforms to declare the subsequent playback use case. It is therefore good practice to use in this method the same AudioAttributes as used for playback, see for example MediaPlayer#setAudioAttributes(AudioAttributes) in MediaPlayer or AudioTrack.Builder#setAudioAttributes(AudioAttributes) in AudioTrack.

Parameters
attributes AudioAttributes: the AudioAttributes for the focus request. This value cannot be null.
Return
AudioFocusRequest.Builder this Builder instance. This value cannot be null.
Exceptions
java.lang.NullPointerException thrown when using null for the attributes.

setFocusGain

Added in API level 26
fun setFocusGain(focusGain: Int): AudioFocusRequest.Builder

Sets the type of focus gain that will be requested. Use this method to replace the focus gain when building a request by modifying an existing AudioFocusRequest instance.

Parameters
focusGain Int: the type of audio focus gain that will be requested.
Return
AudioFocusRequest.Builder this Builder instance This value cannot be null.
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException thrown when an invalid focus gain type is used

setForceDucking

Added in API level 28
fun setForceDucking(forceDucking: Boolean): AudioFocusRequest.Builder

Marks this focus request as forcing ducking, regardless of the conditions in which the system would or would not enforce ducking. Forcing ducking will only be honored when requesting AUDIOFOCUS_GAIN_TRANSIENT_MAY_DUCK with an AudioAttributes usage of AudioAttributes#USAGE_ASSISTANCE_ACCESSIBILITY, coming from an accessibility service, and will be ignored otherwise.

Parameters
forceDucking Boolean: true to force ducking
Return
AudioFocusRequest.Builder this Builder instance This value cannot be null.

setOnAudioFocusChangeListener

Added in API level 26
fun setOnAudioFocusChangeListener(listener: AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener): AudioFocusRequest.Builder

Sets the listener called when audio focus changes after being requested with AudioManager#requestAudioFocus(AudioFocusRequest), and until being abandoned with AudioManager#abandonAudioFocusRequest(AudioFocusRequest). Note that only focus changes (gains and losses) affecting the focus owner are reported, not gains and losses of other focus requesters in the system.
Notifications are delivered on the Looper associated with the one of the creation of the AudioManager used to request focus (see AudioManager#requestAudioFocus(AudioFocusRequest)).

Parameters
listener AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener: the listener receiving the focus change notifications. This value cannot be null.
Return
AudioFocusRequest.Builder this Builder instance. This value cannot be null.
Exceptions
java.lang.NullPointerException thrown when a null focus listener is used.

setOnAudioFocusChangeListener

Added in API level 26
fun setOnAudioFocusChangeListener(
    listener: AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener, 
    handler: Handler
): AudioFocusRequest.Builder

Sets the listener called when audio focus changes after being requested with AudioManager#requestAudioFocus(AudioFocusRequest), and until being abandoned with AudioManager#abandonAudioFocusRequest(AudioFocusRequest). Note that only focus changes (gains and losses) affecting the focus owner are reported, not gains and losses of other focus requesters in the system.

Parameters
listener AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener: the listener receiving the focus change notifications. This value cannot be null.
handler Handler: the Handler for the thread on which to execute the notifications. This value cannot be null.
Return
AudioFocusRequest.Builder this Builder instance. This value cannot be null.
Exceptions
java.lang.NullPointerException thrown when a null focus listener or handler is used.

setWillPauseWhenDucked

Added in API level 26
fun setWillPauseWhenDucked(pauseOnDuck: Boolean): AudioFocusRequest.Builder

Declare the intended behavior of the application with regards to audio ducking. See more details in the AudioFocusRequest class documentation.

Parameters
pauseOnDuck Boolean: use true if the application intends to pause audio playback when losing focus with AudioManager#AUDIOFOCUS_LOSS_TRANSIENT_CAN_DUCK. If true, note that you must also set a focus listener to receive such an event, with setOnAudioFocusChangeListener(android.media.AudioManager.OnAudioFocusChangeListener,android.os.Handler).
Return
AudioFocusRequest.Builder this Builder instance. This value cannot be null.
