Full duplex Bluetooth

[billythekid]

Using JUCE, I can only select bluetooth as an option from the MPVolumeView when the audio inputs are disabled. How do I get full duplex operation (I don't mind if the sample rate drops to 8kHz).

Fixed it. There is a small error in the juce iOS code. You need to set kAudioSessionProperty_OverrideCategoryEnableBluetoothInput after the kAudioSessionCategory_PlayAndRecord has been set, otherwise it will not register . .

        UInt32 audioCategory = kAudioSessionCategory_MediaPlayback;
        if (numInputChannels > 0 && audioInputIsAvailable)
    {
        audioCategory = kAudioSessionCategory_PlayAndRecord;
//            UInt32 allowBluetoothInput = 1;
//            AudioSessionSetProperty (kAudioSessionProperty_OverrideCategoryEnableBluetoothInput,
//                                     sizeof (allowBluetoothInput), &allowBluetoothInput);
        }
        AudioSessionSetProperty (kAudioSessionProperty_AudioCategory, sizeof (audioCategory), &audioCategory);
    
    if (numInputChannels > 0 && audioInputIsAvailable) 
    {            
        UInt32 allowBluetoothInput = 1;
        AudioSessionSetProperty (kAudioSessionProperty_OverrideCategoryEnableBluetoothInput,
                                 sizeof (allowBluetoothInput), &allowBluetoothInput);     
    }

Ah! Thanks so much for spotting that! I'll get it sorted out..

The problem with this is that the deviceManager will not fire a change message when bluetooth is selected, and so I cannot see a way of getting a notification about the sample rate change.

One option is to fire off an audioDeviceError on routing change to stop the audio device, but this blows a bit.

Any suggestions? I see a similar thread talking about external rate changes in this section of the forum.
