Presto Sound Library Open Beta Description

Background service to add support for variable speed or pitch for playback of MP3 and Ogg Vorbis files. AAC is not supported due to existing patents.If you sent me an e-mail from Google Checkout, e-mail responses are bouncing as undeliverable. Please e-mail me directly at aocate@gmail.comI have been informed that the following apps have added support for Presto:
- BeyondPod
- DoggCatcher
- PodTrapper
- Pocket CastsThe Presto developer is a different developer from those applications. Those developers are not responsible for Presto's implementation, bugs, or cost.Presto is still in beta. Bugs are listed at the end of this description. Please e-mail me if you find new bugs. I apologize for the lack of updates; I bit off way more than I can chew this semester. Work is ongoing, but I can only spare a few hours at a time on some Mondays. Please be patient.Apps using Presto must be restarted after upgrading Presto.Download problems are a problem with the Android Market, not with Presto. See these pages for potential solutions:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1996#makechangesFor developers: See the home page for nearly drop-in code that replaces android.media.MediaPlayer, using Presto when available, or gracefully degrading to use the default Android MediaPlayer when not.Known bugs (please e-mail me if you find any new ones or any of these impact you too severely; I have no means to respond to Market comments). Asterisks (*) indicate bugs that have not been observed in a while; please e-mail me if you encounter them so I can confirm they are not fixed.#18 - ANR In BeyondPod
#36* - Self-Combined Files With Chapters Don't Work
#45 - Potential Infinite Recursion When Erroring
#48 - Only Signed 16 MP3s Work
#49 - Blogtalk radio media files duration calculated as twice as long as it actually is
#51 - PodTrapper Only Reaches 99% Progress
#62 - Very Large (> 100 MB) Files May Not Play at Variant Speeds
#71 - Crash When Bluetooth Connected/Disconnected
#73 - UnsatisfiedLinkError causes force closeRemember that sending an e-mail is a lot more likely to get a problem fixed than anything else (such as posting a comment).Internet access is necessary to play files from the Internet; before ICS, this was inherited from the calling app, but ICS changed this.

UnusableI've been using this in combination with pocket casts in my car over bluetooth and initially it worked fine. Then I received a phone call, after the call was finished, presto continued to play the podcast and I couldn't stop it. I killed pocket casts but no joy. I ended up having to turn the phone off and on again. This happened a couple of times before I uninstalled Presto. I'm running stock ICS on a Galaxy Nexus. This is Google's flagship phone, so while this is a beta app, it should have been tested on this device. I've contacted the developer but had no reply. I'm all for beta software too, but not at this price. Waste of money.

Good, needs some improvementThe commenter before me mentioned the audio look that happens during a phone call. I don't agree with his conclusion though. The fix by the way is to force-close this app, not Pocket Casts because this is what's processing the audio. Anyways, I think the developer needs to add in something to look at the phone state in order to hand over the audio gracefully. I am not however an experienced developer nor have I seen his code so I may be way off. This app has saved me hours of listening; I love it!

Great, adds much needs functionalityWas waiting until I upgraded my phone to install this app. I had tried it on my old HTC Legend, but it crashed immediately, returned it and waited until I upgraded to an ICS phone, on my HTC One S it works great, not problems. It increased my podcast listening, works great with Doggcatcher. I've seen no decrease in battery life with use of this app.
