WAV Sound.

[artblanc]

I have problems reproducing wav format on a 7650.

It seems that the WAV file is played, but not very loud (i have to put my ear very close to the phone).

The sound is well recorded. (quiet loud)

Do I have to set something to make it louder?

The code i'm using to play it is:

Sound ss;
byte[] data;
int n = 0;

InputStream is = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/sound/snd01.wav");

try{
// this is beacuse i use 2 bytes before the wav
// that tell me the lenth in bytes of the sound
n = is.read();
n = n | is.read() << 8;
data = new byte[n];
is.read(data, 0, n);
} catch(IOException e){}

ss = new Sound(data, Sound.FORMAT_WAV);
ss.setGain(255);
ss.play(1);

I too have had this problem and there seems to be no pattern to it. 99% of my sounds play okay but every now and then I get one that just will not play (or as you say - you have to hold it right beside your ear to play it).

The same sound and the same code will play on the 3650 but not on the 7650 (or N-Gage!).

It's driving me nuts!

well, i have discovered somethig.
It seems that the nokia 7650 makes some kind of fade out with the sound. Or at least it seems this.
What i mean, is that i fixed the problem just adding 0.5 seconds of sound (empty) to my original sound.

The problem was that the sound was so short that the possible fade out was all the sound.

It seems it only happens on short sounds.

Try it.

Thanks - that's explains a lot!

Thank you for this valuable note!

Can one disable this fade mechanism?
My app plays sequences of one-second
sounds.
