USB microphone not working with AudioPublisher

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

I have a voice chat feature in my application, in which I use AudioPublisher and AudioSubscriber.

The code is almost identical to the Audio.mxml example coming with the SDK.

I have a 'start voice chat' button that starts voice chat.

The problem I'm having is that a Macbook's built-in microphone works fine,

while an external USB microphone doesn't.

I selected the correct Microphone from the drop-down menu in the 'Adobe Flash Player Settings',

and the record volume bar also properly shows a non-mute green bar.

The headset I'm using is MX500i from Plantronics.

I don't think there's any problem with my code considering that it works perfectly with Macbook's microphone.

It'd be great if anyone has a solution to the problem I have.

Thanks,

Juho

Hi,

I have tested a similar scenario, and a USB mic did work for me on Mac. Are you trying to change your mic at run time ?

Can you provide more details, as to the LCCS SDK Version, Flash player version, Mac OS version, anf if possible the console logs and your code.

Thanks

I had the same problem. You need to check the device index of your USB mic.

In my case. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.6 system. I had four devices cataloged. With the last one being the USB mic.

Then set like so in your AS code audioPub.microphoneManager.micIndex = 3;

Remember, that the indexing is 0 based.

The sound framework make the assumption that the index is 0.

Hope that helps.
