Mirroring, Skype & Hangouts Issues - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hi, first of all excuse my bad english.
I manage to cast my Nexus7 to the tv, using both chromecast or Miracast (included in the TV), but the main problem is when it comes to Skype or Hangouts, the sound only comes from the Nexus itself, it's very annoying as the speakers aren't loud enough.
I'll be so glad if someone could help me with that.
Thanks in advance

Recording audio quality?

hi guys,
I was wondering if you guys who allready got the G3, could test the audio recirding quality,
what I mean is, G2 has a problem with noise cancelation microphone, and very often (allways) video recording sounds distorted, like underwater, cutouts, blanks, etc etc. '
is that problem still persistent with the G3, as the camera module is the same, so nto sure if they used the same microphones as well..?
please get back to me with this, I know that the majority of users wont notice this while playing recording on a cell phone, but when you play ot on a tv or laptop, the issues is very very big
seriously, no one has G3?
The audio recording in my opinion is great.

There is another thread on here somewhere with regards to this, sorry I don't have the link.
I haven't tested it yet myself, waiting for an opportunity to be in a loud club or something to give it a whirl.
Also search YouTube there may be some videos on there by now.

Sound issue during video recording

Dear XDA followers,
primarily I would to mention my full satisfaction of my device, the ASUS ZenFone ZE551ML (4GB of RAM).
Unfortunatelly, whenever I try to record a video into an environment with a low noise in background (i.e. TV powered on, someone who talks quietly or if I try to register some voice in the distance) I hear like an attenuate sound and it's impossible to recognize who are talking in it.
I'm using the last version of ASUS PixelMaster Camera.
I tried to use other apps but the problem persists.
I've looked in the web to find a solution but uselessly.
It could be a bad manage of the automatic gain control which doesn't work well.
If you have some suggestion for this annoying system, please contact me.
Thank You in advance for Your future answer.
Kind regards,
Angelo

Using video conference app direct on sony bravia

Hi.
I have been using this forum for years but this is the first time I started a thread so I hope it hasn't been answered before. I did a search but didn't see anything that matches my query.
I have a Sony bravia XF9005 running android 7 and I haven't updated android since I bought it.
I was trying to get a video conferencing app to work on the TV because I had been using screen mirroring from apps on my phone but the quality was hit and miss and it wasn't as convenient as doing it directly on the TV.
I have managed to get Skype Lite, Zoom and Jami onto the TV and used TV App Repo to create shortcuts for them in the launcher.
I have connected a logitech C270 webcam to the TV and got it to work for video. I got this working by switching the TV to pro mode and running Skype which then connected to the camera. When I switch back to normal TV mode Skype, Zoom and Jami all work fine with the camera but the audio mic built-in to the camera is not working.
I got around this problem by connecting a USB mic to another USB port on the TV and it works well when I can get the apps to connect to it. The mic I am using is a Blue Yeti.
In Skype lite if I make a video call to another Skype account everything seems fine until both devices are connected but then I have no audio from the Yeti. I have found a quick way around this is to make an audio call to the other device, the yeti is recognised and the audio works perfectly, then I just switch on the video and both work fine. It is the same for receiving a Skype call, if I answer with video the Yeti doesn't work but if I answer as audio only it works fine, then I can just switch the video on and it's all good again. I'm not too bothered about this as the workaround is easy enough.
In Zoom I have been able to get it to work well with both the camera and the mic but there are problems with it too. When I first installed the latest Zoom app and started a meeting it asks me for permission to use my video and my audio. When I give permission both work perfectly and I have had 4 devices in a meeting with no problems at all. As long as I don't close the app I can go from meeting to meeting with no problem but when I close the app and open it again I have no audio from the Yeti. I found a workaround on this as well but it is not as easy as the Skype one. Before I open Zoom I go to the app settings and permissions and disable the microphone permission for Zoom. Then when I create a meeting the app asks me for the mic permission and everything works perfectly again.
I have gone into the developer options and changed the Select USB Configuration to Audio Source. I have also allowed zoom to automatically switch on the sound in one of its settings but neither has made any difference. It seems like after the app is closed it doesn't recognise the mic on the next use.
Is there a way of automatically disabling a permission for an app after the app is closed or does anyone know of another workaround. I know that the apps aren't designed to work on the Android TV version of Android but bar these little problems they do work well.
I haven't really played around with Jami as much as the others so I haven't looked to see if I can get the audio working with it but the video works fine. I also tried the normal Skype app but it tends to turn itself into portrait mode when you are making calls or changing settings whereas the Skype Lite app runs perfectly in landscape all the time and it is much quicker too.
I was going to try Tellybean but I haven't got around to it yet plus most people already know Skype and now Zoom whereas I'm not sure how wide Tellybean is known.
Thanks for any help.
Hmm, a difficult situation. Have you solved this problem yet? A friend of mine works with conferences on https://brightvisionevents.co.uk/conferences / and he often gives me advice about my work because I often use conferences. I had a similar situation. Most likely, this is an incorrect operation of the microphone drivers. I think either reinstalling Windows or removing the microphone drivers and installing them from the official website of your Blue Yeti microphone can help you. I hope my advice helped you and you will solve your problem. Write if you have succeeded in everything, maybe it will help someone. Good luck!

Mirroring issue (sound) with Google home

Hi all,
I have a Nvidia shield TV with built in chromecast which works perfectly.
I could always cast directly with YouTube or whatever or use googles home app for mirroring video and audio when I wanted something that does not have build in cast option.
This has always worked with my opo1, opo3t, opo5 and my wife's Samsung s10.
Now with my rm5g I can cast when there is a cast option in the app flawlessly.
But the issue I have is when I try to cast/mirror with Google home.
Some how when I start mirroring everything works BUT sound keeps also coming from my mobile as well. If I lower volume or silence on mobile, it silences it on my shield as well.
The sound should be handled on my shield only and not on both devices, since now I need to have 100% volume on phone and duplicated sound on TV..... That's not what I want and it never needed this.
Normally you only have the mirrored video/chrome/etc in screen but no audio on your phone.
Is there a setting I'm missing on my red magic 5g? Or is this a flaw in the phone/software?
Does it work with you guys? For example mirroring a video on Chrome with Google home mirror function.
(ps, I have already looked in the home app, my shield TV and my phone but I can't find a solution to have the audio only on my shield. / I have not touched any settings when I changed my mobile from one plus 5 to red magic 5g / it still works perfectly on my opo5 and my wife's Samsung)
Nobody has this issue or have tried if it worked?
Just to add on the above info, reboot, factory reset was not helping.
I noticed the same issue with my Red Magic 5G, but unfortunately I don't know how to fix it. I think this is something only Nubia can fix.
Cast tru my 2 google nests and Hub are fine. Weird bug.

So your Google nest works fine, you don't have "double" audio then?
Kinda weird.
During the last days I've tried casting with my chromecast receiver on my other TV, a TV in my office and at a friend's place. Same result btw.
So it's not in the hardware of chromecast or Nvidia shield. It has to be in the red magic.
No double audio on my 3 devices. ??
I do have doubles displayed in the device cast menu but it doesnt affect anything.
I would like to bump this again to see if anyone else have this problem and a possible fix?
In the mean time my red magic had a software update, Google home updated a few times, my Nvidia shield had a software update.
I kinda hoped that 1 of these would fix it but I am still left with double audio. Right now my only solution is to cast what I want with audio on the phone and put my phone in the kitchen with the door closed so I won't be bothered by the double audio.
It's not really convenient....
Could anyone assist me?
Ps, tried a full reset on my 5g,no luck either.
