The Android multimedia framework includes support for capturing and playing audio, video and
images in a variety of common media types, so that you can easily integrate them into your
applications. You can play audio or video from media files stored in your application's resources,
from standalone files in the file system, or from a data stream arriving over a
network connection, all using the MediaPlayer
or JetPlayer
APIs. You can also record audio, video and take pictures using the MediaRecorder
and Camera
APIs if supported by the device
hardware.
