Unable to play m.youtube.com video in BlackBerry simulator - blackberry

When I try to play video from m.youtube.com I get an error:
an error has occured attempting to play media.
How do I solve this?

Make sure you are running the MDS Simulator (start it before the simulator), otherwise most applications that use networking on the simulator (including the web browser) will not work.
EDIT: as noted below, YouTube mobile uses RTSP which isn't supported in the simulators

Try playing around with different versions of the OS in your emulator. Be aware, however, that Blackberry support for Flash video is virtually nonexistent even on their handsets, so you're bound to run into issues.

Flutter just_audio seek issue when target is "Designed for iPad"

I am trying to enable "Designed for iPad" as a target for my functioning Flutter based iOS app. My understanding is that the app runs the iPad version in a VM when the user is on an M1 (or Apple Silicon) mac.
The app uses just_audio, all features work fine and I can load a file and play (I am using a StreamAudioSource derived from an encrypted file downloaded on disk). When I try to seek in the file I get this error from the iOS side and the audio does not seek but continues playing from where it was (I see a buffering and ready state).
AQMEIO_HAL.cpp:736 kAudioDevicePropertyMute returned err 2003332927
There is very little info on this error apart from this pretty old Apple developer post
https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/672311
If I play a file as a stream (encrypted HLS) then seek works exactly as expected.
Has anyone had any experience with just_audio targeted this way?
Thanks!

How to play react-native-webview audio while the iPhone is muted?

I'm currently running an Expo project with react-native-webview 9.4.0 installed, and I'm trying to use the WebView to play audio from a local .html file with a custom JS script using the Web Audio API. The audio works fine on the iOS simulator and on an iPhone when not on Silent Mode, but once I turn on Silent Mode it's impossible to get any audio to play.
There seems to have been a couple attempts to fix this issue over the past couple months (https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-webview/pull/1218) and (https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-webview/issues/1140), but even with the most recent version of react-native-webview I still can't get the Web Audio to play with the iPhone muted. I've tried various workarounds from StackOverflow without any success either. Does anyone else have this issue or have a workaround to suggest?

Adobe AIR dynamic sound and recording delay issue

I'm writing mobile application with Adobe AIR. The application use AIR Microphone API to record sound to file and later replay it.
The problem manifest only on mobile devices, not simulator. Specifically only on iOS devices, android devices seem to work OK.
Sometimes the recorded sound is missing samples. I know this because I use iFunBox to copy the recorded file to another application that replay it. The dropped frame manifest during playback as very fast audio because only part of the samples were recorded.
Sometime the playback is to slow which manifest as very slow audio. I know this because when the recording is fine and the other application play the sound right or when I take a file I recorded in the simulator (which run on my MacBook) and it only play slow on the mobile device.
How can I make sure the sound is good even when the application is a bit busy?
I've built the application as ad-hoc package and install it on iPad using TestFlight and now everything seem to work just fine.
I guess during debug Adobe AIR did not manage to fill the sound buffer fast enough and cause the distortion.

getEnhancedMicrophone() doesn't work (reduce echo) on air mobile for IOS

I have a problem with my flex mobile application on iOS. It is a video chat application with a red5 server.
The video works fine but the voice has a big echo! I tried using getEnhancedMicrophone() but it didn't help.
How can I have Acoustic Echo cancellation or suppression on IOS?
I work on Flash Builder 4.6 with Air 3.5
There no known solutions.
Adobe been promising a fix for years but the solution requires access to Android source code from Google that is not open source. I had the same issues with a videChat app on Android using Adobe Air. I tried as workaround:
Switching mic.setLoopback(false/true) in a timer to break up the audio
Trying to detect sound coming over NetStream and set the local device mic gain to 0
Problem is I cannot detect if someone is talking over NetStream.
Use NetStreamInfo audio properties like audioBytesPerSecond but these do not jump when someone is talking over NetStream.
The problem is solved if the user wears headphones on the mobile side but this is not acceptable.

Turn iOS Device into AirPlay Speaker

I'm fiddling with an app, and I'm also aware that apps made by developers that allow an iOS Device to receive an audio stream from another iOS Device or iTunes. So I'd like to implement it and possibly find a method within Apple's guidelines, allowing audio to be streamed. I've tried looking for everything, but I can't find where to start. Any ideas, a place to start, maybe even a point of direction would be great.
chekout the airspeaker project on github.
https://github.com/chenkaigithub/AirSpeaker
I was able to run it on iOS simulator 6.0 and then use my iphone to stream audio.
However if I try to stream from iTunes 11 it does not work ( iTunes lists the device in airplay list but , on selection , prompts with error "airplay device is not compatible with this version of iTunes." )
