[android-developers] Re: Determining audio decoders available

Hi Mark,
1,This is only sample code demonstrate how to do it. As I have
notified, it even *may not pass compile*.
2,Do you think any OEM who support some kind of codec, But distribute
a device without a built-in corresponding media player ?? One thing
more, My sample code could also detect if any 3rd apps installed on
the device has implements the codec.
