How to access the top ear speaker

[skeels]

Has anyone seen a 3rd party native app access the top speaker (not the player speaker at the bottom of the phone).

Better yet - anyone know how to (code wise?).

THANKS!

To get sound out of the receiver, try this:

-(void) switchToReceiver
{
NSString* zError;
AVController* zAVController=[AVController avController];

[zAVController activate: nil];
[zAVController setAttribute:@"PhoneCall" forKey:@"AVController_AudioCategoryAttribute" error:&zError ];
}

JLA - Thanks a ton! Worked great.

i don't get... where did you put the code in?

[JLA]

Anywhere you want...it can be a class method, so I guess you can change that - to a +.
Calling it will switch to the audio to the receiver until something switches it back.

When I add the code to my method I get:

error: 'AVController' undeclared (first use in this function)
error: 'zAVController' undeclared (first use in this function)


Do I need an additional framework for this? A have AVFoundation imported and I am successfully playing sounds using AVAudioPlayer. I just want to play the sound through the ear speaker.

Thanks!
