Abstract

Systems and methods for routing audio for audio-video recordings allow a user to record desired audio with captured video at the time the video is being captured. Audio from one or more sources may be routed to the video capture application and recorded with the video. In one or more examples, audio may be routed from another application, e.g., an audio playback application, running on the same device as the video capture application. In another example, audio may be received from a remote device through a wireless connection. Multiple streams of audio content may be mixed together prior to storing with video. The audio, upon reception, may then be routed to the video capture application for recordation. An audio progression bar may also be provided to indicate duration and elapsed time information associated with the audio being recorded.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a first application, audio from a second application, wherein the first application comprises a video recording application, and the second application comprises an audio playback application;

capturing, with the first application, video input;

determining, by the first application, audio content for storing with the video input, wherein determining audio content for storing with the video input includes;

determining whether first audio content is being played by the audio playback application, and upon determining that the first audio content is being played by the audio playback application, addition the first audio content as part of the audio content; and

storing, as a single audio-video-file, the video input with audio that is based on the audio content.
