raw audio recording of the PineBuds Pro

Hi, I am wondering if is it possible to access the raw audio recording of the PineBuds Pro?

Thanks,

Moved to Discussion. This is not a bug report.

What do you envision by 'raw'? I imagine you mean something like .WAV, but there's always going to be a codec involved of sorts. What is your use-case?

The audio cannot be stored on the bud itself, so you can only access the audio sent over the bluetooth. The codec used for this will depend on what the device paired supports as well. So you would need to change which microphone's data is send back over the bluetooth connection and then record on another device. You will only be able to get one microphone at a time this way afaik.

Sampling rate will depend on what audio sampling rate is being used at the time for sending audio to the buds (if any).

Thanks for the reply! May I ask the maximum sampling rate PineBuds Pro supports?

I'm not sure myself. It does depend on the context. Best way to find out is to delve into the code...

Can you shed some light on how to update the earbud's firmware? Is that possible by plugging in the charging case to my laptop (with earbud inside) to upgrade the earbud?

Thanks!
