SpeedAlert: a tool with an overlay that alerts you when overspeeding.

First, excellent work. This app is great and I appreciate your hard work. Even in more rural areas in the US I can get the current speed limit now with the addition of the databases.

Would it be possible to let us change the beep sound? Like, upload our own audio files. That would be a nice addition. Not really an issue our anything, just a thought I had recently, I understand if this is easier said than done.

It is not that difficult, but it is time consuming. I assume you need two selection options in this case: one for overspeeding and one for the speed camera.
I will think about it. Currently I use a "tonegenerator" in kotlin code: extremely simple and small.

I just built another setting in the Settings -> Audio Section:

I do not know what FYT/DuDu is doing to the audio channels, but this should give you the option to select any channel you want.

I need to test this as it is completely untested now.

@surfer63 I had a proper drive using v2.2 today and it worked perfectly.

I've got the speed limit sign size exactly how I want it, so it looks perfect too.

Fantastic work 👏

Modifying the main server does not fix the problem with the pipipi alert sound from the Speed Alert application, it only causes the radio sound not to turn off, because previously the radio sound would turn off when exceeding the speed limi

The answer is indeed "might".
As said: I simply wrote the code Yesterday evening. I have not tested yet. As far as I know, FYT/DuDu suppresses all "alarm" sounds. I tested that earlier. This means that that option should probably be removed (but I have to test).
I guess the "ring"(tone) channel is the most safe one, as you always hear the phone. But it could also be that FYT/DuDu also "kidnapped" that channel for their own BT use.

You'll see when you do the test, maybe it will be fine.

No, that is not correct. You have an issue and so have @robisto and @Gsibaja. For me it has always worked (and for many other users). That is why it is so terribly difficult to troubleshoot this: it works for most users and not for some others.
I certainly don't want to downplay your problem, but I don't understand why it is not working.
I will now simply test if the options work. If the options work, I will release it and hope that one of the options will work for you as well.

After installing mainserver modification, there's still no warning when FM radio is playing. When I play music with Player Pro, the warnings work.

That's the problem with FYT, and now also with DuDu. They modified the audio channels and disabled the standard Android working. You say it yourself: It works with "normal" Android programs. those are programmed according "the rules of Android". FYT and DuDu break those rules.

I am still afraid that with whatever option you chose, FYT/DuDu will overrule everything by "stealing" audio focus when the radio plays.

robisto I have the same problem. I even reinstalled the system and nothing helped. Surfer63 is trying to fix it, we'll have to wait and see if it works.

surfer63 We trust your professionalism and your ability to solve the problem. Thank you for the work you've put in so far. The latest update to 2.2 is SUPER.
