Well, does iChat do echo cancellation via public APIs or does it use private Apple APIs?

iChat works entirely with public APIs and their own echo cancellation code. No private APIs are used.


You speak as if we have access to the iChat code, so it's not a given at all that just because iChat can do something, so can we.

Why would you need access to the iChat code? Echo Cancellation is a major research area in signal processing. It is written about in numerous text books and papers every year. I'm sure you can dig up something useful with even a casual Google search.



If it's the case that iChat only uses public APIs, how about some of that code gets pasted into a new Sample Code project and put on ADC? That would seem to make the most sense since people like us repeatedly are looking for a cold, hard solution. And if you don't won't to do that, could you help us understand why not? If the reason is that it would be unsupported code, then we'd say back that we understand and acknowledge that and we assume the consequences of that.

Since we don't provide an Echo Cancellation library, obviously there won't be any sample code for that. But that aside, there is all sorts of sample code for all the APIs that iChat uses out of Core Audio.




Sorry, I should have been more clear that I was referring to iChat performing general system audio loopback (the issue in question), not audio processing it's doing on that audio. In other words, if iChat did do some sort of system loopback, then it would be certainly helpful to see the code that did that. But from what you said, since it only uses public APIs, then it can't do system loopback based on the facts that you listed earlier.
