[Workaround] Repeated audio / Endless echo

[octoghost]

I discovered a workaround that works on my device: add RootlessJamesDSP itself to the "Excluded Apps" list.

As I understand it, some Android custom ROMs include patches to make sure that apps can't block their sound from being captured. This way RootlessJamesDSP unrestrictedly captures itself in an infinite loop.

I couldn't find any explanation for this problem online, so I'm hoping this can be helpful to someone experiencing the same problem.

Thanks for your hard work in developing this wonderful app.

Interesting, I'll try this later.

Yep, seems to fix the issue

This should be the default, please.

This app normally plays the processed audio using the ALLOW_CAPTURE_BY_NONE audio policy flag, which should prevent apps, including itself, from recording it.
But since some ROMs seem to disregard this flag, I have set this as the default now with commit 9169874.

I haven't published a new stable release yet, but precompiled APKs with the fix can be downloaded from GitHub actions: https://github.com/ThePBone/RootlessJamesDSP/actions/runs/6316049527
