Failure To Record Audio While Using WebkitSpeechRecognition On Android Chrome

In Chrome I'm recording audio while running speech recognition. The recording is using AudioRecorder which internally calls getUserMedia. The speech recognition is using webkitSpee

Solution 1:

A little more than a year ago doing WebKit speech recognition on android it was possible to do speech recognition and save the audio file from which the recognition was done. We used this to good advantage by sending the audio to other speech recognizers and combining results. I believe it was version 4.0 of android that took that capability away. I think that removal was intentional (for reasons I won't go into here). We still have not found a solution on Android.

FYI: The landscape of Google speech recognition is changing. An important recent change is that repeated speech recognition on a page requires a security certificate. Without it you have to "button click" on the screen to permit each recognition.
