Integration touches several places in the engine:
1) SoundWave -- A check box enables Bink Audio as the codec of choice for that sound wave.
2) Decoder - Each supported platform's AudioMixer now returns BINK if the soundwave requests it. Additionally, the TargetPlatform returns BINK as an available codec, and returns it to the cooking code if the sound wave requests it.
3) Encode - TargetPlatform.Build.cs adds the encoder to the editor dependencies, and it gets picked up in the TPMM formats search.
#ROBOMERGE-SOURCE: CL 16682710 in //UE5/Main/...
#ROBOMERGE-BOT: STARSHIP (Main -> Release-Engine-Test) (v835-16672529)
[CL 16682731 by dan thompson in ue5-release-engine-test branch]
- Removed the function to return a single TP, and wrapped the functionality in a simple single required function (platform just has to add TPs to an array, high level code manages init and cleanup of the array)
- Stripped unncessary code from all TPs
- Collapsed the desktop targetplatform modules into 1 per platform
- Renamed LinuxAArch64NoEditorTargetPlatfortm to LinuxAArch64TargetPlatform to match the other non-editor platforms
- Deleted AllDesktopPlatform

Also rework logic for determining whether a project needs to be compiled, to more closely match equivalent code in UAT. ITargetPlatform::NeedsTempTarget() now allows querying whether a project needs a temporary target to be generated.

The values that it previously forced values to are now configured as follows:
* bBuildEditor is a read-only property that returns true if and only if the target type is Editor.
* bCompileSimplygon and bCompileSimplygonSSF now a property which will default to true for Windows editor, if Simplygon is available. It can also be explicitly enabled or disabled.
* bCompileSpeedTree is now a property which will default to true for editor targets, and can also be explicitly enabled or disabled.

UE-49301 Text in UMG controls flickers during update from Virtual Keyboard
#jira UE-49301
#ue4
#android
On some Android devices TextWatcher.onTextChanged gets called multiple times when typing/deleting the content of a EditText (internally, the first call resets the entire content, the second fills it with the new value)
The workaround is to delays sending "empty string" to the Slate, waiting for 100ms to see if there is a second call (the "real" string to update)
The CL contains a fix for a 5/5 crash : select some/all the text from the native edittext, press delete.

Change 3720654 by Sorin.Gradinaru
UE-48499 Android Voice Module has a few issues
#jira 48499
#Android
#ue4
1.Circular Buffer: Does the engine already have an implementation? Do we want this into core libraries?
R: There is an generic template class TCircularBuffer, but it lacks functionality like write/read checks, reading/writing data chunks.
Plus the code from VoiceModuleAndroid is optimized for circular byte array. I suggest to keep it.
2. Possible memory leaks: void free_circular_buffer (circular_buffer *p) is implemented, but not used. Presumably a memory leak on the variable inrb. Does CreateAudioRecorder need to be paired with any kind of destroy on shutdown?
R: Fixed. Using an array ActiveVoiceCaptures to store VoiceCapture references (same as on Windows)
3. Init() There are 4 calls to setup/init things that store the result in "result" but only the last call is checked against success. Should more checks against the values be made at each stage with informative log messaging in the event of failure?
R: Fixed.
4. GetVoiceData()
// Workaround for dealing with noise after stand-by
while(bytes<InVoiceBufferSize)
{
OutVoiceBuffer[bytes++]=0;
}
Isn't this just a memzero?
R: Fixed.
5. Missing features. Need to implement GetBufferSize and DumpState
R: Added GetBufferSize. Can be used like in TestVoice.cpp
DumpState is never used (same on Mac, iOS), plus the OpenSL objects do not expose internal properties.

UE-51262 values for pinch input produce very different results for same area on android device
#jira 51262
#iOS
#Android
#ue4
1. When the pinch goes beyond the viewport boundaries (when zooming out), the touch that goes off-screen is "released" and the zooming effect is over.
Solved by remembering last pinch event values
2. "Hack" the initial distance for the pinch/ rotate, by touching the screen and moving the finger to another position before using the second finger.
Solved by using the correct values when the pinch event starts
