Hi,
I was just asking if it were alternative for you. Obviously it is not. I
must admit that it is a simple tool, a KDE3 legacy.
When I try to save the file, or export it to wav
format, I get empty files
of a few kilobytes.
In order to "save as" the file you have to load it first. So the process is
record, save, load, save as.
It is not very intuitive.
I cannot show you some of this, because ksnapshot
disappears when I do
anything with an active window, but here is a screenshot of my krec, which
tells me that it is currently recording. See attachment.
Never mind, try harder experimenting with it and you'll find out how it
works.
Again I was just suggesting a very basic and simple tool to do some audio
recording.
You could actually use also the command line tool arecord.
$ arecord -l
$ arecord -L
$ arecord -fcd /tmp/test.wav
If you have more than 1 mic attached, you will have to apply -D option to
select the correct one or otherwise it takes the default. Default is the
one that is configured as default in pulseaudio.
