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.
