Hi Folks,
I just installed a Creative Labs Sounsblaster Live! 5.1 digital, on a SuSe-7.2 system, and I'm driving it with ALSA.
No problem with playing .wav.files (using 'aplay'), nor with getting output on the speaker "Line Out" when playing audio CD or using input from microphone or speaker line from another source as input.
However, I also want to be able to _record_ input (from microphone or input line), generating a .wav file, and I have not been able to find out how to do this. All attempts seem to lead to a .wav file which stores many kilobytes of silence!
Any suggestions?
With thanks, Ted.
I'm not saying Ben's suggesrtion is wrong in any way (it was you who also replied wasn't it Ben?), but I've never turned off the Arts server to do any recording (through the microphone/webcam only). I've always just done it through the command line with 'record'. just do a 'man record', and you'll get all the info you need for any options you want to use, hopefully this'll work out for you and you won't have to turn anything off, and if not, I hope Bens suggestion does you right instead. <S> John - -- A butterfly is: Pretty,soft,harmless...and useless, just like M$N.
