There's an application targeted at recording audio continuously in chunks of 1 hour length called 'rotter': http://www.aelius.com/njh/rotter/ I didn't use this application for quite some time, so I don't know whether this program still does what you are looking for. But at the time I used the program it just worked: lightweight and solid. rotter requires that you run the jack audio server (you would let jack run all the time). For sure there are other (better?) options that I don't know of, but your goal (continuously in 1 hour chunks) seems to be exactly what rotter was built for... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing AppDynamics Lite, a free troubleshooting tool for Java/.NET Get 100% visibility into your production application - at no cost.
