Becky Gibson commented on CB-571:
---------------------------------
I'm looking at how to fix this but it is going to be difficult to unify with
Android so I could use some help.
For recording via the media object you could pass in documents://filename to
store a recording in the application documents directory. Andrew suggested
requiring a full path name (or documents://) for the file name of the
recording. However, one of the biggest complaints in this ticket is the
difference between iOS and Android. Currently iOS requires that the file exist
(which is what I am changing) and Android does not. Android accepts just a
filename and then stores it in: new File("/data/data/" +
handler.cordova.getActivity().getPackageName() + "/cache/" + file). Thus, the
reason CB-571 has been open so long - how to unify these apis with the least
changes. Suggestions welcome!
> Check that audio file recording to using Media.startRecord is of type .wav

> As we document in {{startRecord}} on our [docs
> page|http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.6.1/cordova_media_media.md.html#media.startRecord],
> when recording audio in iOS, you need to make sure the file exists and that
> it is of type .wav.
> It would be nice if the {{startRecordingAudio}} method in CDVSound.m checked
> that the requested file to record to is of the right type, and throw an error
> if it is not.
