My homework on this says FMS (or some hack in the RTSMP space) is the only way. There's a neat project out there than can make movies from webcams but it does it by pulling individual bitmaps and stitching together the movie. There's no corresponding "frames" in the audio to capture.

Clark--we looked at this briefly as well. We wanted to record short segments of audio for immediate playback (in a language training application). We ended up having to use Flash Media Server.

I didn't investigate the AIR variation as it had to work in an online environment. You might be able to use a byte array that gets read from disk, but I am not too confident.

Here's what I'm trying to do. I want to record high-quality audio for an
e-Learning course. But, I've got presenters in two different cities.

So, I plan to use what broadcasters call double-ender recording. Each of my
presenters will have a good microphone, and I want to record their audio
locally. Then, I'll FTP or mail the audio files back to me and sync them up. My presenters are VERY technically unsophisticated, so I want to make this
as foolproof as possible.

So, I thought ... Why not create an AIR app that would record the audio
locally. The app could also send me status updates so that I would know the
recording was still working OK. When complete, the AIR app could FTP the
file to me. My presenters would have trouble spelling "FTP" much less using
an FTP client.

But, here's the thing. Can AIR record local audio? I know you can capture and send it on to Flash Media Server. But, that would reintroduce bandwidth
problems and I'd loose the high-quality I am after. I've looked at the
flash.media.Microphone class, but so far have not seen how to do this.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
