Hi, I generally use the impressive krecord program to capture audio from my sound card. It works great, but as a GUI it is geared to user interaction. What I need to do is capture some audio at a set time (as a cron job, or at task) for a specified period. I can handle putting a script together to start and stop a task at specified times, but how can I capture the audio samples into a file?
I'm guessing something like 'cat /dev/dsp > filename' might work (or /dev/audio?), but is there more to it - e.g. sample rate? Or maybe somebody knows of a tool to do this. (I need to capture to file as I will be capturing around an hours worth) Sorry this is not strictly a Mandrake question, but it is LM8.1 I want to do this on :-) . Thanks, Nick.
