Re: [Ltsp-discuss] /dev/dsp on clients

[William Man]

Yes, both "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp" and "cat /tmp/music.au > /dev/dsp" work (providing music.au is the right format) However, what I want is to do "cat /dev/dsp > /tmp/rec.au" to record from microphone to the file rec.au, I don't get any sound. William Derek Harding wrote: Hi William, Is it because /dev/dsp isn't putting out any sound to pipe to rec.au? "cat /dev/urandom > rec.au" wait a short time before ctl-C then "cat rec.au > /dev/dsp" works OK (as I would expect). Hi, I want to access the client /dev/dsp, in the lts.conf I have SOUND = Y for the client, but this meant that oss locks the device. So instead I set SOUND=N and editted rc.sound so oss doesn't start. This worked, "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp" made some modem sound, but when I do "cat /dev/dsp > /tmp/rec.au", then "cat /tmp/rec.au > /dev/dsp" but I don't get any sound. On looking at the file, it was empty. Does anyone have any idea why? Thanks William ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
