Re: [RDD] Importing audio on new drive

[ermina]

Hi,

not sure how RD4 works yet, but if your installation is on a single 
computer, you can just edit /etc/fstab to bind the path where you 
actually store your files to /var/snd; ie add a line that says:


/media/rd/F00E70710E703328/var/snd/ /var/sndnone bind 0 0

Hope this helps.

However I needed to move /var/snd to a bigger second drive. I deleted 
the /var/snd and created one on the second drive. I give it permissions 
per normal. However rdimport now errors with "unable to create the 
destination file".


The path I'm using on the new drive is 
this /media/rd/F00E70710E703328/var/snd/


What  am I missing in order to get rivendell to see the new /var/snd 
location?

I’ve never tested with an ASI5810, but in looking at the mixer layout 
[https://www.audioscience.com/internet/products/sound_cards/asi581x.htm 
], that 
card has a decidedly ‘unusual’ layout on the capture side. There are two 
physical inputs (one analog and one AES3), but the accompanying text says 'Two 
stereo streams of PCM record fed from 1 stereo input’; whereas the card that 
the ASI5810 superseded (the ASI5111), that likewise had two physical inputs, 
had each one hard-wired to its respective stream converter.

How many inputs does RDAdmin report? Have you tried with all available inputs?

Cheers!

[RDD] Odd issue with rdcatch

[Rob Landry]

I recently installed an ASI5810 sound card in a Rivendell machine at WUMB 
(Boston, MA). We are using the AES3 input and output of this card.


rdcatch appears to record only sometimes from the AES3 input.

In particular, if normalization is selected, we get a recording with 
audio, but if no normalization is selected, we get silence. The problem 
does not occur if we record from the analog input.


WUMB runs an older version of Rivendell (2.19.3), so if this problem has 
been fixed in newer versions, I'll make the case to management that we 
need to upgrade.


In the meantime, I think we'll be recording ffrom the analog input.
