[Touch-packages] [Bug 1923841] Re: [SRU] Increase recording quality
The arecord defaults to use 8 bits for recording. Enable -proposed and update, arecord now defaults to 16 bits and the audio being recorded becomes much clearer. ** Tags removed: verification-needed-focal ** Tags added: verification-done-focal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to alsa-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1923841 Title: [SRU] Increase recording quality Status in HWE Next: New Status in alsa-utils package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in alsa-utils source package in Focal: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] Audio gets recorded by "arecord" has really bad sound quality when the volume is low.
