Package: gnomeradio Version: 1.8-2ubuntu1 Severity: important Tags: patch I can't record in gnomeradio either, just an empty sound-file is what I get. (see screenshot)
When start gnomeradio from terminal and try to record this error show up:
(gnomeradio:2084): gnomeradio-WARNING **: GStreamer runtime error: Could not
open audio device for recording.
TEST CASE:
1. Try to use gnomeradio built-in record function:
OUTPUT THIS ERROR:
(gnomeradio:22694): gnomeradio-WARNING **: GStreamer runtime error: Could not
open audio device for recording.
2. Try to record with gnomeradio started and gstreamer record commandline:
2.1 "osssrc" source
$ gst-launch-0.10 osssrc ! audioconvert ! wavenc ! filesink location=record.wav
OUTPUT THIS ERROR:
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause.
ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstOssSrc:osssrc0: Could not open
audio device for recording.
Additional debug info:
gstosssrc.c(380): gst_oss_src_open ():
/GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstOssSrc:osssrc0:
Unable to open device /dev/dsp for recording: No such file or directory
Setting pipeline to NULL ...
Freeing pipeline ...
2.2 "autoaudiosrc" source
$ gst-launch-0.10 autoaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! wavenc ! filesink
location=record.wav
OUTPUT THIS SUCCES:
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is live and does not need PREROLL ...
Setting pipeline to PLAYING ...
New clock: GstAudioSrcClock
Conclusion:
Solution is to use "autoaudiosrc" plugin which can decide for us what audio
source to use, whether it is a linux/unix solution (PA, OSS, Alsa) or other.
