Hi, Another (often overlooked) option is to just write a short script and schedule it via CRON. Use command line tools to do the recording. As an example a simple: arecord -f cd -d 10 - | oggenc - -r -o filename.ogg will capture 10 seconds of audio from the default sound input and encode it

Hi, Check within alsamixer that you have the correct input selected and the levels on that input are set, and that it is not set to mute. Also check your jack setup. Sometimes it helps to start up one of the Jack level indicators (something like meterbridge works well) and route your audio input

No one's mentioned it yet, so I may as well break the silence... Would there be anything wrong or improper in using RD Catch on a dedicated logging/archiving machine instead? It's already been built for you (on the appliance disk), works right out'a the box, and is designed to handle multiple

I know some of you use rotter to log your ouput so I was wondering if anyone knows if I have an audio card with multiple (stereo) inputs can I record the ouput of two stations simultaneously? Also does it support recording to a mono file to save drivespace? I can't seem to find much info on

If you need 2 mono stations, why don't you simply record it to a single stereo stream? One station per channel. I never tried, but I think you can run multiple instances of rotter in the same jack server. Atenciosamente, ** ** *Fernando Della Torre* Tecnologia da Informação (: +55
