Package: arts
Version: 1.3.1-1
Severity: important
When using krec there is no way to record input from microphone
(connections are OK between micro and soundcard). The problem is
with arts:
1) Kec: Tools menu --> sound manager says that KRec::In, Record,
in_soundcard. No way: record levels doesn't move, it doesn't register
voice or anything. Now, the reason why I think is arts's problem.
2) Krecord doesn't use arts. It tries to access directly to
/dev/dsp. And in fact, *it really gets access to /dev/dsp* (mmmh, it
should be locked by arts, shouldn't it?). With krecord *I do record
voice from microphone input*, but I can't play it within the program
because /dev/dsp is locked by arts (curious, write in /dev/dsp is
locked by arts, but read from /dev/dsp is not, why?) I play the voice
recorded with xmms through arts.
3) And now, which I think is the main fact: then I tried to exec:
"artsdsp krecord", therefore forcing krecord to use soundcard through
arts. Result: there is no way to record voice from micro input with
krecord. In short: "krecord" lets recording sound from micro, "artsdsp
krecord" don't.
Many thanks for paying attention. Your time and efforts are greatly
appreciated.
