Hello Kenneth, I asked this question as well to this list a couple of months ago and was advised to use paudio - here is a quick description. It will allow you to save the sound to a wave file and then you can use your favourite encoder to convert it to a mp3 file. Title: paudio Version: 0.1 Entered-date: 13JAN98 Description: paudio, or /proc/audio, is a file that when read from, will return the data that is currently being written to the audio device (/dev/audio or /dev/dsp). This is useful if an audio application doesn't allow you to save an audio file. Note that to use this effectively, a moderate knowledge of Linux modules is needed, as well as a moderate knowledge of digital audio techniques. Feel free to email me with questions (although I gaurentee no answers!). -- Cyrus Patel - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dept. of Computer Engineering Debian GNU/Linux University of New South Wales (Woody) Sydney, Australia.
