Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-media
Hello,
I now used gnome-sound-recorder to record a lesson, using the "Voice,
Lossy (Speex audio)" encoding. The resulting file size for about 1 hour
is about 20MB. It turns out that the file is encoded in stereo. I think
that 99.9% of people recording speech are not interested in stereo, and
most chances are that they use a mono microphone. I think that 10MB/hour
would be much nicer than 20MB/hour.
By the way, I think that 5MB/hour would be even nicer, if it sounds Ok.
If it is understandable but sounds significantly worse, I would add
another option - Why not have "voice, lossy, high quality" and "voice,
lossy, low quality"?
Thanks,
Noam
