RRec [Audio Capture] Extension Plugin

EL CAMINO · 08-30-2009, 11:51 PM

as the name says, this plugin was created as a simple wave in recorder, is very simple but handy, can record from almost any wave in. like Mic, line in etc. and saves as mp3, also picks up silabs/ads radio receivers. i been testing it and seems to be stable enough, so here it is for any one who needs something like this little guy. i included some skin files for testing, "radio_player", i use Silabs, so is based in this function. for more details in how to use it please read Skin Commands.txt. enjoy.

NOTE:

2 options available.

an installer(thanks mitch), all is copied, and registered.

and binary,the easy way.

COOL! I can finally stop holding my phone's voice recorder up to the speakers when a song I like is on the radio and I don't know who the artist is.

that's the main reason for creating this, record radio. and with some simple tricks you can name the files using RDSTEXT.

I am trying this plugin out but when I click a button to start recording; nothing happens. I am trying to record linein (xm radio is on this line).

I used the installer, added a button with "RRec_From;LineIn" but I don't see a window come up or see anything in the default directory specified. What I am missing?

Thanks for your help

if you didnt see an error screen that means you did record something, the default directory is something like this..

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\RideRunner\Plugins\RRec

you can change/View this setting, using "RRec_Dir" variable, all this is explained in Skin Commands.txt. A good way to know whats going on, is using the labels, like "RRec_Time"
or "RRec_Status", if you don't want to create a screen yet, use SkinTool to debug.

but if you still have issues let me know.

I looked in that directory and did not see anything. Also, I used the variable (RRec_Time) to see what was going on but the time did not start. So, I will try the skintool (i never used it before). It is suppose to use windows sound recorder or something?

Thanks for your help.

Response: I tried the skin and same thing. See my comments below

this work great in my skin ,

First of all, thanks for helping on this.

To answer your questions (see above)

I got it working but only with RRec_From;Mic. So, it works but when I tried RRec_From;LineIn or RRec_From;Aux, the popup window came up and stated "Error -Can't open device LineIn....Aux". The Mic option worked fine and I saw the saved file in the directory.

So, in windows, I have these options for Recording ---Recording, LineIn, Mic and StereoMix. I have only a mute option and not select. Yes, it is unmuted and the volume is up. What else should I look for or set here?

Edit: I have my XM (tuner) and HD (tuner) both connected through LineIn connection on the motherboard. I am not using the line-in plugin option in RRconfig. I hope this helps some.

Thanks

mmm strange , i have HD tuner here so i also use linin , and i can record from the HD tuner, so its not what i thought it was going to be ,

arh hang on your cmd is wrong

RREC_FROM:LINEIN (your cmd )

Right cmd is

RREC_FROM;LINEIN

Notice the ; in the cmd

Hope this is it and works for you

Sorry, I put that wrong in the message. I had RRec_From;LineIn and ;Aux.
