New version 4.2

Improvements

1) The recording name will be in foreign language name
if there is a fresh install. Here's the Spanish recording.

2) Spanish put in NLS pet package (thanks to vicmz)

version 4.3

new feature - two new icons added to update the
time and date

This is a nice feature to avoid having to relaunch baconrecorder
just to obtain the current time and date Cool

version 4.4

-changed the interface slightly

I noticed that if you run a gettext version of
baconrecorder on an old version of Puppy
like Fluppy the Xdialog messages are often blank.

The solution is to go to an older version of
baconrecorder (before 4.0)

thank you. 3.1 on fluppy seems to work, for the my limited testing so far.

Pelo

Button "Pause" bouton No hay ?
No "pause Button" ?
Bacon recorder records, but a pause button would be helpfull. Perhaps i Did not see it.
Precord installed waiting some news.
I translate english spoken how-to to french. Speaking is much faster than writing. But sometimes i need some time to understand the english text, that is the reason why a "pause" button would be helpful, entiende usted ?

I think that putting a pause button in the window would be difficult.
I use the arecord command which does support pause however
it has to be done in the terminal. Crying or Very sad

Hey Don

You should be able to "pause" arecord using SIGSTOP and "unpause" it with SIGCONT signals.
Here's an example that works for me:

I never knew about SIGSTOP Embarassed

I'll use it if I can get it to work.

Hi Don,
this is an awesome app! thanks for it ! Very Happy

I've just moved to 4.4 coming from 3.1 ...
...and got a so-called 4.3 which is 4.4 as reported in its script.
just edited line 78 of /usr/sbin/baconrecorder like:

Hi again Don,

Btw, do you happen to have a workaround to control the record volume level ?
I once record some music and the replay sound was somewhat distorded ...i then struggled (using arecord) to try to reduce the capture level (using retrovol) ... but did not found major improvments ;
how do you do it ?

I remember an earlier recording app where there were two record level analogic indicators ... but this would lead to a less-simple-audio-recorder ... Confused

Thanks for any advice Smile

!

Charlie
