PulseAudio, xvidcap, mozilla and mHwaveedit
Posted: Sun 15 Mar 2020, 21:53
Hi
We have now one powerful Puppy with pulseAudio (Dpup_buster-64 from josejp2424) built in (as wel l as in 32 bit: also the version with no PAE kernel really includes PulseAudio! All versions are about the same. I did find until now only one difference: 32 bit versions include Gimp, the 64 bit one includes mTpaint).
We have probably somewhere a 64bit-compatible version of xvidcap made in the older time by fredx181 (but not available any more under the old attachment to the forum message. Probably/I hope, it did be move to some Puppy archive?). Xvidcap has the benefit to be extremely simple to limit the field of recording on the screen to avoid extremly large recording of the video data (but perhaps there is no need? Would be better as the quality of recording would of course be reduced...) and don't to require for these reason lot of memory!)
We have in each Puppy a robust but operable recorder mHwaveedit for sound (alone) and can easily add divers recording systems for videos and sound (Dpup_Buster has apt-get and can install all video recorders available in Debian Buster!)
And this week, divers of the most famous scene of opera and orchestra of the world will offer to us because of closed houses (coronavirus precautions) really top concerts with most modern and superb staging and execution for a short limited time (for ex. 20 h beginning tomorrow), also it is
very urgent!
I suppose it is legal to make a private recording of them for the restrictive use at our own home only to see it not tomorrow but one or more days later...
But I am sorry to admit:
I was never able until now to make some hifi recording from browser through PulseAudio!
The first difficulty is to create a separate PulseAudio channel for the recording application (for ex. mHwaveedit or other like kdenlive etc.)
and then the second difficulty is to connect both if possible before the spectacle starts!
to record directly on the hard disk (better as in the Puppy memory as such a recording can become a really big file!)
probably would a script be most secure as to try to do it without experience using pavucontrol etc.
is one of the Puppy user able to give us adequate recommendations to do it immediately correctly?
