Re: Why does this ALSA config no longer work in Fedora 12

Around about 05/03/10 09:34, n2xssvv.g02gfr12930 typed ...
The following ALSA config enabled the recording of played sound
It is no longer working, any ideas as to why?

None at all, but I'd put money on pulse-audio.

I found the following on the net a while ago (still using F10 then), and
successfully used it to record a bit of radio I was listening to through
firefox+flash -> pulse-audio. It's slightly tweaked from the one I found,
and I don't recall where I found it:

#!/bin/bash
# pa-record
OUT="$1"
if [ -z "$OUT" ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 output-file" >&2
exit 1
fi
rm -f "$OUT"
EXT=${OUT##*.}

# Get sink monitor:
MONITOR=$(pactl list | grep -A1 '^\*\*\* Source #' | grep '^Name:
.*\.monitor$' | cut -d" " -f2 | tail -n1)

# Record it raw, and convert to a wav or ogg
echo "Recording to $OUT ..."
echo "Close this window to stop"
if [ "$EXT" == "ogg" ]; then
parec --format=s16le -d "$MONITOR" | oggenc --raw --quiet --quality=4
-o "$OUT" -
else
parec -d "$MONITOR" | sox -t raw -r 44k -sLb 16 -c 2 - "$OUT"
fi
