Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2002 23:12:14 +0330 Hi, Archos FM Recorder buffers around 30 sec of Radio, so that user won't miss anything. I hope you could write a code for buffering data. I mean you have 30 sec from behind, buffered; you press start and it will record from 30 sec before (or any other intervals. I prefer 2~10 sec). Could you also use it while recording from Line In/SPDIF? Archos has mic peaks while recording (as I saw in manual, since I have no jukebox yet!). Your code could have a starting peak (defined by user, adjustable while recording), when sound's over (higher) the peak, it will start recording from 1-2 sec (it would be best if it's adjustable, too) behind (buffered in memory). When the sound's off the peak, it will pause recording after 2-3 seconds (or more, cause you should let the preacher breath!), so there's a 4-5 sec silence between starting/ending and then start buffering again. It's very nice if all intervals are adjustable by user, also could be set to 'off' while recording from Line In/SPDIF. You're really doing your best, thanks! ----- Original Message ----- From: Martin Borus <martin_at_borus.de> To: <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2002 5:24 PM Subject: Recording - only while signal is present == Timer > Hi, > > I'm still thinking of ways to get timer recordings on the way fast. > > On my video cassette recorder I have an "external timer" option. > If I activate this instead of following it's own timer it just waits until > it receives a signal from an external source (mostly a satellite receiver) > starts a recording when a signal appears and stops it when it goes. > > Does this sound like something for Rockbox? > > For digital recordings this means changing the behaviour that a recording > is paused when there is no signal present.
