Title: Plugin Record 1.0
Post by: SnowHow on July 25, 2013, 06:18:45 AM
Finally got around to finishing this. It looks similar to the Aux Player plugin.  Enter the name you want to call the file in the settings dialog box. Save it and click the record button. It will record until you stop it. It also has a VU meter for audio levels and a display that counts up during recording to show time elapsed.

It uses lame.exe in the encoders folder to make a 128Kbps mp3 file. You will need to to create a folder called recordings under the Plugins folder. That's where the recorded files will be.

File is attached - Plugin_Record.zip

I've installed the files, created the folder called record and  set the file name to test also tried it with test.mp3,  clicked record let it record both times for about 10 minutes. When i click stop the recorded file is nowhere to be seen.  :bash:

I've just tried again after making a folder inside the encoder folder and nothing is being saved the folder is still blank.

Maybe a button to choose where to save the file to would be better?

Same problem here, Indeed the button is better, also like a option to give it a name for Shows and Voicetracks. (Like as: Show name - Date - Hour.mp3).
I know that this plugin are maked as basic, and gladly i see the features written at the top.

I think my last post was confusing, so I edited it. I was trying to show that the encoders folder and the recordings folder were on the same level, but it didn't come out right. "recordings" is a sub folder of "Plugins".....

I tried that and nothing was saving. I've tried several times and still cannot get the recording to save as  it should.

As i suggested earlier a button to allow the user to save the file to a location of their choice would be much better.

Salve.
I inserted the plug-in folder and subfolder you created in recordings. When I click the button shows the message: This pulgin has no main interface
What could be wrong?

Hello Francuccio,
the plugin_record.dll must be put into the Plugins folder, along with the other. then you have to create an empty folder with the name "recordings" and to be put into the Plugins folder. Inside this folder will be created automatically, the. Mp3 file of the recording.

Hello Snowhow,
the plugin record, is really useful.
There are a couple of things to review.

The time display, refers to every single song or played file and does not display the total time of the recording.

For every action of the play-rec button, you can create a new file. Mp3?
(eg. myfile_1, myfile_2 etc.).
or better yet, myfile + date (eg myfile_05-08-2013)

Choose the path where to save "myfile"

Thank you.
Mauro

Sorry for my late response - I've been arguing with a Domain Controller (and won!  ;D )

Those are all great ideas and observations. I will make improvements to this and my other plugins as time is available.

Thanks!
