Look at "man arecord" for all the switches. Try using "-r 48000" ( in stead of -f dat ). "-c 1" is not necessary. Maybe "-f S16_LE" ?? Alsa is supposed to work on all possible different hardware, so it is -very- flexible... --Japser. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Register now and save $200.
