[Sugar-devel] New Dextrose 2 build: os438dx

[Art Hunkins]

Bernie,

Thanks for this info. I can report that Record-87 acts like v86 in that it 
does not allow for audio recording. In both cases, when you hit Stop 
following recording, the activity seems to get lost during the save process 
and never reemerges. You can close the activity, but that's all.

FWIW, I've copied the logs for both v86 and v87. One difference I noted is 
that the v87 activity icon gets stuck in "Starting..", whereas I don't think 
this is the case with v86. It looks like both versions saved correctly and 
then got sidetracked. (I gave both runs several minutes or more time to 
"recover" from saving.)

I continue to be very concerned about Record because, to my knowledge, *with 
versions of SoaS higher than Strawberry*, no Record produces Ogg Vorbis 
sound recordings (one or two produce Ogg Speex, which of course are both of 
lower sound quality, and are not handled by Csound). For certain, starting 
with Record-76, *all* should produce Ogg Vorbis.

v86 log:
