I just tested Strawberry(Soas-v1) and Blueberry(Soas-v2) on EeePC900<br>
<br>
Strawberry: record 64=yes (no sound)<br>
65,67,79=no<br>
<br>
Blueberry: record (66,67,79)=yes (no sound)<br>
60,61,62,64=no <br>
<br>
I downloaded all of the record .xo to a USB stick <br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://download.sugarlabs.org/activities/4081">http://download.sugarlabs.org/activities/4081</a><br>
<br>
And then drag-dropped them into the sugar -journal of the test USB Soas
Stick <br>
<br>
(I had to erase ;-right click;-previous Record-xx.xo I had tested from
the sugar journal prior to next test)<br>

<pre wrap="">I'd guess the audio issues have to do with the hardware as well - though I
did not test on any of the "problem" systems enumerated in your link.
All my SoaS tests were on the same desktop computer - i.e., same hardware.
As noted, some versions of Record worked flawlessly (SoaS), others with
glitches (major or minor) and/or artifacts, and some not at all (either no
save, no play, even no load - as in Record v64 with Blueberry, "failed to
load plugin").
These results would seem to indicate issues *in addition* to hardware
variations.

<pre wrap="">I've recently developed a 4-file mono/stereo realtime mixer/processor
application in Csound, and it works well on the XO's and versions of
SoaS. So I was thinking of porting it in Python to Sugar as an Activity.
One problem: currently Csound imports standard uncompressed soundfiles,
and doesn't work with ogg. The Record Activity only outputs ogg, it
seems. I would not consider porting my application to Sugar if Csound
could handle a filetype that Record can output.
Question #1: what are the chances that Record can be enhanced to produce
wav files?
Question #2: what are the chances that Record can be made to work
dependably on Sugar .82-.88 (at least)?
With regard to question #2, I get very spotty (mixed) results for Record
(audio), as follows:
XO-1.0: Record 59 works fine; higher versions (including 64) have major
audio dropouts.
XO-1.5: Record 64 bad, with major dropouts; v67 is semi-OK as is v85
(recording artifacts and occasional glitches)
Strawberry: Record 64 works fine; further upgrades don't (including v66,
v79, v85) - *nothing (including won't save or play)*
Blueberry: v66 is semi-OK (slight artifacts, no dropouts); v64, v79 and
v81 - *nothing*
Mirabelle: v64 not tested; otherwise same results as Blueberry

<pre wrap="">look at:

"...+camera NO sound Asus Aspire One, NO camera +sound EeePC900''
It depends on the Hardware it seems..
I will try some more testing..

<pre wrap="">Bottom line: not encouraging. Is anyone currently working on Record?
