This version only supports capture of PCM streams over a compressed device and saves these as WAV files.
Thanks for posting this :) I was about to ping you ad get these done if you were busy...
Sorry about the delay on looking at this again, I keep getting pulled off in other directions :-)
+static void usage(void) +{
- fprintf(stderr, "usage: crec [OPTIONS] filename\n"
"-c\tcard number\n"
"-d\tdevice node\n"
"-b\tbuffer size\n"
"-f\tfragments\n"
"-v\tverbose mode\n"
"-l\tlength of record in seconds\n"
perhaps it would be more intutive for time. We cant use d here :(
Yeah can't use 'd', I guess I could use 't' if preferred?
"-h\tPrints this help list\n\n"
"-C\tSpecify the number of channels (default %u)\n"
"-R\tSpecify the sample rate (default %u)\n"
can these be lower case?
Unfortunately, 'c', card and 'f', fragments are both used so I opted to use capitals for the stream parameters (channels, rate, format). I am open to changing these to something else but you end up using weird letters for things and caps felt most clear.
"-F\tSpecify the format: S16_LE, S32_LE (default S16_LE)\n\n"
"Example:\n"
"\tcrec -c 1 -d 2 test.wav\n"
"\tcrec -f 5 test.wav\n",
DEFAULT_CHANNELS, DEFAULT_RATE);

why w+?
Oops, yeah that should be changed.

why not do memset of the codec and configure only what we need...
Yeah, that is a good point I will update this as well.
Thanks, Charles
