Description negrea 2012-05-29 19:59:39 UTC

I can't record in gnomeradio either, just an empty sound-file is what I get.
(see screenshot)

When start gnomeradio from terminal and try to record this error show up:

(gnomeradio:2084): gnomeradio-WARNING **: GStreamer runtime error: Could not open audio device for recording.

Also, I think it is better to change GtkButton to a GtkFileChooserButton, instead of fidling around with the dialog to choose a destination folder for recording file location.

To solve this error the code in "rec_tech.c" should use either "autoaudiosrc" element insted of "osssrc" for the audio source gstreamer recording.

I think should change audio source from osssrc to autoaudiosrc that automatically detects an appropriate audio source to use.

There was no active development since 2008. 
Not sure if filing bug reports without a patch makes much sense here.

Note to myself: This is about version "1.8-2ubuntu1".

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, this module is dead, so it won't recive more bug fixes nor updates.
Comment 5 André Klapper 2012-11-16 13:29:15 UTC
According to its developer, gnomeradio is not under active development
anymore.

It is unlikely that there will be any further active development.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping - Please feel
free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility
for active development again.
