I'm searching for a lib or a program to get input from a microphone. The lib could be c written too, and i could interface it with BlitzMax.

If you can get portaudio working on linux its probably *just* what you want Its working on Mac and Windows for Max The C samples work in Linux, but I've had problems opening a stream with Max, I havent had chance to investigate further due to time presures maybe you'd like to have a look?

do portaudio record from mic? this is the only thing i would need. however, poring on Linux depends on which system apis does it use.

Chris C (Posted 2006) [#4]

it allows you to stream either input or output or both

splinux (Posted 2006) [#5]

it doesn't work with Linux. any other idea?

Chris C (Posted 2006) [#6]

The C samples work fine... I'm sure with a bit of messing round the max module could work too, when I get time I look, how far did you get?

splinux (Posted 2006) [#7]

i need that lib in a little time. i think the problem is that i use alsa.

Chris C (Posted 2006) [#10]

neat thx skid!

splinux (Posted 2006) [#11]

Where will you upload the module?

splinux (Posted 2006) [#12]

Have you put it online?

...SyncMods...

splinux (Posted 2006) [#14]

portaudio on syncmods? what do you mean? i've tryied to syncmod but there weren't new modules.

Chris C (Posted 2006) [#15]

you have to sync mods for axe.portaudio, but he hasnt uploaded a changed version sinve v1.1 as far as I can see syncmods -u username -p pass axe.portaudio

splinux (Posted 2006) [#16]

it doesn't do anything...

Chris C (Posted 2006) [#17]

I think its only on the win modserver?

splinux (Posted 2006) [#18]

maybe. i'll try downloading it on windows, but how for Linux?

splinux (Posted 2006) [#19]

yes, on win it works, but the downloaded module is only win and mac compatible.

splinux (Posted 2006) [#20]

@skidracer: have you put the module on Linux mod servers?

Yan (Posted 2006) [#21]

Apologies, given skids previous post and that it had appeared on the win server, I assumed it would be on the Linux server too.

splinux (Posted 2006) [#22]

i didn't found it. however i'm not at my vomputer now, so i'll try tomorrow.

splinux (Posted 2006) [#23]

I've tryied, but it still doesn't work.
