Question: Audio recording

[katoquro]

Hello,
Sorry for asking here - I couldn’t find a better place! 😅

Is there a way to implement a flag to record (locally) a separate audio track on start, along with another option (maybe via a separate window) to record the master sound for synchronization?

If this can already be configured, could you please guide me on how to do it?

Big thanks!

P.S. It looks like the link in the project "About" electroncapture.app isn’t working (Invalid SSL certificate).

Thank you for reporting the issue with the website. fixed.

If using VDO.Ninja with the ElectronCapture app, you can auto record with some URL parameters specified there:

https://docs.vdo.ninja/advanced-settings/recording-parameters/and-record

&autorecord&record=0 I think would record audio as PCM, for example.

I think this would record each audio track individually, however I've not tested it with the electron app before.

I'm not quite sure this is what you are asking for, but hopefully that does it?

Thanks for the quick response.
It looks like what I'm looking for, but I'm not sure it works (or I can't find where it's recorded on Linux).
I also tried using this button in the menu, but nothing happened.

If it's difficult to implement in electron maybe we can audio only option here?

The second part of my question was about recording everything together for synchronization. Separate tracks are great for podcast editing, but before synchronizing them, I need something like a bus channel with any quality.
It's not necessary, as I'm currently using OBS for that purpose, but it would be nice to have everything in one tool!

A little update:
I've discovered that Elecap recording starts only if a guest has already entered the room and is stored inside the Home directory.
