Source Tab - Recording From Soundcard

Created by Jason Carr, Modified on Thu, 14 Mar at 6:16 PM by Jason Carr

Recording from a Sound card input can be very useful when you need to record a feed and then play it back at a later time in PlayoutONE. Once the recording has been recorded FileCopy will move the recording to a destination folder. This could be a folder Auto Importer is looking at, allowing the recorded file to be imported into PlayoutONE.

CaptureChoose from an Input or Output device on the sound card. 
InterfaceDirectsound, WASAPI or ASIO may be chosen. WASAPI is recommended 
DeviceChoose the device to record from 
Asio Left / RightChoose the ASIO device left and right channels to record.  
Delay Recording StartDelay the recording start. As FileCopy starts jobs at the top of the minute, This can be useful if you need to start a recording at another interval.  For Example, if a recording is due to start on a satellite feed at 09:58:50, you would schedule the job to start at 09:58:00 and delay recording for 50 seconds. 
Recording DurationThe total duration that the recording should last for. 
ExportChoose to export the first or last sections of the recording only. 
Start Recording When Sound DetectedOnly start the recording when sound is detected. This setting can be useful if you are not quite sure when the recording may start. If this setting is enabled then Recording Duration will be disabled. 
Safety Net TimerThis setting allows you to abort a recording if it hasn't started after a set duration. This setting is only available if you have enabled the Start Recording When Sound Detected option.  
Stop Recording When Sound No Longer DetectedWhen enabled, this setting will stop the recording when audio has not been detected for more than 10 seconds. If this setting is enabled then  Recording Duration will be disabled. 
Stop Recording When Stop Command ReceivedWhen enabled, this job will only be stopped when a Stop command is received. See FileCopy Commands.
If this setting is enabled then Recording Duration will be disabled. 
Record ContinuouslyWhen enabled, as soon as this job has finished recording, it will begin recording again. 
Record To Stream FileWhen enabled, FileCopy will record to a designated filename. This then allows PlayoutONE to play the file whilst it is being recorded to via a Stream Play command
