Well, it's not elegant, but it works great. Here's my little "recmp3"
script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$file = $ARGV[0];
system("lavrec -fq -in -d4 -q0 -w -r44100 -s -l 88 -c0 $file.mov");
system("lav2wav $file.mov > $file.wav");
system("bladeenc $file.wav");
unlink("$file.mov");
unlink("$file.wav");
It basically uses the mjpegtools to do the recording in quicktime
format, then it just splits out the wav portion of the quicktime movie.
bladeenc does the mp3 encoding. I'm going to encode a dozen or so of
my cassettes and then probably use eroaster or gcombust to write them
to a CD.
Thanks,
Daniel

Subject: cassettes to CDs
I finally got a CD burner, and I want to transfer all of my old audio
cassettes to CDs in mp3 format for posterity. Does anyone know of a
good Linux-based tool to record via the soundcard and write mp3's to
CD that is simple and intuitive? And by the way, how about an
easy-to-use wav recorder? I tried Sound-Studio, but it gives an error
when I try to save a recorded file... something about sox not taking
the "-r" option when both input file and output file are the same
rate.
Thanks,
Daniel
