Warning: Long message below...
After reaching a dead-end for the zillionth time during the last month,
I have decided to finally post my experiences here.. I apologize if
that's gonna end up feeling like a short novel, feel free to ignore it :)
To start up, my current ALSA information sits here -->
http://pastebin.ca/525842
I have an RME Hammerfall DSP + Multiface combo sound card on an Intel(R)
Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz machine with 2GB RAM, running Ubuntu Edgy
that currently seems closer to an Ubuntu Feisty after all the upgrades I
have done on it and a simiral machine that still has the default Ubuntu
Edgy Server Edition on it with no software upgrades..
I have tried various software & configuration combinations during this
time with the aim to make the server-side of a radio ripping service.
The HDSP Multiface has 8 analog mono inputs / 8 analog mono outputs let
alone the ADATs and SPDIFs.. What I want to do is record one radio
station via some radio tuners I have here on each input of the multiface
and record each one to a separate WAV file, splitting as necessary
before the 2GB WAV file limit. Everything should be done using
command-line tools and scripts since this is a server with no GUI on top.
jackd + N * jack_capture clients .... a small amount of hacking to
jack_capture might be needed to limit the duration of the recording.
