Recording audio

[dalkin]

I just can't get my head around using cameraControlSet and cameraControlDo for a Windows version of my app .. I'm trying to enable user recorded audio and playback so the script refers to buttons to enable this. I've got this far but no further. Can anyone spot the blindingly obvious issue? I've obviously been locked in isolation with my wife too long. mergeMicrophone is working fine on OSX.

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put the cUserDefinedRecordingFolder of this card into tUserFolder
   
   ## User did not define a folder yet:
   if there is not a folder tUserFolder then
      answer folder "Select a folder for the recordings:"
      if the result is cancel then
         exit to top
      end if
      ## We store the folder also in a custom property:
      set the cUserDefinedRecordingFolder of this stack to IT      
      ## We need this in this script:
      put it into tUserFolder
   end if
   
   set the recordFormat to "wav"
   ask "Please name the recording:"
   if it = empty then
      exit to top
   end if
   put it into tUserDefinedName
   put tUserFolder & "/" & tUserDefinedName & ".wav" into tFile
   
   ## Now set two custom properties fo the PLAY1 button, so the button knows what to play when clicked!
   set the cAudioFile of btn "play1" to tFile
   set the filename of player "P1" to tFile
   set the cUserDefinedName of btn "play1" to tUserDefinedName
   cameraControlSet "MyCamera", "audioDevice", "default"
   cameraControlDo, "MyCamera", "startRecording", "tUserDefinedName"
   set the label of button "Record1" to "Recording"
   set the backgroundcolor of button "Record1" to orange
   ##
   
end mouseUp

I have not checked properly and can't test on computer, but first thing I noticed was the cUserDefinedRecordingFolder being checked as a property of "this card" in one place and of "this stack" in another.
Actual playback code I haven't studied.

Yep. It's the way it works on the OSX version (and works well) .. Windows may have some snafu but I don't know the system environment well enough. I'm pretty sure that the problem is with cameraControlSet and cameraControlDo but I can't find a combination that works.
