Does anyone know of software for Linux that will record sound with voice activation?
Ideally what I want is something that will (with very good startup speed) be able to run as a daemon (or even through a shell script with a continuous loop) and, every time it detects audio on line-in, start recording, record for a few seconds past the end of the sound, and then dump it into a timestamped file.
Ideally, I'd also like it to be able to add some basic info - a timestamp and filename - into a database, though I could always hack this in myself or parse the filenames.
For anyone who's interested, I need to log traffic on a 2-way radio (receiver plugged into line in) and then have the files listed in a database with timestamp for later post-processing.
Thanks for any solutions. I can't seem to find anything out there except for the Linux version of
NCH VRS, which I downloaded - and the installer TOTALLY screwed up my laptop. It appears to have overwritten all of /bin and /sbin, to the point that the system won't boot!
