Fwd: Contribute the project

[Didier Spaier]

Hello,

I am looking for an answer to the forwarded email, as I don't have one.

I assume that we need to record the audio output sent either by
speech-dispatcher to the software set as AudioOutputMethod (libao by 
default in
Slint, with alsa as default_driver in /etc/libao.conf) or by this 
software. Or
can Alsa somehow both send its output in the audio equipment and record 
it at
the same time? Would it be easier setting pulse as AudioOutputMethod?

Any clue appreciated.

Cheers,

Didier

Another problem. I'm trying to help Shinji to get around the Crowdin
editor to translate the handbook. He's having trouble selecting the
string he wants to translate, and wants me to record an audio tutorial
for him, with me explaining what to press and the screen reader
speaking as I press the keys. How can I record the screen reader's
audio directly from the computer? I can select the microphone as input
source in Amixer and record my voice on the microphone, and also the
sound from other devices if I plug them to the line in and select line
input in Amixer, but still didn't find a way to record the sound that
comes from the computer itself. Well, I was actually able to record
the sound of some music software that route their audio through JACK
(Jack Audio Connection Kit), but I never managed to record the sound
from the screen reader. Any ideas on how to do that?
