wavrec & mpegrec  2/2000   Andrew L. Sandoval  sandoval@netwaysglobal.com===============================================================================Building wavrec:===============================================================================wavrec and mpegrec are designed to work on Linux x86 systems withsound cards already supported by the kernel.  If your card works with /dev/dspand /usr/include/sys/soundcard.h then wavrec should work for you.mpegrec is wavrec with add logic to pipe WAV output to the 'lame' mp3encoder.  For details on lame see: http://www.sulaco.org/mp3.  You can compileand install mpegrec on a system lacking 'lame', but it will not functionproperly until lame is installed and in your PATH.To build wavrec and mpegrec simply type 'make' at the shell:$ makeTo install wavrec and a sym-link for mpegrec type 'make install':$ make installBy default the files will be installed in /usr/local/bin.  If you prefer anotherlocation set the PREFIX environment variable when calling make.For example, say you would prefer installation in /usr/bin.  Simply type:$ make install PREFIX=/usrThe Makefile is also setup to look for libhoard (See http://www.hoard.org fordetails).  libhoard is a library seeks to prevent heap contention on SMPsystems.  If you have installed libhoard in /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib theMakefile should be able to find it.===============================================================================Portability===============================================================================I have only tested this on a dual Pentium II 450 running Linux Mandrake 7.0.  Iam confident however that it should work on any Linux machine with a supportedsound card and sufficient memory and CPU power to handle the double bufferingrecorded to capture high bitrate audio and encode it with lame.-Andrew L.
