From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030221 Description of problem: Recording a file with Gnome Sound Recorder, when user selects "save" or "save as" a 0 byte file is created! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Gnome Sound recorder with input from microphone or line-in 2. Increase speaker volume, so that input can be verified Start recording and after "n" minutes, save the new recording 3. Select the saved file, and attempt to play it. Actual Results: Gnome Sound recorder *consistently* creates a 0 byte file. Expected Results: A file should be created in a size appropriate to the length and quality of the recording. Additional info: This problem was observed in Phoebe 2 (RH 8.0.93), and still exists in Phoebe 3 (RH 8.0.94). The most current updates from rawhide (to FEB. 22)have been applied to my system. ALSA (from freshrpms) is installed: gnome-alsamixer-0.9.2-fr1 alsaplayer-0.99.74-fr1 alsa-lib-0.9.0-fr0.rc7.1 using either of the following kernels kernel-2.4.20-2.48 (Phoebe 3 default) kernel-2.4.20-2.54 (most current from rawhide) I have also contacted the author of Gnome Sound Recorder. (Kindly refer to attachment).
Created attachment 90529 [details] email exchange to/from developer of application
I can confirm this also occurs on my system- which is vanilla Phoebe3 without ALSA.
Tried the steps described in attachment 90529 [details] with the following output. Soundcard is an AWE-64. The result is a 4K wav file, which fails to play, the command returns to the command prompt a few a few seconds.

I have just tried, and though it no longer creates a 0 byte file, the Gnome Sound Recorder (version 2.4.0) locks up when recording under KDE, and abends when playback of a recorded file is attempted under Gnome (Fedora Core 1). versions: gnome-audio-1.4.0-6, gnome-media-2.4.0-2, gnome-utils-2.4.0-1
RHL 8 is no longer a supported product. This bug still exists in RHEL3 and so I'm closing this bug as a dup of the version of the bug for RHEL3. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 106104 ***
