Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...


My version: 9.5.9.1
My system: Win 8 Prof 64bit

Video recording works nice with all tested pages. Audio works in downloading mode. NOT in Capture mode. The reason seems to be the selected audio device for recording. Windows standard device seems to be chosen. This in normally mic. So no sound.

Bypass: Enable StereoMix in Windows audio properties and set it to standard. Then restart GetFLV. --> works. But: sound level is pretty low. Even if you set the sound level in the properties of stereomix to 100% (what i recommend!). Furthermore video and audiostream aren't sychron so i have to adjust it with 3rd party software.

Requests to developers:
Please allow more options and don't fear a "silly" user! The given settings page is a stub. I would like to have the opportunity to chose a record device inside your application (additional feature: amplify recorded sound). There should be another settings tab to configure the default video and audio encoding settings. (Very) Additional feature here: configure a 3rd party encoder on your own by declaring a path and parameters (eg ffmpeg or x264).
Some of your options are a little spread over yout GUI (eg. Enable Selected Task Sound). It's nice, that you putted them at the place where you need them. But maybe your software would be easier to set up when the user is also able to configure everything from one place, which shouild be your settings page.
You have to work out the sound problem! I don't understand why it is not working now, because it plays the sound while recording, but it doesn't save it without the bypass described at the top. But the bypass has two weakspots:
1) offest between audio and video (depends on the machine i guess)
2) records every system sound, like email notification and other stuff
--> a direct recording method wouldn't have this weakspots and would offer the possibility of muting the sound while recording it over the mixer in windows. So the user would be able to listen to music or do whatever he wants while recording a video with sound!

keep on working! Your software has the potential of beeing the best recording software ;-) But it's pretty expesive (for something that can be done with freeware as well by now...)
