Recording starts but doesn't paste to Anki after ending.

[venturiq]

I downloaded this script a couple of days ago and it worked perfectly. I don't really know what happened, but now it just gives me the "Recording..." notification and when I hit my bind again nothing happens. Sometimes it does end up adding the card minutes after I've ended the recording. Nothing gets printed when I enter the command into the terminal. I don't know what to do. Please help. I love this tool. Thank you.

It seems to be stuck in this loop:

Duplicate of https://github.com/eshrh/ames/issues/14? We haven't actually fixed https://github.com/eshrh/ames/issues/14 yet, so feel free to keep the issue open...

I ran into this issue today, and using some insight from #14 I was able to get a working config by replacing the recording function with pw-record -P '{ stream.capture.sink=true }' "$audio_file" and removing a few things that didn't seem to be needed anymore from record_start and record_end. It does rely on pipewire, and may not conform to any given setup, but it should be a solid start!

Here is the config:

```bash record_function() { local -r audio_file="$1" pw-record -P '{ stream.capture.sink=true }' "$audio_file" 1> /dev/null & } record_start() { # begin recording audio. local -r audio_file="$(mktemp \ "/tmp/pipewire-recording.XXXXXX.$AUDIO_FORMAT")" echo "$audio_file" > "$recording_toggle" record_function "$audio_file" echo "$!" >> "$recording_toggle" current_time >> "$recording_toggle" notify_record_start } record_end() { # end recording. local -r audio_file="$(sed -n "1p" "$recording_toggle")" local -r pid="$(sed -n "2p" "$recording_toggle")" local -r start_time="$(sed -n "3p" "$recording_toggle")" local -r duration="$(($(current_time) - start_time))" if [ "$duration" -le "$MINIMUM_DURATION" ]; then sleep "$((MINIMUM_DURATION - duration))e-3" fi rm "$recording_toggle" kill -15 "$pid" while [ "$(du "$audio_file" | awk '{ print $1 }')" -eq 0 ]; do true done store_file "${audio_file}" update_sound "$(basename -- "$audio_file")" notify_record_stop } ```

This actually fixed it for me. Thank you!

Oh we have very different setups and you also had the same problem as me, maybe it is an ffmpeg or kernel issue?

Anyway, my setup here if anyone is interested to dive further on the issue.

My version with the pw-record command (feel free to create a PR with this if anybody wants, I'm too lazy for that

record_function() {
    local -r audio_file="$1"
    # We need the & at the end otherwise it hangs in the pw-record
    pw-record -P '{ stream.capture.sink=true }' "$audio_file" &
}

record_start() {
    # begin recording audio.
    local -r audio_file="$(mktemp \
                               "/tmp/ffmpeg-recording.XXXXXX.$AUDIO_FORMAT")"
    echo "$audio_file" >"$recording_toggle"

    record_function "$audio_file"
    echo "$!" >> "$recording_toggle"

    current_time >> "$recording_toggle"

    notify_record_start
}

record_end() {
    local -r audio_file="$(sed -n "1p" "$recording_toggle")"
    local -r pid="$(sed -n "2p" "$recording_toggle")"
    local -r start_time="$(sed -n "3p" "$recording_toggle")"
    local -r duration="$(($(current_time) - start_time))"

    echo "The pid is: ${pid}"
    if [ "$duration" -le "$MINIMUM_DURATION" ]; then
        sleep "$((MINIMUM_DURATION - duration))e-3"
    fi

    rm "$recording_toggle"
    kill -15 "$pid"

    wait "$pid" || true

    while [ "$(du "$audio_file" | awk '{ print $1 }')" -eq 0 ]; do
        true
    done

    store_file "${audio_file}"
    update_sound "$(basename -- "$audio_file")"

    notify_record_stop
}

record() {
    # this section is a heavily modified version of the linux audio
    # script written by salamander on qm's animecards.
    recording_toggle="/tmp/ffmpeg-recording-audio"

    if [[ ! -f /tmp/ffmpeg-recording-audio ]]; then
        record_start
    else
        record_end
    fi
