2. Installation

2.1 Where to get KSoundrecord ?

The program can be downloaded from the KSoundrecord Homepage.

2.2 Requirements

As a KDE-program it needs KDE 1.1.2 and QT 1.44 .

For the Sound-Recording and -Playback You need either 'Sox'(rec/play) or 'sound-recorder' . Sox should be included in most Linux-Distributions. I found the recording-quality of 'sound-record' to be better with my 'Soundblaster Live!'© .

For mp3-Encoding You will need lame (testet with Version 3.5) . The direct mp3-playback uses 'XMMS' .

2.3 How to Compile and Install

In order to compile and install Ksoundrecord on your system, type the following in the base directory of the KSoundrecord distribution:

% ./configure
% make
% make install

Since Ksoundrecord uses

autoconf
you should have not trouble compiling it. Should you run into problems please report them to the the author at Mathias Zander
