ecasound features slow recording
Hello list,
I've stumbled upon a problem with no clue of my own on where to start
looking for a solution.
I am converting some old tapes into wav files. The box is a Celeron 700
with the latest update of testing, ALSA to control the Intel 82810 sound
chip on board. Direct to disk recording is done with ecasound and the
following options: -t 1800 -i alsahw,0,0 -o filename.wav. A song which
lasts 4'35" on tape ends up as a 5'03" wave file, so much slower and
dropped in tone. Is this an ecasound problem, ALSA problem, or both?
I tried to record with an Terratec EWX 24/96, which is the second card
in the box, but ecasound refuses to take -i alsahw,1,0 which I don't
understand as card works fine for playback. Using JACK everything works
like a charm, even recording with the Terratec, but I am stubborn and
still want to know what I am doing wrong.
Lend me your brains, pleaze!
Hans
