Hi,

I'm supposed to make something that can save streaming audio in mp3 format. This needs to be done entirely through a webpage. Pretty much, the user presses a button that says "start recording", talks into his computer mic, and then presses "stop recording". Saving the audio file to the server could be done either by streaming the spoken audio (48kbps) in live time and somehow writing it to a file as it gets uploaded or by saving it as a temporary file somehow on the user's computer then uploading it.

Is this possible with php? Is it possible at all? It needs to be done without having to download anything, and activex is definately not preferred.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Rick

 
You should ask this in the Flash forum. Flash has the ability to use a computer's microphone. If you check your Flash player preferences, you will see a way to enable or disable your microphone.

If you are not looking to archive the recordings - - but rather use this as a live broadcasting system - - look into keyword 'VOIP' and consider conference calling.
