Ipaq 2210 recording issues

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Hi

I'm to record a voice memo with my Ipaq 2210 and I set up the way that the
voice file is save on my SD card. For some reason, the recording stopped on
around 3 mins mark. I just wondering is there anyone experience the same
problem and is there anyway to resolve it?

Thanks

Alex

I ended up getting Resco's Audio Recorder. It will record in 64bps mp3
format and its own proprietary audio format (I use this one because it has
the best sound quality and best compression, but I must manually decompress
at the pc).

You can find this one at...

| here's a message I posted a while back, when I encountered the same
| problem.... there may be better fixes out there, but I haven't seen
| them.....
|
|
|
| I think I've found a work-around for the problem with limited recording
time
| after installing the ROM update..... I noticed that the size of the "Ipaq
| file store" is shown as around 3.84meg, the same size as the audio file
that
| NOTE will record for me on my CF card. I tried putting a large file in the
| file store and then making a recording, and was able to go past the 4 meg
| size every time!
|
|
| 1. In NOTES, tap OPTIONS and then INPUT OPTIONS. Use the highest quality
| recording setting (around 170k/second). This generates large files FAST!
|
| 2. While in OPTIONS, select IPAQ FILE STORE as the destination instead of
| your card.
|
| 3. start recording, let it stop on its own, which will place a 3.7meg file
| in the file store. You can leave it named RECORDING1, or change it to
| something else, like DUMMY or XXXXXX if you wish, it doesn't seem to
| matter....
|
| 4. Go back into OPTIONS and change to the CF or SD card as the
destination,
| depending on what you have inserted.
|
| 5. Start another recording, and let it run for 30-60 seconds, then stop.
|
| 6. in FILE EXPLORER, take a look at the MY DOCUMENTS directory on your
card,
| and you should see a file RECORDING1, between 8 and 16meg in size!
|
| 7. Delete that file, it was just a test. By using the high quality
setting,
| you were able to do the test in a minute instead of having to run over 40
| minutes at the lowest quality setting, but now you know if it works or
not.
| Mind did, repeatedly!
|
| 8. Go back under OPTIONS and INPUT OPTIONS, and select the quality setting
| you normally want to use, so you can get reasonably sized files....
|
|
| Just leave that "dummy" file in the IPAQ FILE STORAGE. Seems a shame to
| waste the space, but for me it's worth getting back decent recording
| function, at least until something better comes along.....
