Recording and sending audio.
« on: January 12, 2014, 03:06:59 pm »
I want to create voice chat in my little game it looks like this:
for(;;)
{
    recorder.start();
    recorder.stop();
    send(recorder.getbuffer());
}

It doesn't work but I tried something another ...:
recorder.start();
send(recorder.getbuffer());


this too didn't work, I have to record and send it at the same time, please help me  Bartek.

You need to learn more about programming and especially on the topics of audio processing and streaming. I can only guess, but I'd say SFML is not the best library to implement voice chat with.

Also "doesn't work" is not a problem description, read this post.

And for posting code you should always use the [ code=cpp ] tag.

  • Record audio into a buffer
  • When buffer is full send it to the client
  • Receive the audio data and load it into a sound buffer
  • Play the sound buffer
  • Goto 1

It is very much possible with SFML, but unless you learn more about coding/streaming/audio processing as eXpl0it3r said you will have a hard time making it work.  ;)

it's beside the point, what I mean is record and send file at the same time when the record is not over.
