Mousai says microphone is muted about mousai

[archisman-panigrahi]

I installed previous versions one by one, and 0.4.4 is the last version that works in my computer (0.5.0 shows the same issue).

Your microphone works propertly, I think. It is just the recorder is not recording because of that error.

/home/archisman/.cache/tmp Does this directoey exist?

[SeaDve]

This is related to this I suppose

I made a release and it should also now come to aur

[SeaDve]

I shoud have implemented more helpful error messages 😅

[archisman-panigrahi]

It is showing the same error message. I tried deleting /home/archisman/.cache/tmp, but that did not work.
It is creating an empty file mousaitmp.ogg in the ~/.cache/tmp directory.
Also, now it does not show any error message in the terminal.
I also locally installed from source using meson and ninja, and the same error message exists.

I noticed that until 0.4.4 the AUR package used /tmp (not .cache/tmp). Is there a way to hardcode mousai to always use /tmp instead on .~/cache/tmp?

You can modify get_tmp_dir() in utils directory, make it return '/tmp'

I won't prefer this though, it would be better to fix it properly so other won't get the same issue.

I think the issue is fixed then? There is btw a new option in the hamburger menu to change audio source if that change anything

No, I meant, the same issue from AUR is present when I install from source.

[SeaDve]

No, I meant, the same issue from AUR is present when I install from source.

I mean't the issue that the recorder doesn't detect the audio file, since it doesnt output any error anymore on the terminal.

So i assume it may be a different issue, not something has to do with the tmpdir

Now it is working.
It seems that Desktop Audio was selected instead of microphone, and that is why it still said "muted".

I will do a few more tests, and close this issue in a few hours (till then, please keep it open).

[SeaDve]

Okay, thanks. You can close it yourself

It's weird though that it is defaulted to desktop audio, the microphone is the set default in the src code

[archisman-panigrahi]

Thank you for the quick fix.
