Error -231 Starting Recording

Post by johnmiller1950 » Mon Nov 07, 2011 9:44 pm

It's a great day to be using LiveCode !!!

I am trying to record a sound file as a movie. This works on my Mac, but doesn't under Windows XP, Vista, or 7. LiveCode is loading quicktime at launch, and I am able to play files, but when I try to record, I get "Error -231 Starting Recording." I am using Parallels 7, but if I open quicktime, I am able to record, so I don't think this is the issue.

Here's my code:

on mouseUp
set the recordInput to "imic"
set the recordformat to "Movie"
set the recordChannels to 2 -- STEREO
set the recordCompression to "raw " -- NONE
set the recordRate to 48.00
set the recordsampleSize to 16
set the filename of cd player "Recording" to empty
put cd fld "Current Book Folder" into fileXX
put "/Recordings/Recording." & BB & ".mov" after fileXX
record sound file fileXX
end mouseUp

I'd appreciate any help you can offer.
Thanks,
John Miller
