I am using the AudioLogger software and it works great! I have a couple of ideas that I would love to see added to it!
TimeSlotLength in the GUI would be great!
Audio Loss (Silence Sense) alarms that can be configured from the GUI as follows:
-Send out Alert E-mails when audio is lost per Slot or per server.
-SMTP unauthenticated and authenticated support for email alerts.
-Setting for single alert to be sent out or multiple alerts to be sent at specific intervals until audio is restored.
-SNMP Support for alarms. Ability to send out alarm triggers via SNMP.
Just a couple of thoughts! Thanks for creating and supporting this software.
The hidden TimeSlotLength setting has only been added a few weeks ago on request by a customer. It will make it into the GUI soon.
There is some sort of silence detection in the software already, but it is also hidden and can only be used with the JSON API part of the web server right now:
Edit AudioLogger.ini, go to the section of the desired slot, and insert the following line:
SilenceThreshold=-30
This tells Audio Logger that everything at or below -30dB is to be considered silence.
Now set up the web server and a user, and go to the following URL:
(0 refers to the first slot, 1 would be the second etc.)
The web server will return a number which is the number of seconds since the audio signal was last above the silence threshold. The mechanism can be used to build a silence detector using external check/notification software like e.g. Nagios/Icinga which handles all the notifications.
