DSD+ Audio Recording

[LubeckTech]

From I have read I believe DSD+ has the ability to save decoded audio as MP3 files.
How would I go about doing this??
Been looking and have not seen any instructions as to how to do it and have not been able to figure it out.

dsdplus -h

-P<wav|mp3> Also create per-call wav or mp3 files

If you set -Pwav, it'll create per-call WAV files. If you set -Pmp3, it'll create per-call MP3 files.

Note: all of the DSDPlus-related executables have a -h switch for help. If you ever wonder what it supports, one of the first things you should do is run the exe with the -h switch.

Note: If you are running the free version of DSDPlus from www.dsdplus.com, it may not allow for this. I don't know.

Thanks Mike!

I managed to figure out the -P command as you were typing your reply.
Now is there a way I can tell it where to save the files other than the default folder in the working directory??

Tell it where to go, quite literally!

Here is an example for setup in a batch file -

-OS C:\Recordings\DSDPLUS\P25_Berkeley_County\BCP25.mp3

My batch file for 2 Airspy's using DSDPlus latest Fastlane. XXX.XXXX.bat

start FMPA -i1 -o20003 -b12.5 -fXXX.XXXX -L11 -M11 -V6
start FMPA -i2 -o20002 -b12.5 -rv -L10 -M10 -V6
start DSDPlus -fa -i20003 -rc
start DSDPlus -fa -rv -o1 -i20002 -O XXX.XXXX.wav -Pwav -E -T

1. Where XXX.XXXX is the system you are listening.

2. -O XXX.XXXX will creat 2 files in the directory where the .exe files are
if you don't specify a path, if you want a different location -O C:\101\XXX.XXXX.wav.
XXX.wav is the audio file.
XXX.srt is a subtitle file. I had seen this file but did not know what is was
for. When you open the XXX.wav file it will show the time, ran, TG, Rid etc if
the player you are using is setup correctly. Slicerwizard graciously told me to
use VLC. This player will show the info in the .srt file when you click AUDIO
then VISUALATIONS then VU METER after you start the .wav file. Windows Media
Player will do this after you install an addin, which I did not figure out.
I don't know if this is a bug or not, the .srt file will only show TG, Ran if
you have recorded a P1 system. On a DMR file is just shows date and time.

3. -Pwav records a file in folder c:\101\VC-Record\year-month-day(20190420)\ after each tranmission. The files are named with time system TG, RID etc info P1, Nexedge and DMR systems.

This will have mistakes, I've made a lot lately. I did not know about this until about 8-10 days ago, maybe it will help
someone like me.
