Tivo-like audio recording in OneNote, 5 second buffer for record.

[Brent Yager]

I have really come to enjoy the benefits of using OneNote during my many
business meetings. I do believe audio recording is an important feature;
however, I'm always too late when attempting to record that "something
important" comment.

As a developer, I know this might be difficult ... but nonetheless this
feature would prove invaluable. With Tivo-like recording functionality, I
could count on my machine to be constantly recording a meeting or
conversation. If I select to record, I would like the previous 5+ seconds
recorded before the time I requested. This way I could be sure that what I
wanted to record wasn't missed. "Buffer time," or audio time-shifting, would
be much appreciated. If I don't ever click record, then that recorded time
will never be "permanently" written to the machine ... just like Tivo!

That's an interesting idea, but difficult to implement in a practical way
I suspect. You could always just get in the habit of recording
everything.

Brent,
Once OneNote is recording, you have control of the when the click markers
are set. If you go to Tools--> Options-->Audio and Video, you will see an
entry in the middle of the page that says:
When playing linked audio and video, rewind from the start of the paragraph
by the following number of seconds:

What I do, is let the thing record the whole meeting and then click and type
"Important" or some other self trigger when something is said that I need to
find later in the audio. Play with it and let us know if that does what you
want it to do.
