The Bwave Audio Recording Module allows users to record audio sources to a separate wav / bwav compatible file, while the video is recorded to a StreamPix sequence file. Furthermore, the module maintains audio signal in synch with video, provided there is sufficient disk bandwidth available for recording both media.

The module generates 3 possible audio file formats:

• Standard wave file;
• Single bwave file: The whole audio stream is recorded into a single continuous bwav compatible file format (default);
• Multiple bwave: Allows the recording to be paused. Upon resume, a new bwav file is added and linked to the previous file.

Bwave file format is only supported by QuickTime Player. It is not supported by Windows Media Player. Bwave format is based on wav audio format, but includes extra metadata like time stamp, link to other related bwav files (typical upon non linear editing).
