InitiateRecorder

[ginopino09]

Hi Jeremy,

I am having some trouble with InitiateRecorder()
I tried my script (that I paste here after) in the code tester of you website and it does work, but when I try it in my PCIbex builder it does not. I cannor figure out why. Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you

Giorgio

newTrial("mic",
 newVar("name"),
        
        newText("nombre", "\u00BF Cu\u00E1l es tu nombre o cu\u00E1les son las iniciales de tu nombre y apellido?").css({'font-size':'1.5vw'})
            .print("center at 50%", "middle at 50%"),
        newText("Pulsa Enter").css({'font-size':'1.5vw'}).print("center at 50%", "middle at 85%"),
        newTextInput("name").css({'font-size':'1.5vw'})
            .once()
            .print("center at 50%", "middle at 70%")
            .wait()
            .setVar( "name" )
            .log("Participant", getVar("participantsName")),
        
        clear(),
InitiateRecorder("https://pcibex.bcbl.eu/hablacon/mediarecorder.php"),
    
        newText("initials")
            .before(newText("Muy bien ").css({'font-size':'1.5vw'}))
            .text(getVar("name")).css({'font-size':'1.5vw'})
            .after( newText(", ahora entramos en modo de pantalla completa").css({'font-size':'1.5vw'}))

        newMediaRecorder("audio")
        .css({'font-size':'1.3vw'})
        .print()
        .wait()
        .play()
        .wait("playback")
        ,
        
        newText("s", "¿Se escucha bien?").css({'font-size':'1.5vw'}).print(),
        newButton("yes","SI").css({'font-size':'1.5vw'}).print("center at 50%", "middle at 40%").wait(),
        clear()
     )

Hi Giorgio,

Honestly I’m surprised your code worked anywhere: as explained in the documentation, InitiateRecorder creates a new trial, it shouldn’t be inserted inside a trial.

Try this instead:

Header(
    defaultText.css("font-size","1.5vw")
    ,
    defaultTextInput.css("font-size", "1.5vw")
    ,
    defaultButton.css("font-size","1.5vw")
)

newTrial("mic",
    newVar("participantsName").global()
    ,
    newText("nombre", "\u00BF Cu\u00E1l es tu nombre o cu\u00E1les son las iniciales de tu nombre y apellido?")
        .print("center at 50%", "middle at 50%")
    ,
    newText("Pulsa Enter")
        .print("center at 50%", "middle at 85%")
    ,
    newTextInput("name")
        .once()
        .print("center at 50%", "middle at 70%")
        .wait()
        .setVar( "participantsName" )
)
.log("Participant", getVar("participantsName"))

InitiateRecorder("https://pcibex.bcbl.eu/hablacon/mediarecorder.php").label("mic")

newTrial("mic",
    newText("initials")
        .before( newText("Muy bien ") )
        .text( getVar("participantsName") )
        .after( newText(", ahora entramos en modo de pantalla completa") )
        .print()
    ,
    newButton("Vale")
        .print("center at 50%", "middle at 50%")
        .wait(),
        
    fullscreen()
    ,
    clear()
    ,
    newText("mm","Ahora di algo y escúchalo para verificar que el micrófono es compatible con el programa. ")
        .print()
    ,
    newMediaRecorder("audio")
        .css({'font-size':'1.3vw'})
        .print()
        .wait()
        .play()
        .wait("playback")
    ,
    newText("s", "¿Se escucha bien?").print()
    ,
    newButton("yes","SI")
        .print("center at 50%", "middle at 40%")
        .wait()
)

NB: I use defaultElement commands in the Header to play with the default font sizes, but you should really use a CSS file instead.

Thank you Jeremy!
I don’t know why it worked as it was before. I used inside a trial for my previous experiment too and it worked… who knows
Anyway you solved my problem
