Hi,

I am writing an Application to grab a sound either from the Microphone or
from a sound file and then write it back to another file.

I use the SGSettingsDialog function to record the sound from the microphone.
The dialog it displays has a "options" button that allows you to set the
compression and the sampling rate, etc. This seems to work fine.

When I load the sound from a file though, I want to be able to set the
options, both via the dialog or to use a default other than the default that
is set by QuickTime.

I can't seem to find any function(s) that allow me to set the parameters from
my program instead of via the dialog.

Any ideas?

Thanks in Advance for the Help
Eric
