Abstract

An information processing device includes: a detection unit that detects that an application enabling a call with another information processing device over a network occupies a microphone or a speaker; and a recording unit that starts recording of audio data output to the speaker and audio data input from the microphone in the case where the application detects that the microphone or the speaker is occupied.

Claims (18)

1. An information processing device comprising:

a detection unit that detects that an application enabling a call with another information processing device over a network occupies a microphone or a speaker;

a recording unit that starts recording of audio data output to the speaker and audio data input from the microphone in the case of detecting that the application occupies the microphone or the speaker; and

a file creation unit that acquires a name of the application that occupies the microphone or the speaker and puts the acquired application name in a file name or puts metadata of the data recorded by the recording unit in a file.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 wherein:

the detection unit detects that the application has released the microphone or the speaker; and

the recording unit stops the recording of the audio data in the case of detecting that the microphone or the speaker is released.

3. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the recording unit starts recording of video data output to a display unit in the case of detecting the occupation of the microphone or the speaker and stops the recording of the video data in the case of detecting a release of the microphone or the speaker.

4. The information processing device according to claim 3 , wherein the recording unit records the video data displayed in a window of the application that occupies the microphone or the speaker.

5. An information processing device comprising:

a detection unit that detects that an application enabling a call with another information processing device over a network occupies a microphone or a speaker;

a recording unit that starts recording of audio data output to the speaker and audio data input from the microphone in the case of detecting that the application occupies the microphone or the speaker; and

a file creation unit that acquires a window title of the application that occupies the microphone or the speaker and puts the acquired window title in a file name or puts metadata of the data recorded by the recording unit in a file.

6. The information processing device according to claim 5 wherein:

the detection unit detects that the application has released the microphone or the speaker; and

the recording unit stops the recording of the audio data in the case of detecting that the microphone or the speaker is released.

7. The information processing device according to claim 5 , wherein the recording unit starts recording of video data output to a display unit in the case of detecting the occupation of the microphone or the speaker and stops the recording of the video data in the case of detecting a release of the microphone or the speaker.

8. The information processing device according to claim 7 , wherein the recording unit records the video data displayed in a window of the application that occupies the microphone or the speaker.
