Answer 2

Hi,

I want to capture voice in raw format and want save it in FLAC format. Please help me regarding this. Tell me documentation/link to do it by using c# or C++. I have already seen WASAPI sample.

Answer 3

WASAPI is the best way to do the capture in raw format, but you can also look at the MediaStreamSource sample. Saving as FLAC is more difficult: you would need to implement a FLAC Media Foundation Codec and sink and include them in your appxpackage. This is extremely difficult if you aren't very familiar with media programming, but take a look at the Media Extensions sample and the Real-Time Communication sample.
