I'm looking for a solution of capturing a Microphone on a website.
I would really like it to be open source and/or at least free (if I have to install a special server or what/not)
Quality of sound is the most important issue here.

This has already been asked: Is it possible to record sound with HTML5?
There is no real HTML/JavaScript solution yet. It can be done with Flash, however. If you want to do that, here's a good example and tutorial.

My hatred towards flash is so great that I'm going to ask you: is it possible to do it with a Java Applet? – Asaf Apr 16 '11 at 09:22

Most likely, but I have never used Java, so I don't know. A quick Google search couldn't find any examples for me, unfortunately. – Ry- Apr 16 '11 at 19:52

@Asaf well to add to already given flash solutions ,
Flash http://sziebert.net/posts/server-side-stream-recording-updated/ . This solution uses Red5 and flash ( getMicrophone() call http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/main/00001866.html ) .
Silve Light also has Sound Capturing facility . ref: https://twitter.com/chuckstar/status/10541469193
- Java There is a sample working code in Java which can record sound in Ogg file Fomrat , but i am not sure if it can work on websites http://code.google.com/p/mind-listening/source/browse/trunk/freemind/mind-listening/jorbis-0.0.15.jar?spec=svn37&r=37

I've tried to play with Red5 a while back, it took a couple of weeks to get it working and even then - the quality was pretty bad. – Asaf Jul 26 '11 at 07:35

yeah red5 has pretty steep learning curve but its way ahead of other projects like [1] Mammoth http://mammothserver.org/ [2]PyAMF http://www.pyamf.org/index.html – Shashank Singh Sep 04 '11 at 19:08
