(USB) webcam microphone does not work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I have a Philips SPC620NC webcam, connected via USB and using the 
uvcvvideo driver. Video is fine, but I can't get the internal 
microphone working.

I have the needed USB sound modules loaded and I checked (hopefully 
correctly) with alsamixer that nothing is muted.

arecord -l lists the device correctly, but when I make a test with

arecord -vv -D default:1 test.wav

I get a test.wav that contains no sound. Below you can see the output of 
the above command.

System: openSUSE 10.3 with ALSA 1.0.14 running KDE with artsd

Thanx a lot in advance for any hint
