Hello, I'm trying to record audio playing on the computer. I followed the instructions at http://www.audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php?title=Recording_audio_playing_on_the_computer . I run AlsaMixer (v1.0.16), switched to the view "Capture" and stuck: the only devices are "Capture", "Digital" and "Input Source". But there is no device "Mix". Why it could be so? Should I add some option somewhere to get "Mix"? Any ideas are welcome! Card: HDA Intel Chip (as said by AlsaMixer): SigmaTel STAC9227 Linux kernel version: 2.6.18 Alsa version: 1.0.14 There are no options in modules.conf. I load the sound modules manually: # modprobe snd-hda-intel # modprobe snd_pcm_oss # modprobe snd_seq_oss Somehow automatically, other sound modules are also loaded: snd_seq_dummy 8196 0 snd_seq_oss 38656 0 snd_seq_midi_event 11520 1 snd_seq_oss snd_seq 56784 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,\ snd_seq_midi_event snd_seq_device 12556 3 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq snd_pcm_oss 47008 0 snd_mixer_oss 21120 3 snd_pcm_oss snd_hda_intel 266524 3 snd_pcm 81540 2 snd_pcm_oss,snd_hda_intel snd_timer 26116 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd 59112 11 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,\ snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,\ snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 13792 3 snd snd_page_alloc 14088 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm Output from amixer: Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 Capabilities: pvolume Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 255 Mono: Front Left: Playback 245 [96%] [-2.00dB] Front Right: Playback 245 [96%] [-2.00dB] Simple mixer control 'Front',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 127 Mono: Front Left: Playback 122 [96%] [-3.75dB] [on] Front Right: Playback 122 [96%] [-3.75dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Surround',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 127 Mono: Front Left: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [off] Front Right: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [off] Simple mixer control 'Center',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 127 Mono: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [off] Simple mixer control 'LFE',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 127 Mono: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [off] Simple mixer control 'Line In as Output',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'Mic as Output',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'Capture',0 Capabilities: cvolume cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 4 Front Left: Capture 4 [100%] [40.00dB] [on] Front Right: Capture 4 [100%] [40.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Digital',0 Capabilities: cvolume Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 120 Front Left: Capture 120 [100%] [30.00dB] Front Right: Capture 120 [100%] [30.00dB] Simple mixer control 'Input Source',0 Capabilities: cenum Items: 'Mic' 'Front Mic' 'Line' Item0: 'Mic' -- Oleg Parashchenko olpa@ http://uucode.com/ http://bbAntiSpam.com/ Universal antispam for forums, blogs, etc http://uucode.com/blog/ Generative Programming, XML, TeX, Scheme ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
