Hi All, I'm still puzzling over getting my Aspire One so I can record its audio output to a file. I've got an .asoundrc file as below, and whay I'm trying to do with this is: 1) Setup card0 as the internal sound card (this works) 2) Setup the loopback adapter so I can test the setup (this works too) The only thing I can't see to get working it the copy plugin (copier) which only ever seems to "copy" to the last slave that I specify... e.g. If I set my .asoundrc file as below and send some sound data to default then: arecord -D p_card1out1 -f cd | aplay -D card0 -f cd Will play the input as expected arecord -D p_card1out0 -f cd | aplay -D card0 -f cd Will produce nothing :( Got me baffled, any help much appreciated, -thanks in advance -Duncan. pcm.card0 { type hw card 0 } pcm.p_card1in0 { type plug slave { pcm "hw:1,0,0" } } pcm.p_card1in1 { type plug slave { pcm "hw:1,0,1" } } pcm.p_card1out0 { type plug slave { pcm "hw:1,1,0" } } pcm.p_card1out1 { type plug slave { pcm "hw:1,1,1" } } pcm.copier { type copy slave.pcm "p_card1in0" slave.pcm "p_card1in1" } pcm.!default { type plug slave { pcm "copier" } } This message has been checked for viruses but the contents of an attachment may still contain software viruses, which could damage your computer system: you are advised to perform your own checks.
