Problem recording from a microphone

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

 



Hi,
I am trying to record from a microphone but nothing that I do seem to result 
in a sound file. It seems, I enabled the mcrophone, capture, set the input 
gain, etc. I can even hear myself in the speakers when I talk to my mic (it 
supports both recording and playing). But when I try to record anything to a 
file I get nothing there.

[serge@yarilo ~]$ arecord -l

[serge@yarilo ~]$ arecord -d 5 -Dplughw:CK804,1 o.wav
Recording WAVE 'o.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono

I also tried to record to any possible device, CK804,1 and CK804,0, although 
the last one seems to be a line input while my mic is connected to the mic 
input. Can anyone help? I attach amixer output here just in case...

Thanks in advance,
