How to record audio from a live video (youtube via firefox) ?

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

 



Hi,

 I want to record the audio of a live stream video (youtube).

 Everything I tried resulted in audio files with constant or
 intermitted sine wave like sounds.

 I am using pure alsa. I don't want pulseaudio and with jack
 started firefoxs audio does not work.

 How can I accomplish this recording task successfully ?

 My setup:

 GENTOO Linux
 External USB audio DAC (FIIO Olympus 2)

 No $HOME/.asoundrc
 /etc/conf.d/alsasound:

   # RESTORE_ON_START:
   # Do you want to restore your mixer settings?  If not, your cards will be
   # muted.
   # no - Do not restore state
   # yes - Restore state
   
   RESTORE_ON_START="yes"
   
   # SAVE_ON_STOP:
   # Do you want to save changes made to your mixer volumes when alsasound
   # stops? 
   # no - Do not save state
   # yes - Save state
   
   SAVE_ON_STOP="yes"
