Hello there, I am having an issue recording with a Griffin iMic (using arecord), that issue being it doesn't work at all. Here is my sound setup:
**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** card 0: rev50 [VIA 82C686A/B rev50], device 0: VIA 82C686A/B rev50 [VIA 82C686A/B rev50] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 arecord: device_list:201: control open (1): No such file or directory **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** card 2: system [iMic USB audio system], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Here is my command (I understand this isn't writing to a file, I've just been using it to see if the mic is responding on the screen): # arecord -Dpd -fcd -v RIFF$ÿÿWAVEfmt D¬±dataÿÿRecording WAVE 'stdout' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz,Stereo Hardware PCM card 2 'iMic USB audio system' device 0 subdevice 0 Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : RW_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 2 rate : 44100 exact rate : 44100 (44100/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 16384 period_size : 5513 period_time : 125011 tick_time : 1000 tstamp_mode : NONE period_step : 1 sleep_min : 0 avail_min : 5513 xfer_align : 5513 start_threshold : 1 stop_threshold : 16384 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 1073741824 arecord: pcm_read:1164: read error: Inappropriate ioctl for device I have been unable to track down the true meaning of this command, but it is consistant no matter how I tweak the settings. If I use arecord with my onboard sound (capture device on card 0) it works just fine. Audio playback through the iMic also works fine. Any idea what the problem might be? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
