Thanks, I'm sure you are right, but...
I've spent the last 2 hours trying to find the name and format of the
audio device that vlc will accept, to no avail.
Sound Recorder works - with 'Master' as the only available input.
With arecord I can't find which device (or PCM?) to use. with 'pulse'
it takes all audio including the microphone and I can't switch it off.
I'm at a loss how to learn enough to be able to find such things out
for myself.
