Hi,

I am trying to use the pulseaudio mix channel as input for liquidsoap.

Do you know how I can find out the names of available pulseaudio devices?
I played around with the names I see at audacity but unfortunately I did not 
succeed.

e.g. the following line will not work, since 'mix' is not the right device name.

liquidsoap 'output.file(%mp3, "/tmp/test.mp3" ,input.pulseaudio(device="mix") )'

Background:

As you might remember we always wanted to have some dynamic scheduler to start 
a show (a single audio file) at a certain date & time.
I have written now a small scheduler which frequently scans all subdirectories 
below a storage /mnt/storage/ where start date and time is mapped to the path 
by convention.
e.g. if file /mnt/storage/2011/09/27/20-00/show.mp3 exists, show.mp3 will be 
started at 2011-09-27T20:00:00.
Starting a file means starting a cvlc for playout. (At our studio we put the 
playout audio directly on the sound mixer).

Directories are automatically created from our program schedule, so user just 
has to drop a file in the right folder.
To delete or move a show, user can still delete or move the file.
The scheduler takes care of file changes, even for shows that are in the past 
(like a show is inserted to be started a half hour before now).
This works good for now and has a very small cpu and memory footprint.

Now I would like to build a continous stream with help of liquidsoap to make 
the scheduler useful for other people, too.

Best regards, Peter
