Hi I have been having problems recording audio on my laptop. Need help from this list...
My laptop has a Intel HDA audio chip (module: snd_hda_intel.ko ) . I have been trying to record audio fed via the aux input and mic without much success. The recorded wave is blank (or nothing is recorded) The audio playback works fine, I am sure my mixer settings are fine, since I can hear the aux-input sound on the headphone output on the laptop. BTW, I tried recording on WinXP on the same machine, works fine, except that the stupid Microsoft application stops after 60sec (sound recorder in Accessories), so my hardware and connections etc are definitely OK. I have tried audacity, krec, krecord, sound-recorder and vsound without any success. I noticed that /dev/dsp and /dev/audio are probably not the right devices to capture audio from since recording from these does not results in a blank wav file (no audio) So, my question is, what is the right device to record from? I scanned /dev/ and found the following devices, so somehow, audio goes through devices in /dev/snd/* but /dev/snd/pcmC0D0c (the "capture" device) does not work.
