I need to set the default input device to be the microphone on my webcam for when I skype, but it seems to keep resetting itself, so I keep going in and changing it.
I am right clicking the volume icon and going into Sound Prefs -> Input, and selecting the camera.
How do I stop it from forgetting this and resetting it?
No audio input device can be found in sound preference>input but in sound preference>hardware>it shows the input webcam recorder device.
When I use
Code:
alsamixer
onto terminal it shows this
and also i checked cable device and everything. And it was working till I last hour. I rebooted computer then there's some problem, I haven't change anything before or after rebooting.
On karmic the audio input device would constantly reset to muted. On lucid, it keeps resetting it to the microphone jack at the back of the computer (While I have a webcam up and running that it knows is what I use. How can I get it to remember my audio input? One more functionality issue till bingo. How can I give a window "Widget" status: I want it not to minimize when I hit ctrl alt D (Like conky and other widgets).

It's not a big deal but I would really rather let it be switched automatically like plug and play or something like that.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI use a Logitech USB headset with microphone at work for phone conferencing, and for some reason whenever I restart Ubuntu (and sometimes seemingly at random times), the settings for the audio input device revert to the defaults (the internal audio hardware).I can always reset it back to the USB headset by going to the sound configuration menu (Preferences -> Sound -> Input), but if any applications that use a microphone are already running, they will need to be restarted in order to make use of the newly configured input device.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on an embedded system, which is an USB MSC device that supports some vendor specific scsi commands. I am using FC10 laptop as USB host for testing, and it runs some small apps based on sg3. All has been well for ~ a week. The FC10 laptop is able to communicate with the device and retrieve data. Suddenly, starting from today, the laptop is not able to properly detect the device. When plugged-in, the MSC device is detected as input device (I thought). This is observed from "dmesg" output and changes in "/dev/input/".The device under development is running at full speed. When I connect to winXP, no problem. A windows file explorer pops up, showing the content of the drive.Also, the FC10 has no problem with other USB flash drive (high speed).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Kore Controller from Native Instruments [URL] using it as a sound card on Fedora 12. Its input knobs are supported by Linux, too, but they are pretty useless for me.It came out that these input knobs send mouse movements from time to time, letting my mouse pointer jumping to the upper left corner of the screen.
So I want to disable the knobs, i.e. I want X to not interpret these "knob actions" as mouse movements. What is the best way to achive this? Can I disable it somewhere in HAL configuration or do I have to modify xorg.conf? And how do I do this?Simply plugging out the Kore Controller is not an option for me because I use it as sound card.
I am trying to record a video clip, using my webcam, but sound synchronisation is always poor. I have used Cheese, UCView and VLC. One possible cause is explained in the reply to this question, but I am not an expert. In desperation, I now want to try ffmpeg. The ffmpeg documentation gives the following example
Code:
ffmpeg -f oss -i /dev/dsp -f video4linux2 -i /dev/video0 /tmp/out.mpg
My system has no /dev/dsp, but does have /dev/snd with these files
Code:
$ ls /dev/snd

In Linux, Is there a way to remember/change a path to a USB device? In my case, I need linux to remember that my USB serial adapter will stay on /dev/ttyUSB0, but when I unplug it and plug it back in, it switches to /dev/ttyUSB1. I'm using a debian-based distro(mint)

Then I checked the microphone and have set it properly and its working now. The details how i made my microphone working is at the following link: [url]

Sound is integrated Intel HD "82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller" (courtesy of lshw), and it did work before, it just seems to have appeared suddenly out of nowhere, I can't even tell when and whether it's connected to any updates or other configuration changes.
For those that use Virtualbox on their slackware host and have a windows (xp) guest running. I have tried various settings for sound (Alsa, PulseAudio), the AC97 drivers are installed in the Windows xp guest os, but there is no sound and there is an unknown audio device (in the windows device manager). If I remove the AC97 drivers and use the soundblaster16 drivers in the Vbox settings there is no unknown sound device, but there's still no sound. why I can't get sound working?

I just bought an M-Audio Keystation 49e off of craigslist and I'm at a bit of a loss on where to start to use it as an input device for muse or rosegarden.
Distro: Debian Lenny
Kernel: 2.6.26-2-686
Laptop: Compaq V5305WM
Everything seems setup, but I'm at a loss on how to use it in the applications. It doesn't have any sound synthesis abilities on the keyboard, it's just an input device. Without the keyboard I usually go this route:
jackd -R -d alsa &
timidity -Oj -iA &
rosegarden
And midi events output sounds and all that jazz. I'm wanting to input notes / record from the keyboard. But still output all sounds in the aforementioned manner. If I could get those to happen while I record that would help a bunch. Maybe it's just too late in the day for me to wrap my brain around it at the moment.

View 3 Replies View RelatedLong story short - on my laptop, touch pad is recognised as PS/2 mouse. Everything works (moving, clicking, dragging, vertical scroll). But I often accidental click the pad while typing.Synaptic driver recognises it as ALPS glide point it seems (synclient -m 1 gives me back only x,y difference for the gestures, but X,Y coordinates are always 0,0) - so then I get everything right including disabling mouse on keyboard input - but scrolling doesn't work So I came up with 2 possible ideas - which I don't know how to do/test:1. Perhaps there is a way to disable mouse input while typing without synaptics drivers?2. Create a dummy input device (mouse), and tie synaptics driver to it. Add another input device in xorg.conf to point to the real touch pad as PS/2. And make the synaptics disable "real mouse" by enabling GuestMouseOff option.

I am trying to record a video clip, using my webcam, but sound synchronisation is always poor. I have used Cheese, UCView and VLC. One possible cause is explained in the reply to this question, but I am not an expert. In desperation, I now want to try ffmpeg. The ffmpeg documentation gives the following example
Code:
ffmpeg -f oss -i /dev/dsp -f video4linux2 -i /dev/video0 /tmp/out.mpg
I want to use alsa, not oss, but need to know the alsa input device name (/dev/dsp is created by loading the oss modules). By running alsamixer, I have nutted out that /dev/snd/controlC0 refers to the HDA Intel sound card, ~controlC1 is my USB webcam and ~controlC29 is the microphone built in to my notebook, but these are control devices, not inputs.
[Code]...
However, that does not explain which device is the mic built in to the laptop: by my calculation, it should be pcmC0D1c, but there is no such device. In /proc/asound/card0/pcm0c/ I have directories for sub0 and sub1, which I am guessing relate to the mic jack and inbuilt mic respectively. Do two physical mics share one logical device somehow? I am starting to really confuse myself, if you haven't guessed that already.
I think my question boils down to "How do I record a video clip on Fedora 14 using ffmpeg?", but I am specifically interested in knowing how to specify each of the alsa sound input devices for my system.
I would like to watch a baseball game on TV, but listen to the radio broadcast.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI wanted to take an audio feed from a stereo amplifier into my HP Pavilion DV6 laptop, in order to digitally record some old vinyl.
In the Sound Preferences tab, I seemed to be able to record easily from the internal mic, but there seemed to be no easy way to switch the preferences to enable recording from the Line In socket on the laptop.
We tried muting the mic, this only caused the system to record nothing. We also tried all the various available options in "the Hardware Profiles" tab, "Settings for the available device", but no the laptop seemed to be getting no "line in" input with whatever profile we tried.
On Mac, it was as simple as switching the input sound preferences from "internal mic" to "line in".
I am attempting to connect a bluetooth headset to a Telex Intercom System. I can connect my bluetooth headset to Ubuntu and use the microphone and the speaker perfectly. There are no problems with the Line-In or the Line-Out.

For some reason on any application that uses sound, but doesn't allow me to specify the input/output audio devices I don't get anything. I want all audio to go to my USB Headset, and not the onboard soundcard. To start off with, here's alsamixer: Here's a screenshot from Mumble (voice chat) that shows that I've set the USB headset device in there, and it works 100% fine on Mumble.

As you can see from the alsa-base.conf above I've tried specifying snd_usb_audio as the default device, but it's not working.
I'm looking for a a 1/4 inch input that is supported for recording with Ardour.
