Ubuntu :: Gtk-recordMyDesktop - Record Digital Sounds - Hearing Through The Speakers And Not My Microphone
Jun 27, 2010
Anyway, being a Windows user before this, I enjoyed recording videos of my computer and the programs on it, but when I switched to Ubuntu 10.04, I kinda hit some tracks.
I installed gtk-recordMyDesktop and permanently killed PulseAudio and installed GNOME ALSA Mixer.
What my problem is is that I want gtk to record digital sounds, you know, what I'm hearing through the speakers, and not my microphone.

I'm trying to record a video with sound through FFmpeg, and while it records the system sounds just fine, it doesn't record the microphone (in fact, it crashes on doing so!). The strange thing is that if I use arecord, it works just perfectly, but through ffmpeg it crashes.This is the command that I use to launch FFmpeg:
Code:
/usr/bin/ffmpeg
-f x11grab
[code]....

I've been playing around with my settings for ages now but I cant get GTK-recordmydesktop to record anything other than my mic. Ideally I need the mic and the computer sounds to be recorded, any ideas how this can be done? I've googled around but nothing really helpful comes up. Also, if you need my hardware info, just tell me the command and i'll post the results.

I've been watching some tutorials, which, I am told, were made with recordmydesktop. It looks as if it would be useful, but I don't have a microphone.
I am running Fedora 14 on a Dell Precision workstation. I was able to install recordmydesktop without difficulty. Does anyone have any microphones to recomened?
I am happy to connect it to the mic port in back or to use a USB microphone. What might be the advantages and disadvantages of each. Which would be easiest to setup on my machine?

I want to do two different things in gtk-recordmydesktop. 1, record directly from the soundcard (so no distortion from speakers or microphone).
2, record from a usb microphone.I can do (1) just using sound recorder already, but of course no video.
As far as (2) is concerned, I set advanced->sound to pulse, DEFAULT, or hw:0,0 or hw:x,y (x and y are any combinations of 0, 1, or 2). (all the hw combinations cause gtk-recordmydesktop to crash)
I have a choice between the motherboard (STAC92xx) and the CMI8738 PCI card. (only the latter sees the usb microphone for some reason). The CMI8738 shows up as card 0 in /proc/asound.
Any idea of where I can find what numbers to put in gtk-recordmydesktop->advanced->sound? I am feeling rather stupid, but I couldn't make much sense of what I have found on google.Plus. I am using fedora core 10 but with a 2.6.29 kernel and I am only running pulseaudio.Jack looks complicated, but is that the only way to go.

I am currently trying to start doing some screen casting and having a problem with audio recording in gtk-recordmydesktop. The problem is that I need to record both; my computers audio card output, and my mic input at the same time. As of now I am able to record one or the other.

My computer is making clicking sounds that apparently come from the speakers. When I turn down the volume they get softer and then go away. They have no pattern that I have been able to recognize. There will be one or two, then quiet, then seven or eight in quick succession, etc. I run Hardy Heron on a 4 year old Dell Inspiron B120 laptop.

I've been running wubi for about 2 weeks now, and am completely new to all this. Everything was running fine, until yesterday when I restarted my laptop and the sound died. It had been working fine before, but now no sound comes out of the inbuilt speakers. However, the sound works perfectly through my headphones. Am running 11.04 on an Inspiron 1525, I don't know what other information you need, so if you ask me I'll try and find it. Also the sound works fine in Windows.

I'm trying to get my Audigy 2 Value to output digital but when I try to use the iec958 interface it outputs to the front speakers analog outputs, ie not the digital io socket.
I can get 5.1 surround by using the plug:surround51 device.
Have gone though other guides trying to fix the problem but no luck. how to get the digital stuff working. I have included some outputs.

I need to be able to schedule and automate the recording process, to record DV with audio directly to the hard drive. Can anyone tell me if this is possible with linux? Can anyone suggest hardware/applications that would work to accomplish this? This is not for security purposes. This is to record classes that will be made available online.

I just installed Lucid Lynx on a Thinkpad X60 last night in order to wring every last drop of utility out of it, and so my wife might have a notebook that she can use for Skype. I couldn't get the built-in microphone to pick anything up, but figured it didn't matter because I planned to use the one with the Creative Labs VF0400 camera. The problem is, using both Skype's test call, as well as the Sound Recorder program, the sampling rate may be out of whack because playback of anything recorded with the microphone sounds like the chipmunks (as in Alvin, Simon, Theodore) -- it sounds as though the playback has been sped up, though the Skype test call operator sounds just fine. If I can't get the microphone working, then that pretty much kills what I was going to use this computer for.

I am not sure if this is the correct place to post this, so feel free to move it around (mods) I have a Nokia 2700, the full specs of which are available here - [URL].. And it looks somewhat like this >
So the idea here is, I have connected it up in every possible way to my laptop through bluetooth. I have found a way to stream music playing on the phone through my laptop speakers. What I want to be able to do is to be able to stream music playing on my laptop (all sounds through the soundcard) via bluetooth (perhaps?) from my mobile phone speakers..

I think I messed up my speaker and microphone drivers... They don't show up in hardware sound preferences so I really don't know what to do.

I want to create a small simple application that will let me change the Output of the Sounds option to go from speakers to my headphones. I can do this easily enough through System --> Preferences --> Sound, but I'd like to create a GUI front end for me to do this. This is more as a learning exercise than anything else.What is the best language for me to build the windows to do this? Also, how do I find the commands to let me toggle the sound settings? Where are they documented? I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.

I have gotten my microphone working, this was an issue for a long time.
Now I can hear myself through my headphones so I know the computer is "hearing" it.
But... I still show "No Input Devices Available" in my Pulse Audio volume control so I'm still not able to record... which of course is my whole point.

Alright, just installed maverick, got the sound to work great on the 7.1 with pulseaudio. works great in movies, and everything else just wonderfully. the only thing i am stumped by is how to get the sound to loop from my digital input on my soundcard to my analog speakers also on the same soundcard. i know the sound feed works on the input as the makeshift VU meter/bar on my digital input in the sound preferences moves, but i can't get the sound to actually come through on my speakers.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 on an Asus F3JC laptop with an integrated webcam and microphone. The webcam is a
Code:
user@ubuntu:~$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 05e1:0501 Syntek Semiconductor Co., Ltd DC-1125 WebCam
and it works. If i tap on the microphone or if I blow on it, I hear noises but after I record something with gnome-sound-recorder I don't hear any sound! The same with Skype, for example.
On Xp (other hd partition) it works.
The audio device on the laptop is a
Code:
user@ubuntu:~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC660 Analog [ALC660 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
[Code]....
If I open the "sound preferences tool" the device for sound input is "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" and even if I tune the volume of the microphone I don't see any movement in the input level bar. I've also checked alsamixer and the digital volum in the capture interface is set at the maximum.

I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 I am using 10.10 I am using headphone/microphone headset this did work for me with 10.04 never a problem, I have tried to use these to fix problem - audacity/sound recorder/pulse audio volume control/pulse audio device chooser/ (the more I use 10.10 the more I love it its been a learning curve I am sure this is just another one of them for me..)
Re: Microphone not working after upgrade to Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick My hardware profile is Duplex. When I click on the input tab the signal measuring bar is always staying lit on the first section and does not move further. This means that the mic is not capturing sound. In 10.04.1 there was a dropdown menu in the input tab from which I could choose the default microphone and thus choose an option that works. In 10.10 there is no such thing. I kind of fixed it by adding "options snd-hda-intel model=3stack" in alsa-base.conf. Now I have the dropdown menu and my microphone works for now. The problem is that I did not have to do this in 10.04.1 ... options snd-hda-intel model=3stack sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf for mine it was mic 1 and it worked

I've had this problem on ubuntu before, and I remember that I had to install a program from synaptics package manager and change the noise removal settings. This worked on someone else's mono mic, and I'm wondering if anyone knows which program changes the system setting for noise cancellation.

i have a sony vaio vgn-n38z laptop with an external microphone which i'm trying to use with skype. the microphone (which works; i tried it on another computer) doesn't record anything, but when i speak in it, it actually plays through the speakers (kind of like karaoke).
so basically, i want it to stop playing through the speakers and start recording!
with lspci: my Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
with the command: head -n 1 /proc/asound/card0/codec*, i get:
Codec: Realtek ALC262

As described here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookAir2-1/Karmic) I've got Ubuntu 9.10 running on my Macbook Air 2,1 but the only things that don't work are the speaker and the built-in microphone. I can get sound using the line out though. I am mainly looking for a way to get my microphone working (I can live with sound only via line-out).

A bit of background: I have a single set of Logitech Z-5500s and a Xonar D2X on my main computer. I have one other system currently ( sometimes two ), set up in a loop using optical in/out. This system uses analog out to communicate to the Logitech Z-5500s and, when on Windows, feeds a high quality bluetooth headset's input out it's own optical out down the ring so that Dragon Naturally Speaking works on all the systems. ( Since you can't listen to music / play sound effects and use Dragon at the same time, I don't get an infinite loop / digital feedback effect which is REALLY neat to listen to sometime. )
It's a pretty complicated setup. My Windows 7 installation is down due to hard drive failure, so I fixed Grub up and hopped on to Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit edition. So! What I need to get my sound working again, sans the overcomplicated headset part, is a way for my Ubuntu system to play its digital input / SPDIF input on its analog output. Nothing more.
Googling gets me a bunch of stuff meant for music recording that often has high latency. I need this to be minimal latency and because my Ubuntu rig is meant as a CGI workstation and ONLY a CGI workstation installation, I need it to be something with minimal maintenance in updates and minimal resource usage.

I currently have pclinuxos 2007 (updated to kde4). I put on webinars, and like to record them using recordmydesktop. All is working fine by putting a splitter in my speaker out, and feeding it back into my line in. This only works when I have analog loopback not muted.My problem is that pclinuxos is now putting out there 2010 version, and there is no way I can see to un-mute the analog loopback. It does not show up as any options onkmix.... I am going to attach a couple pictures one with my old kmix, and one with the new 2010 version.My question is, how can I get back that analog loopback, or is there another way to get the sound to record from both my speaker and my mic?
