I had already unmuted everything before posting my question. With |
| 12 |
enough microphone boost, I have a hissing noise. I didn't know about |
| 13 |
alsasound being a daemon until today. With alsasound running, mencoder |
| 14 |
and ffmpeg and arecord now *THINK* that they are recording a sound |
| 15 |
channel. That's an "improvement", because they used to say "noaudio" |
| 16 |
before. But still nothing gets recorded. Here is a sample command I |
| 17 |
tried. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
arecord -f cd -t wav -c 2 -D plughw:0 foobar.wav |

Maybe I should go and buy an external microphone already. |
