Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Today, I got a bit curious, and wanted to get some sound from a computer |
| 4 |
which does not have any speakers at the moment. Mostly for fun, I |
| 5 |
thought about using arecord and then listening to the file. |
| 6 |
|

I decided to have a look around the mixer, with no luck. I remember |
| 8 |
alsamixer showing an option to use the PCM mixer as a capture device, |
| 9 |
but this was with other, older cards (possibly an ESS Maestro or a |
| 10 |
Creative Enqsonic). Now, for this "Intel HDA" card, I don't see an |
| 11 |
option to select the card's own output as the input stream. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
From what I see, I'd simply assume this means the new card does not have |
| 14 |
support for this in the hardware mixer, but I wonder whether I'm missing |
| 15 |
something obvious. The card is listed, in lspci, as |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation MCP72XE/MCP72P/MCP78U/MCP78S High |
| 18 |
Definition Audio (rev a1) |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
And alsamixer lists it as |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Card: HDA NVidia |
| 23 |
Chip: Realtek ALC887 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Any hints? |
