Audio capture (recording) from sound card doesn't work
I have a Asus Xonar DS sound card that uses CMI8788 chip, AV200 kernel driver and snd-virtuoso kernel module. The card is recognised on installation (i686) and there are no issues with the sound output.
This is a new installation to try to fix the (lack of) recording problem. I know the card can be used to capture sound being played from a web browser, Youtube and internet radio, as I previously had it working with audacity, gnome-recorder and mhwaveedit, but some months ago, after an upgrade it stopped working.
Alsamixer shows the card as AV200 and I have toggled all the capture options and raised levels to no avail.
The card is not broken as the capture works fine on Kubuntu and even Win7. I have tried pasting asound.state from Kubuntu but there was no diference.
Does anybody know a good troubleshooting guide that deals with the capture side, not output.
"volume: can't open /dev/mixer " is for the users who use OSS so there; you should find out what uses OSS and change it if it is possible and not solely on oss.
and the error I am having is because I defined the specific software to hwd:0,0. so what i should do is to check my softwares and set the audio output to "default"
So in another word use you sound card and in output option of your sound card choose "default over hwd:0,0"

Creative WaveStudio won't record from sound card anym
So I had this sweet system going, where I'd play something, and record it at the same time using Creative WaveStudio. It worked great for converting ogg to mp3 and suchnot. The problem started when I opened a file, and zoomed in on a section to edit it. When I tried to record something again, nothing. Total silence. I've changed all the settings, done everything I could think of, and still no luck. Pressing the Record button in WaveStudio records total silence when my Audigy Soundblaster is playing other stuff. What can I do to fix it's I will do ANYTHING, even update, but can't find any updates I can purchase.

Check your Control Panel - Sound and Audio Devices. Under Audio tab, ensure that Audigy sound card is selected as the recording sound card.
Have you also try uninstall and reinstall the WaveStudio?

HP Probook 4520s: sound card doesn't work (no sound, red mute button)
Нello!
I have an issue with my HP Probook 4520s. Its internal speakers and microphone doesn't work. I've tried to install and reinstall drivers from here, tried to rollback driver to older version but I always have the same result: installed the IDT sound codec, and after a restart, the mute button turned red and I cannot switch it.
Soundcard device ID: HDAUDIO\FUNK_01&VEN_111&DEV_7605
OS: Windows 7 Professional x86
How can I fix it?Hi, just registered to post my solution. I got HP ProBook 4330s in for repair. Problem: some sticky liquid spilled all over and no sound. Also discovered that no microphone as well, but webcam did work just fine.
What I tried:
1) Installed fresh Win 7 Ultimate 32-bit and all official drivers (audio driver did not want to install), still no sound. Sound icon shows red cross. Message: No audio output device installed.
1) Installed the newest version of BIOS, in my case F.40, still no sound.
2) Pluged in headphones, still no sound.
3) Took apart, unpluged and firmly inserted every possbile cable, still no sound.
4) Found in BIOS everything that relates to Audio. Made sure Audio device is enable, still no sound.
5) Install XP and installed XP sound driver, still no sound. In fact, that driver did not install correctly, showed some kind of error.
What did work, in consecutive order:
1) Took apart again and took out the coin battery that retains the BIOS data, date, clock etc.
2) Put everything back together, switched on, entered the correct date in BIOS settings, and started Win 7 Ultimate. Still no sound. But I noticed that Win 7 Ultimate has found some devices and was installing drivers for it. Though did not check exactly which ones.
3) If I could not get the sound working I was determined to buy some speakers with USB connection. Then, I remembered that I already had a set of speakers for another laptop. These speakers had USB connection to draw power from and a grean standard headphone connection/plug to draw audio signal. I plugged in these speakers into HP 4330s and the sound started coming from these external speakers. The sound icon next to the clock in bottom right corner switched to normal mode and I could control volume with my mouse. Then I unpluged external USB speakers and the sound started coming from the HP's built in speakers.
Checked with Device Manager that correct sound drivers are installed and microhpone appeared to be installed as well. Though did not check with Skype if microhpone was working.
I was soooo happy!!! I struggled with this problem for three long days, searched many forums (none gave solution), tried everything with drivers, took apart the laptop some three or four times (now I learned to do it with my eyes closed, so to speak).
I started to think that taking out the BIOS/date coin battery did the trick. There must be some glitch in BIOS to motherboard connection in these HP ProBook laptops, and all BIOS settings need to be reset.
I'll be happy if this helps someone. -

Can JMF capture audio from sound card?
I want to know if JMF can capture sound/audio from the sound card. Until now we have been capturing audio from microphone. but is there any possibility of capturing audio from sound card using JMF.
The audio captured from the sound card is to be streamed using JMF/RTP API.Dear seniors,
i have tried to display my audio file as a graph as
x axis being the Time and the y axis beeing the frequency/pitch.
look at this post, i have mentioned all here...
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3073027�
is it possible to display as i desired?
wht the audio stream has? is it frequency or pitch?...
pls do give me some tips on that...
thanx in advance

[SOLVED] Audio dropouts with USB sound card
Hi! Recently I bought an external USB sound card (Music Fidelity V-DAC). If I plug in the USB cable the sound device is recognized by Phonon in KDE4 (kdemod).
If I play an audio file in Amarok (or VLC) the audio is indeed redirected to the USB sound card and played correctly. However, if I use my USB mouse, or USB keyboard dropouts are occurring in the audio signal. It seems that other USB devices are interfering with my USB sound card.
More details:
Arch Linux with kernel 2.6.33 and kdemod 4. Phonon backend is Xine. I also tried gstreamer, but this crashes Amarok/
$ cat /proc/asound/cards

I also tried an Ubuntu (9.10) live CD. Using ALSA or Pulseaudio a clean audio signal without dropouts is produced.
I wonder if someone can help me with this problem, or point me to more information. Thanks!
Last edited by boomerang (2010-04-25 17:47:15)Thanks for your suggestion. I added the following line to my /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf file:
options snd-usb-audio enable_msi=1
After a reboot the problem still persists. I also tried another suggestion from this forum:
options snd-usb-audio nrpacks=1
This doesn't work either. I tried to change settings in /etc/security/limits.conf, which looks like this:
@audio - rtprio 99
@audio - nice -10
@audio - memlock 250000
The USB sound card doesn't share a IRQ with another USB devices, as can be seen here:

Audio capture recording .mov - .m4a
I accidentally saved an audio capture recording with QT without switching it to save as audio. It's now a .mov (saved as movie) instead of .m4a. How do I convert from the .mov to .m4a? Also, is there any way to make it save as audio (.m4a) by default?
Ah, yes, that works! Thank you.
A follow-up question: When audio capture is stopped, how can the client program find out when all the audio data has been written to a file on the server. The client needs to know this to perform subsequent operations on the audio file. -
Satellite A110-195 PSAB0E - sound card has stopped working
Hello,
My sound card has stopped working it was working fine but suddenly the sound quality started to faint and finally it stopped working i have tried the following methods:
Realtek is default audio
Control Panel/ Sound & Audio Devices/ Audio tab/ Sound Playback click on down arrow and check that the correct audio is selected. Typically the problem will be they something like "modem line 0 playback" might have been substituted for the proper audio device.( Didn't Worked)
Chipset Utility - install ( Did'n't Worked Aswell)
Start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Component Services / a separate window will open in left pane click Services(Local) from the tree / Scroll down to Windows Audio service / if the service is Disabled or Manual right click > select Properties > under Startup Type change to Automatic > click Apply / click Start > OK Reboot. (Worked) But First The Quality Was Not As It Was Before And Then Sound Card Stopped Working Again.
Try a System File Check
go to Run - type "sfc /scannow" No Success.
I have installed windows again but no success. :(
Here Is The Detailed Model No. Satellite A110-195

Windows XP Home Edition SP2No It Appears In Device Manager And In Control Panel.
This Method Worked But The Sound Level Was Not As Good As it Used To Be:

P20-552: 2GB SD card doesn't work.
I have a P20-552 (PSP26E-025E9-S4) which is about 18 months old. I recently bought a Canon digital camera (IxUS 750) with a 2GB Sandisk Ultra II SD card and the combination is working well. Although I can transfer images from the camera to my Toshiba portable using an USB cable, sometimes I would like to use the SD slot on the portable but there seems to be a problem: seconds after pressing home the SD card in the slot I get the message "Disk is not formatted - Do you want to format it now?". I reply OK but then I get the message "The disk in drive E cannot be formatted"
The card continues to work perfectly well in both my camera and in my iPaq PocketPC. The SD card slot in the Toshiba will work quite happily with the Sandisk 256MB SD card that is usually in my PDA.
Anybody has any idea why the 2GB card doesn't work in the Toshiba? Is it a question of updating a driver - I did look the other day but I couldn't find anything that to me seemed appropriate but I might well have overlooked something..
I am running XP Home (SP2) and have fully automatic updates ON. I have Norton Virus and Zone Alarm running and am not experiencing any problems with any other software/applications - at least, no problem since someone suggested vacuuming my overheating laptop a few weeks ago ;-)
Thanks, Brian.It seems that the unit doesnt support this card.
Check your user manual. There you will find a information that this unit supports only the following SD card sizes: 8/16/32/64/128/256 and 512 MB
According to this document the 2 GB are to high. -
Ethernet card doesn't work with new arch install?
Hi guys,
so this is kinda my first post, not that I'm new to arch i just never had an issue i couldn't figure out on my own... But i love arch i have been using it for about a year now and have had no serious problems except for this. I have had arch running on an older dell vostro 200 desktop before i reinstalled with a vary similar issue except that the fix i came up with doesn't work anymore. I will tell you about the first issue first because i ALMOST posted on here about it originally but i figured out a way to make it work even though it was a hassle.
After cold/rebooting my computer the network card doesn't work at all. lspci reported that the kernel module e1000e was the correct one (i have verified this) and that the kernel has loaded it, i verified that with dmesg but still it wouldn't work. After much much anguish and hairpulling, I realized that it had to have something to do with the module so i tried forcing it to reload with rmmod e1000e and modprobe e1000e and it still wouldn't work until i physically unpluged the ethernet cord and pluged it back in until the light on the NIC turned on. After that everything works as normal i could even unplug and plug it back in with no problems. So eventually i wrote a script that did this for me (except for the uplugging and plugging part) and i used that when i cold/rebooted.
But now i have the exact same issue after reinstalling arch to the T except for the fact that the (crazy) fix i came up with doesn't work now. I used my "fix" after booting from the arch cd and it worked just like it always has. And now after rebooting into my fresh system the fix doesn't work anymore. So now i'm back where i was to begin with but i have no idea what to try next. I didn't do anything particularly different during installation except i added a udev rule for the e1000e module just to see if somehow that would fix the problem... it didnt and i have since deleted that (to see if it was the problem). The only other thing that is different is the root and home are now btrfs partitions instead of ext4.
I have booted several other live cds and dvds (diferent distros) including arch derivatives such as manjaro and they all worked just fine, using the same kernel module (e1000e). I'm not sure what that could mean but i know that it means there is a fix for this some way or another. I am going to hook up a wifi adapter and connect that computer to the internet to put some more information up if it's needed (asked for) but for now lspci -vnn | grep -i -A 10 net reports

Is it possible to get iPhone audio (telephone calls) from Lightning connection? Music works, but calls switch to internal or extenral speakers, not lightning (for e.g. docking station, car...)!
I want to get the audio out of the lightning connection (the way you get audio when you connect it to a dock). It works properly with music, but when making a telephone call, it switches to the internal speraker. You can change to the external spekers, but you cannot select another audio out. It's also possible to get the telephone audio from the analogue connection, but that's not what I want. I want telephone audio from lightning...
Would be so great if anybody has an ideaI must also say that the second update ruined my Lumia's battery life.
With the first (out-of-the-box) update the phone usually had 30 percent of battery after a quite hard day (e.g. more than an hour of talking via bluetooth handsfree, more than two hours of listening to the music via bluetooth, more than an hour of browsing via wifi, and reading hundreds of e-mails via two mail accounts). I never managed to discharge it after one day (e.g. 14-16 hours) of continous use, no matter how much I talked, listened and browsed.
Now, with the secod update, it discharges to 20% after 12 hours of laying still almost without use (30 mins of music, less than 15 mins of talking and nothing more), and discharges completely with the usage pattern described above.
Did the second update contain some Android code? -
