Re: [Alsa-user] Re: [Jackit-devel] how do i connect ALSA outputs to ALSA inputs?

[<Fri...@gm...>]

Hi Patrick,

thanks for your answer. I looked at the ALSA docs but I don't understand
what to do . It seems I've got to define a slave PCM where I can copy the audio
data to -- that's ok. But looking at the definition of slave pcms I think I
have to set a hardware pcm as *output* there. But I just want to select the
(copy)device I've copied the audio data to as an *input* device of another
application. Would this be possible somehow?

Regards,

copy pcm definition from alsa-doc

pcm.name {
        type copy               # Copy PCM
        slave STR               # Slave name
        # or
        slave {                 # Slave definition
                pcm STR         # Slave PCM name
                # or
                pcm { }         # Slave PCM definition
        }
}
