[Mactel-linux-devel] recording from line in

[Daniel M. N. <dmn...@po...>]

Has anyone managed to record through an external microphone attached to
"line in"? 

I'm using a Macbook Pro, original version, and the 2.6.22.1 kernel with
the version 135 mactel-linux patches.  This lets me record from the
built-in microphone (using Capture set to 7 - about 50%, and Mux set to
3 - about 75%).  However, I haven't been able to find any combination of
mixer settings which shows anything other than very low level noise on
the "line in" port.  

Any suggestions?

Are you using Sound Recorder (gnome-sound-recorder) when you test 
record/playback?  If so theres a bug where you have to Save or Save As 
after you record before it will play it back.

Here's the bug track in Ubuntu:

hi Ben. i'm using /usr/bin/arecord to record, and /usr/bin/aplay to
play. i run both from the CLI.

Gabriel's post in the "Still no Microphone" thread might be good to
investigate. i'm going to this weekend.

hi Dan. you might've noticed the email i sent about 12 hours ago
asking pretty much the same question. i can record, but when i play it
back, nothing was recorded. let me know if you find a solution.

btw, do you know what the "Mux" input device is?
