Dear PulseAudio community,<br><br>My apologies if this is either a double post or simply a stupid question. As the subject line suggests I'm interested in recording something like a Skype conversation. I say something like a Skype conversation because I work with some similar voip teleconferencing programs other than Skype.<br><br>I've been looking in several places for some information. Hopefully I'm close to having a solution, but I'm not quite there.<br><br>pacat -r -d alsa_output.pci-0000_00_14.2.analog-stereo.monitor <br><br>I've used the above command to capture audio passing through my sound server. I've also added a virtual device in my /etc/alas/pulse-default.conf file. So I can also capture that audio with other programs such as Audacity. So I need to include my microphone to the recording. <br><br>I've found the following command, which doesn't work for me, to pass two streams:<br><br>pacat -r -d alsa_input.pci-0000_00_14.2.analog-stereo | pacat -p -d
                        
                alsa_output.pci-0000_00_14.2.analog-stereo.monitor<br><br>The above results in:<br><br>Stream error: No such entity<br>write() failed: Broken pipe<br><br>for me.<br><br>So, is there a way to combine my two devices? I'm assuming something like a pacmd script will do the trick, but I don't yet understand how the module-combine statements work. <br><br>Many Thanks.<br><br><br>                                            <br /><hr />Get a free e-mail account with Hotmail.
