Hi, I can't record my voice on skype and SimpleScreenRecorder. What should i do to fix this issue?
Offline
Talk louder. Plug in a microphone...

It's a laptop man. On SimpleScreenRecorder I can record the system sound.
Backed: PulseAudio

When I switch to

I can't record my voice.

Do these work in other applications? What kind of microphone do you have? Where is it plugged in exactly?

Please read my link and ammend the post with code tags as requested.
This might be some wrong detection/inference logic, the Mic control is muted, capture is not
amixer -c0 set 'Mic',0 100%,100%
does that help?

Might also require internal/mic boost or
Talk louder.

Nothing ever changes, I have the same results to Skype, SimpleScreenRecorder and Guvcview. Couple of months ago all worked in harmony.

If you want this to have any chance to continue, edit your posts and properly use code tags, as V1del asked you twice already.
Offline
@seth Is it getiing better now? Do you want to change them all? I don't know how to include all the terminal output in codetags.

Yes.
Every shell IO and file contents should be in a code box to keep the forum page size limited (scrollable) and the text more readable.
Offline
Okay, I didn't know that.
Offline
Putting every line into an isolated code block doesn't really help…
Offline
You can put the entire block of output into code tags
Try increasing the volumes involved here
amixer -c0 set 'Mic',0 on,on
pactl set-source-volume alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo 100%,100%
Do you get any volume feedback checking/speaking in e.g. pavucontrol?

Grr i hate these slight format differences ... but this does remind me, most mics are not actually stereo and there can be weird bugs if the system thinks it is anyway
pactl set-source-volume alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo 100% 0
and check/try again, if it didn't work swap the channel you mute, so "0 100%". Also more generally to test whether anything works at all
arecord -Dhw:0 test.wav
can you record anything with that?
Last edited by V1del (2022-12-09 14:57:40)

Stop pulseaudio, run alsamixer to activate and ramp up the mic and both mic boosters (F4 to control the input devices)
Then run
arecord -f cd > test.wav
, yell into your microphone, ctrl+c to stop the recording and "mpv test.wav" to see whether it has sound.
We need to take PA and skype out of the equation.
One, because it's the primary way to break your audio and the other because we don't know what it does to the mic settings.
And fix post #5.
Edit: grrr as well

Not only have you ignored numerous requests to fix post five, but you continue to use code tags without actually putting them around the code. What's the limitation? You do realize that code tags can (and should) encompass more than one line, right?
While code tags around commands and their output is best, if given the option of having them only around the command or only around the output, having them around the output would be preferable - but you are doing the opposite.

LoL... No, you misunderstood Trilby netiquette suggestion!
Please, when you write a Post and there's something realted to Terminal Output(s) (eg.: Bash output) use the [ code ] [ / code ] tags without spaces!

Does the test.wav you should've gotten contain audio? Did you try speaking while running it? "Worked some months ago" when, which kernel? Test the LTS kernel?
Offline
Stable linux kernel 6.0.10 - Vanilla Linux kernel and modules, with a few patches applied.
Yes the test.wav contained audio, but system audio. Not of my voice.
When I decided to switch to the LTS Kernel, I'll post to you again. Okay?
Last edited by visious5d (2022-12-09 15:48:54)

Yes that's now but which kernel did it last work on? Rerun the test.wav experiment but combine the commands
arecord -Dhw:0 -f cd test.wav
that should bypass pulse and should be using your mic. Also for good measure output of
sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*
the entire output in a single code tag combination this time please.

It can easily become.
I'll just point out that as long as I don't activate my mic boost, I can yell all I want, it's not loud enough.
