[SOLVED]Recording audio with Xvidcap

I want to record the sound my sound card is producing whilst I'm recoding using Xvidcap.
I've tried lots of devices, which one am I supposed to use?

/dev/snd:

controlC0  hwC0D0  pcmC0D0c  pcmC0D1c  pcmC0D2p  pcmC1D0c  timer
controlC1  hwC0D2  pcmC0D0p  pcmC0D2c  pcmC0D3p  seq

/dev

adsp     audio1  dsp1  midiC0D1  mixer     sequencer2
amidi    dmmidi  midi  midiC0D2  mixer1

There is so many to choose from!
Sound devices:

Audigy 4
USB Webcam (Logitech Quickcam)

I want to record the audio that is being played on the Audigy 4 (not a microphone)

Is there any other information I should provide?

Re: [SOLVED]Recording audio with Xvidcap

Got it, I had to change my alsa settings with my sound manager in gnome. Weird thing happened though, I would make the change, close it, re-open it and see that my old values were still there.
It explains how I never got it to work, I had to unlink them, then move them manually.
I had to raise the "PCM" under "Recording" which makes perfect sense, I just thought it was wrong because of how the values went back as soon as I closed it. tongue

That was a strange one...


Thanks!
