I want to use vlc to record from a vcr. I have managed to get the
connection working using v4l with /dev/video1. I fail to connect to the
sound card Part of the system using vlc that by default shows the use of
alsa. Under sound in preferences the sound connection shows up and I
can select it.
The problem as I see it is vlc's connection to the alsa mixer. does
anyone know what the port is called or how to configure vlc to do so, so
I can enter the proper information on the audio input window so they
will talk to each other. When I use the sound recorder the sound mixer
shows the output application as an output, but I have yet to be able to
connect to the application using vlc, and the documentation has little
info as to what I am trying to do.
