How to set default ALSA capture device in Ubuntu 24.04?
by jferments from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6N3KS)
I am using Ubuntu 24.04 and trying to record live audio with ffmpeg. I am using the command
Code:ffmpeg -f alsa -i default [...]... and want it to route to the correct microphone. But right now, I can't figure out how to set what "default" points to.
"arecord -l" gives me the following info:
Code:card 1: C200 [Anker PowerConf C200], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]How do I set this device as default alsa capture/input device?
