Capture screen and audio from dshow

Postby Zalon » 14 Jun 2008 13:21

Hello, i've been going crasy trying almost everything. I want to capture my screen and audio, this is what i do:

vlc screen:// --input-slave=dshow:// :dshow-adev="My sound device"

This gives me the screen capture and an audio track, but no audio. If i do it reversed i'll get the audio and a video track, but no video.

Can't the two be used together?

Also, i've only been able to use an mp3 as input-slave, streams doesnt work either, only files.

Yes i have tried with old builds, stable builds, nightly builds, couldnt get it to work in any version on 4 different pc's, in both windows and linux. Anyone ever done that? I mean it makes sense to record sound when you record you desktop, if you are doing a tutorial etc.

I am not sure anyone has already done that.
However that would be cool.

I can confirm this behavior. Could any developer please take a look to it or explain how to get it work?

Thank you very much!

AFAIK it (ds sound + screen image) isn't possible ATM.

Thank you for your reply!

Is it possible to capture screen image (screen://) together with sound in another way?

Are there any plans to implement such a feature in future versions?

Same time image and sound capturing from different methods isn't possible without slave-input. I don't know what causes the limitation, is it slave-input or something else, so I can't guess if this will be fixed in future.

What is slave-input? I am trying to capture the screen as well as the sound output.
