command line record audio/video webcam

[johannesgj]

i know there is probably someone answered this allready but i have been searching and didnt find it so here goes my question any ways.

i need to get the following syntax to record audio also. right now it doesent and i really dont know why.

Code: Select all

C:\Programs...\vlc.exe dshow:// --sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=1024,fps=30,width=320,acodec=mp2a,ab=128,scale=1,channels=2,deinterlace,audio-sync}:duplicate{dst=standard{access=file,mux=ps,dst="C:\Output.mpg"},dst=display{}} --extraintf=logger -vvv

its a sampled code put together of different bits found on the web.

i dont know why but it doesent add sound.
another thing is that i dont know what to parse the command when i want the recorded video finnished

thanks in advance!

Can you see your audio device in Media -> Open Capture Device... ?

[johannesgj]

yes it shows fine.
but there is one thing though. to get audio when normally capturing i need to press options on the audio and make it the mic in to get sound

[VLC_help]

press options on the audio and make it the mic in to get sound

that cannot be automated via scripting.

[johannesgj]

ok. hmmm
then what can i do to make the mic the default setting?
and then use my script to just capture a video with sound

thnx for reps

[VLC_help]

then what can i do to make the mic the default setting?

Hack some .DLL since the dialog comes from driver. Or build some sort of macro for change.

[johannesgj]

sorry if im totally newbie.
but how do i hack some dll?

SOLVED !!!
hurray
i figured out what i needed was to describe the adev used see here:

Code: Select all

C:\Programmer\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe dshow:// [b]:dshow-adev="Conexant HD Audio input"[/b] --sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=1024,fps=30,width=320,acodec=mp2a,ab=128,scale=1,channels=2,deinterlace,audio-sync}:duplicate{dst=standard{access=file,mux=ps,dst="C:\Output.mpg"},dst=display{}} --extraintf=logger -vvv

that was what saved me. i needed to go from the standard input to the conexant input and that apparantly is done with the adev.

again hurray!!!
vlc is major lazor

sorry i made a mistake in the code before here is the final example:

C:\Programmer\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe dshow:// :dshow-adev="Conexant HD Audio input" --sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=1024,fps=30,width=320,acodec=mp2a,ab=128,scale=1,channels=2,deinterlace,audio-sync}:duplicate{dst=standard{access=file,mux=ps,dst="C:\Output.mpg"},dst=display{}} --extraintf=logger -vvv
