Linux Mint - how to record internet sound on Audacity
« on: Sat, 18 January 2025, 17:53:07 »
I asked this a couple of years ago the last time I did a major system update, but I can't find it again.

After quite a bit of searching, I get suggestions but they simply don't work. For example, why is "What U Hear" simply not there in any of the recording menus or drop-down?

As I remember, ALSA is an acceptable host (the only one I find) but for Playback and/or Recording Device there are precious few choices and although "pulse" is supposed to be adequate, it isn't.

As always, I appreciate your help.
