not able to record and play using alsa

[prathameshghane]

Hi,

We are getting our hands on imx6-SABRELITE development board.

We recorded sound file plugging in the speakerphone with microphone in one of the AV slots.

We issued the following Alsa command for recording sound file.

arecord -d 10 -f s16 -c 2 -D plughw:0,0 input.wav

But, we are not able to playback the recorded file using the following command:

aplay -D plughw:0,0 input.wav

What could be the problem?

How can we check whether our ALSA is configured properly.

Regards,

Prathamesh

Hi,

What is a output of alsa_aplay -l and alsa_arecord -l?

Does your default sound card supports playback and recording? Than only your above command will work, otherwise you need to change "-D plughw:0,0".

Thanks

Hi Saurabh,

alsa_aplay and alsa_arecord are not available in the file system I am using.

But, I have aplay and arecord.

I issued aplay -l and arecord -l commands, following is the output.

-sh-4.1# aplay -l
