Hi folks,

Attempting to do a screen capture (x11) including audio; say chrome is
playing a video clip and I want to capture a portion of the screen
along with the audio.

Quick search shows following example:

 ffmpeg -f x11grab -probesize 32M -thread_queue_size 32 -i :0 \
  -f sndio -thread_queue_size 32 -i snd/0 \
  -codec:v libx264rgb -crf 0 -preset ultrafast \
  -codec:a pcm_s16le \
  raw.mkv

Unfortunately, play back of raw.mkv file using ffplay, there is no
audible audio.

Also, this command captures the entire screen. I am only interested in
capturing a portion of the screen, so my modified command is:

ffmpeg -f x11grab -s:0 640x480 -framerate 25 -i :0.0+100+50 -f sndio
-i snd/0 -crf 0 -preset ultrafast out.mp4

With this, the capture is at offset 100+50 and a size of 640x480.
Still no audio (unsurprisingly).

Can someone give me a hint as to how to get audio to record as well?

Cheers,
--patrick
