A strange recording problem.

2004-12-10 Thread Donald L. Roberts
Hello,

I am attempting to assist a friend over the phone.  He has a bizarre problem 
which I have
not been able to solve and would appreciate some ideas from other listers.

He wants to record an audio stream.  So we went into the recording tab of the 
volume
control, unchecked the microphone, checked stereo mix, and adjusted the stereo 
mix volume
setting.

I am certain that we are in the recording tab and that the boxes are correctly 
checked.
Nevertheless, the recording is that of the microphone even though the mike is 
unchecked.

I encouraged him to unplug the mike; however, he said it wasn't practical to 
get to the
back of the computer, and he was uncertain as to which plug was that of the 
mike, and it
wasn't feasible to trace the mike chord.

So if anyone here has an idea, please let us know.

Thanks in advance.

Don Roberts

go to the play back properties, not the record properties,  check the mute for 
the microphone.
then go back to the record properties,  be sure that stereo mix is checked  
that the volume is set.
