Can’t record web-audio in Audacity 2.2.0 in Win 10,
I believe Audacity needs to be fixed to allow web recording like it used to in older versions of Windows.
I can record web audio using another program called FastStone and I have spent 12 hours trying all the internet solutions with Audacity.
So I have done all the obvious things.
More information follows:
I have the latest versions of Windows 10 & Audacity= 2.2.0.
I right click the “Speaker Icon” in my tray and select “Playback” or “Recording Device”.
The PLAYBACK tab shows one & two green bars on far right side of screen (see below) & I can hear the sound from my speakers.
But the RECORDING tab {for either of my “Stereo Mix” devices} has no sound and no green bars on the right side of the screen.
Even when I go into Properties, select the “Levels” tab, & move the level from zero to 50 I still don’t get any sound.
For some reason, the level reverts to zero after a few seconds?.
Windows 10 also tells me the best drivers are already installed when I ask Windows to search for a newer driver.
I disabled all the microphones.
I ran the windows troubleshooter & it told me the audio device was muted & it was fixed, but still no recording sound?.
I am guessing this might be the Level gauge that reverts to zero after a period of time when I move it up to 50?
NOTE- I had pictures of the Windows popups to show the configurations I had tried (but they did not paste here) to I will try the upload attachment below
