Describe the bug
The audio from WhatsApp calls on my google phone are not being forwarded to my mac running osx 10.15.7
thats whatsapp not allowing audio to not being shared to the system. if you use screen recorded from your phone even that would not have any audio in it.
Same behavior on: OS: Ubuntu 24.04 Android: 16 scrcpy version: 3.3.3 https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
Dependencies (compiled / linked):
- SDL: 2.30.0 / 2.30.0
- libavcodec: 60.31.102 / 60.31.102
- libavformat: 60.16.100 / 60.16.100
- libavutil: 58.29.100 / 58.29.100
- libavdevice: 60.3.100 / 60.3.100
- libusb: - / 1.0.27
form the documentation it seemed possible with:
--audio-source=source
Select the audio source. Possible values are:
- "output": forwards the whole audio output, and disables playback on
the device.
- "playback": captures the audio playback (Android apps can opt-out, so
the whole output is not necessarily captured).
- "mic": captures the microphone.
- "mic-unprocessed": captures the microphone unprocessed (raw) sound.
- "mic-camcorder": captures the microphone tuned for video recording,
with the same orientation as the camera if available.
- "mic-voice-recognition": captures the microphone tuned for voice
recognition.
- "mic-voice-communication": captures the microphone tuned for voice
communications (it will for instance take advantage of echo cancellation
or automatic gain control if available).
- "voice-call": captures voice call.
- "voice-call-uplink": captures voice call uplink only.
- "voice-call-downlink": captures voice call downlink only.
- "voice-performance": captures audio meant to be processed for live
performance (karaoke), includes both the microphone and the device
playback.
Default is output.
even forcing --audio-source=output dose not work.
