Hello,

A common way to do this is to install the pavucontrol (PulseAudio volume control) software, to open SongRec, to go to the "Recording" tab of pavucontrol, and to make SongRec record audio for example from "Monitor of Built-in Audio Analog Stereo" instead of "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo", as illustrated here: https://askubuntu.com/a/250278

Good evening, thank you very much for such a quick response, and it would be very cool if you added a quick access button to start the song search, it can be somewhat inconvenient to constantly switch between tabs

Hello,

I have added a feature allowing to recognize songs from the speakers output in release 0.1.4, which is being pushed to the distribution channels.

It should add a checkbox dubbed "Recognize from my speakers instead of microphone" to the UI.

Can you please explicit more what you are thinking about when saying "a quick access button" and "the song search"?

I apologize for clarifying myself somewhat abstractly, I meant it as an icon for the shazam that stands on the screen (on phones) for quick access,

Thanks for this. The hack works like magic
