How to set input? #161

Open ForceConstant opened 1 month ago

ForceConstant commented 1 month ago

So I have a fresh ubuntu 22.04, that boots up into LXDE and installed Cavailer using flatpak. And I only get the "Lets Dance" screen. In the volume control mixer, I do see input under "Input Devices". I want to show what is coming in from the microphone.

Also I see cava_config, but this seems to get overwritten when starting. Is this a flatpak issue?

Is this a flatpak issue?

No i remember Cavalier sets its own cava config so that's why its getting overwritten

@fsobolev Do you have any insight?

So looking at it more, it seems that it is currently not possible, as cavalier writes the cava config file on startup, and only allows you to change the CAVALIER_INPUT_METHOD, as a feature request, could we get a CAVALIER_INPUT_SOURCE also that defaults to auto, but allows you to set to anything else?
