You have to change the device number in pikrellcam.conf ( /home/pi/.pikrellcam/pikrellcam.conf )
In short:
Sometimes the Pi will change the card and device number on startup and so always check the mic function on startup.
This article gives some good guidance on attaching a usb card to the pi: https://iotbytes.wordpress.com/connect-configure-and-test-usb-microphone-and-speaker-with-raspberry-pi/
Having used Pikrellcam for a couple of years now, I decided that it was time to start adding sound. (I use it for photographing birds). I have a USB microphone which works fine on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B v1.2, but when I try to use it with Pikrellcam I get this error:
Audio error - cannot open microphone. pcm open failed: No such file or directory
This happens when I press the microphone icon to turn on the microphone.
I'm using Raspbian Linux 10 (buster)
