When one opens the “Capture Device” tab of either “Media > Open Capture Device” or “Media > Convert / Save”, the dialogue box lists “Video camera”, “JACK Audio Connection Kit”, “TV – digital”, “TV – analog” and “Desktop” in the “Capture mode” option.
My requests are:
1. To allow a “Audio only” capture mode in this list, as selecting “Video camera” as the capture mode and setting only the “Audio device name” does not play/convert only the audio but also the video.
2. An added bonus would be to display the names of the audio and video devices in “Device Selection” like the ones displayed in the “Devices” category in the left hand pane of playlist view.
3. Probably remove the “JACK Audio Connection Kit” entry as JACK may not be installed on all Linux systems and should not be prioritized over other sound infrastructures like Pulseaudio and Pipewire.
4. To allow changing the default location of saving the recorded audio/video streams which currently gets saved in “/home/user/Music” and “/home/user/Videos” folders respectively and probably allow setting the file name format for the saved files.
