title: Android: How to configure "tinymix" to record system audio with "tinycap"
body: <p>in Android it's currently impossible to record system-audio with the Android-SDK.</p>
  
  <p>Therefore I played around a bit with TinyALSA (since Android 4) and hope I can reroute the audio-out so I can record it.</p>
  
  <p>When I call "tinymix" on my device I get following configuration:</p>

  <p>Does someone know which parameters I have to set so I can capture the playback (e.g. "multimedia") with "tinycap"?</p>
  
  <p>Sadly there's no documentation available.</p>
  
  <p>Kind regards,
