Hi Andrew,
when you say there is no support for loopback, does this mean that when the
audio host is set to WASAPI, there are no options with loopback when you
select the recording device?

Hi Brian
For reason or reasons unknown, neither my notebook or desktop support
loopback. If yours is the same or if you want a simple solution Ted’s
suggestion is effective. The complication is that stereo mix is usually
disabled by default. As Ted said, easier explained by phone, but I can
give you a step by step process if you want. In brief, go to sound
settings and, under the record tab, enable stereo mix.
As Steve mentioned, you will get the screen reader’s speech unless you
turn it off (NVDA-s is your friendly toggle).
Ideally you would use a mixer of some sort, but that requires money and
research (not in that order). That way you can, as Steve said, separate
the screen reader from the internet material.
In summary, stereo mix will do the trick if no other options are available.

Hi all, I want to record from a stream on the Internet into Audacity. Is
this possible? Is there a setting within Audacity or somewhere within the
window setting that I need to change to enable this?
