Oh yeah, you are right.

But it's a copy/paste of one of the trick i've tried, my mistake 

Sure i've already done an  : 

ffmpeg -f jack -ac 2  -i hw:1 -f x11grab -s 1920x1080 -r 25 -i :0.0
nul.mp4

But the same...

Stangely the jack_capture - or audacity - command work great...but i
want to avoid having, 1 sound file, 1 video file and then join them :/
Dont want to bring out the big guns for that.



Still looking....

Thank you anyway for reading.

All the best.
