AV port?

[Siddeley]

I am wanting to record audio only.  (music channel live tv)

Am I out to lunch on this?  I have only stuck a toothpick in there before and don't want to screw things up.

Can I use the av port on the box? 

What type of 1/8 male plug is required?  (tip & sleeve, tip & (# of) rings  & sleeve)

What is the type of output is it, (analogue, digital of some sort)?

Would be recording to a mini computer.

Just record it the same way you record a show

Its 3 RCA to 3.5MM Adapter

But its not going to work the way you want it, as you cannot use HDMI at the same time

Thanks for the response.

I was wanting to record it to a thumb drive or sd card as mp3 so I could take it and have tunes while traveling.

Even if you connected via the A/V port, or the Optical port, you'd have to connect it to a PC or some other device in order to record/capture it.  My computer monitor has an Audio out port (which I use to connect a small soundbar to) and it can extract the audio from HDMI input and output it over that 3.5mm jack.

What I typically do is  use the Free version of Spotify, create my playlists (limit playlists to 100 songs per), then create a share link for my list, and then use one of the multitude of online Spotify to MP3 downloaders online.   They typically find and download the MP3 audio for the songs, typically from the youtube videos

I do it all the time for my kids when we travel.  They send me their playlist, I download them, and they just put the MP3 files on their phones.  But you can put them anywhere you want obviously.
