How do I record internal audio with screenrecorder?
A3. Recording internal audio requires magisk module to be installed to systemize screenrecorder.
This is because, the internal audio recording API requires the app to run with elevated
permission which is granted to only system apps. Don't worry, magisk does not modify any system
files. After all, magisk modules were build only for such cases.

Q4. I cannot hear any audio while recording with internal audio recording
A4. This is not a bug and it is how the API works when the internal audio is recorded with
r_Submix stream. Android re-routes the audio to internal audio source to the app and that is
directly encoded into the video. Unfortunately nothing can be done about this.
Q5. What is the difference between Internal Audio(Default Source) and Internal Audio (System
app, R-Submix)
A5. Default Source works on only few selected devices (mostly on phones which has call recording
built-in) and uses standard public API to record internal audio. The drawback being, it also
records mic input and there could be lot of noise added to the recorded audio.
Note:
The audio output is not recorded from mic. Instead the internal audio and the mic input are
mixed together by android
