How to capture microphone input in VLC?

Question

I\'m trying to capture microphone input in VLC media player via the http interface and stream this but so far I have arrived at nothing. Is this actually possible?

On Linux if you need to stream also video remember to separate all the options with ":" . In this case I am streaming the usb cam with the default alsa microphone.

cvlc v4l2:///dev/video0 :v4l2-standard=ALL :input-slave=alsa://hw:0,0 :live-caching=300  ':sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=3500,width=1920,height=1080,acodec=mp3,ab=192,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:http{mux=ts,dst=:8080/}'
