Hi,
I bought a WinTV PVR 150 card to benefit from hardware mpeg2 encoding.
Installation of ivtv went easily (I would say, too easily after reading
about all the problems). And now what happens is that I can watch TV and
can record but the sound is extremely quiet and also slightly distorted
(depending whether I play through analog or spdif output). I have to
turn up the volume very loud to hear anything. This happens both when I
watch TV with freevo/mplayer and when I play a recorded stream. When I
play the same file on another (Windows) computer, sound quality/volume
is perfect. So I believe this is a playback problem - maybe my linux
cannot play the file correctly.
Do I need any special audio codecs/mplayer settings to be able to have
decent sound? I dont really understand what is happening. Maybe I can
change the format of the sound recorded. The wiki does not say much
about config freevo with ivtv. BTW: I am using the default settings
(copied from wiki) changed to europe/PAL, plus the tuner input is 0
instead of 4. Of course all the other media plays perfectly. I use spdif
output - do I need any special settings for mplayer to play correctly? I
tried same settings as for dvds (-ao alsa hwac3) but this did not change
anything.
Please help
Thanks
Jan Hagemejer
