Hans,

I am having problems with sound and picture quality on
some channels with my PVR-150 (as described in
http://www.ivtvdriver.org/pipermail/ivtv-users/2005-October/000159.html).

I tried using "ivtvctl -g reg=0x808,val=0x1f" and it
changed from no sound to white noise on one of the
affected channels (and the channel stayed b/w, but I
am not surprised at that!). Here's the tveeprom output
if its any help.

tveeprom: ivtv version
tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 26582, rev = C299,
serial# = 8440358
tveeprom: tuner = TCL 2002N 5H (idx = 99, type = 50)
tveeprom: tuner fmt = NTSC(M) (eeprom = 0x08, v4l2 =
0x00001000)
tveeprom: audio processor = CX25843 (type = 25)
tveeprom: decoder processor = CX25843 (type = 1e)

Thanks for your time,
Doug
