Recently, one of my PVR-350's have begun to randomly drop the audio from recordings in MythTV. I have searched the archives and came across this thread (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/devel/36925) about spontaneous muting. Unfortunately, this thread doesn't really solve my problem. So far, I have recorded a bunch of shows during the day and at night. Sometimes, the audio will mute on one tuner, and all subsequent recordings on that tuner will also be muted. When I play the recording which mutes the audio, the video will freeze when the audio is muted. I have set options ivtv debug=255 in /etc/modprobe.conf and set MythTV's backend verbose level to all and haven't noticed any strange entries in /var/log/messages or /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log.
So far, I have noticed this on Fedora 8 kernels 2.6.23.8-63.fc8 and 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 and also with MythTV versions 0.20.2-169.fc8, 0.20.2-170.fc8and 0.20.2-171.fc8 from ATrpms. I have also switched the positioning of the PRV-350's in my PC and the muting problem still occurred on the same card making me believe it is most likely a hardware problem rather than a software problem. I have not had a chance to test under Windows since I do not own a Windows license. If anybody has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate them. My next idea is to send an email to Hauppauge and inquire about a RMA. Thanks. --SN My PC: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600, 2.4 ghz 2x1gb Corsair DDR2 800 ram Asus P5B Deluxe motherboard using bios revision 1226 2 x PVR-350's XFX Geforce 7900GS Thermaltake 700w powersupply Fedora 8 with all updates applied
