ok, ill try that next and send in a report on that, as previously stated
if i do "#v4l2-ctl --set-audio-input 0 ; v4l2-ctl --set-audio-input 1" the
audio goes back to normal, i am currently not home and wount be till
friday night, but do have remote access and some one at home to work with
to get the results, so i should be able to post the results tomorrow
night.

the synax v4l2-dbg gives me ioctl: VIDIOC_DBG_G_REGISTER
and a large hex dump so i would guess its right since im not local i cant
test the audio till tomarrow and post the results of the 2 items you
listed.

also before i do these outputs should i revert it back to the 2.6.25
kernel drivers or leave it on the bleeding edge drivers that i built and
installed?

Thanks
Kevin
