Hi
Have installed MythTV on a Hush Technologies box using Jarod's excellent HOWTO. Unfortunately I've got problems making sound work on live TV and recordings.
When I start up Watch TV the picture is ok but there is no sound. If I switch channel the sound is suddenly ok. There is no sound when showing TV recordings.
When I first installed MythTV I used KDE but I were unable to get any sound at all. No system sound but aplay seemed to work occationally. Tried first /dev/adsp but MythTV always complained about not finding the device even if world had rwx on it. I switched to Gnome, turned on Sound Server (esd) and got Gnome sound events to work ok but only after MythTV had ben started (uses /dev/dsp) and I had switched channel once. Any help immensely appreciated.
TV Card is WinTV PVR-350.
Sound card is on-board Realtek ALC650 with AC'97 codec 5.1 channel on a P4M-865G MAX card from fic.com.tw. The audio-out from the PVR-350 is switched back to line-in on the sound card. TV display is for the moment on my standard X monitor.
Base installation is Fedora FC3 with kernel updated to 2.6.9-1.724_FC3.
Hi all who might have contemplated replying - I found the error. I used the wrong msp3400 module, just as stated in the http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html
The problem was that I had actually replaced the stock msp3400 but obviously with the wrong one. A little rpm'ing found the following
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpm -qal|grep msp3400 /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.724_FC3/updates/drivers/media/video/msp3400-ivtv.ko /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667/kernel/drivers/media/video/msp3400.ko /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.724_FC3/kernel/drivers/media/video/msp3400.ko /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.724_FC3/updates/drivers/media/video/msp3400.ko
belonging to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpm -qal|grep msp3400|xargs rpm -qf ivtv-kmdl-2.6.9-1.724_FC3-0.2.0-60_rc3d.rhfc3.at kernel-2.6.9-1.667 kernel-2.6.9-1.724_FC3 video4linux-kmdl-2.6.9-1.724_FC3-20041005_125709-53.rhfc3.at
So I seem to have used the video4linux version. After renaming that module, copying the msp3400-ivtv.ko into msp3400.ko and reloading the module the sound worked perfect !
A little unsure though because the HOWTO states that |modinfo msp3400 | grep "parm: *standard" should return |"parm: standard int" but it doesn't. The HOWTO needs possibly an update.
Cheers !
