Frankly, I've been fighting this beast so long now, that I've long since forgotted exactly why I gave up on Xine. I do remember having a lot of trouble getting sound through my digital connection, but that was before I got it working right everywhere else. It's possible that it would be OK now. I just didn't get a "warm fuzzy" from the setup at the time, and was having too many other problems to keep digging. Maybe I can look at it again soon. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
