In reply to my earlier post:

An upgrade of ivtv to 2.0 (rc3i) fixed the playback problem.
The message about /dev/dsp not being available is apparently a bug that is known and fixable by a trivial change + recompile.

I also found out that frontend 0.15 and backend 0.17 do not talk to
each other, as the protocol has been bumped from ver 8 to 14.

Also, I didn't find any 0.15 debs anywhere, which makes downgrading less attractive.

I recently upgraded from 0.15 to 0.17 using the Debian packages
available at  http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz/debian.

As a result, playback using the PVR 350 decoder was broken (it worked
properly before the upgrade). When trying to watch a recording,
myhtfrontend first announces that it cannot access /dev/dsp (which is
not in use). When I choose to proceed without sound, only a black screen
is shown (no audio). Mythbackend seems to work well, though. I use ivtv
0.1.9 PAL. dd to /dev/video16 still works

I found references to this problem in earlier posts, but no solution.
Any help would be appreciated.

I am currently leaning towards going back to 0.15. My main concern is
the database, which has been upgraded to 0.17; will it still work with
0.15 or do I have to rebuild it?
