Shaun, I seem to recall having a problem with CBC/channel 6 that appeared to be related to SAP, but I didn't look further. I have not seen anything specific about selecting a secondary audio program, but it might be a specific PVR250 card setting.
Maybe someone can suggest something in that light. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shaun Jackman Sent: Monday, June 06, 2005 5:25 PM To: Andrew Nash; Discussion about mythtv Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] Greater Toronto Area Hello Andrew, I have the exact same problem you are having! The first show of Coronation Street at 19h00 records perfectly, but occasionally (say 5 to 10%) the second show at 19h30 records without sound! It always amazes me when I find somebody on the mailing list with the *exact* same problem I'm seeing. I live in Vancouver, Canada, and Coronation Street airs on CBC, Shaw (analog) Cable channel 3. I have a single capture card, a Hauppauge PVR 250. Did you find a solution to your problem?
