First all of all you need to be certain it is just a sound card issue, so I suggest mp3's. From what you said, it sounds like a sound card issue and not anything to do with ivtv. I had weird problems with gentoo-2.6.12, especially errors with the clock deciding that 24 hours should occur in about 2/3's that much time or perhaps less. I had audio problems as well. The latest 2.6.13 gentoo sources seems to have fixed the time issue and the related insane keyboard repeat issue, unfortunately sound is still not really right. I'm listening to an mp3 via an optical cable and you can hear the distortion easily enough. (This is an asus a8n sli premium.) On the other hand my front end system uses a biostar m7vig 400 where I soldered a connector on for spdif output. It uses a VT8233/a/8235/8237 AC97 chip according to lspci. It is also running 2.6.13 gentoo sources and it sounds fine (well you have to turn down one thing in alsa mixer to get sound, which is wierd, but still it does sound fine.) so I suspect the driver support for the nvidia chip on my motherboard is lacking. The quickest cure is probably to find a nice sound card that is well supported and just use that. I particularly recommend this idea if your in a hurry and your audio chip is something fairly new. I can post my frontend .config file, if it would be helpful.. It can also sometimes be helpful to go back to the vanilla souces. It seems computer repairs get reduced to trial and error more often than anyone likes.. > Can some one tell me what kernel version and ivtv versions they are > using?
