I"m pretty sure the problem is your mixer.

Use alsamixer or kmixer to set your capture device to the line-in.

Hey I have an audio question - with all the hundreds of cables i have lying
around here, I haven't found one yet that will take the PVR-350 TV out L/R
RCA audio and allow me to feed them back into my sound card's 'Line In'.

The cable that i thought for sure would work is a spare computer
speaker cable
for old stereo sound cards that just have L/R. its a small jack on one end
that plugs into the speaker plug on the soundcard, with two RCA's on the
other end to plug into the L/R speaker. I figured if it works to go 'out' it
would also work to come back in??

I have a SB Audigy sound card, and in alsamixer, turned "Line" in up to max, "Mic" in (just in case) up to max , (and actually every other control there
just to be sure) and i still don't get any sound coming out of my computer
speakers.

The only thing I can think of, is maybe the line is is mono and the stereo
jack isn't making connections in the right place? I'm pretty sure its stereo
though, so....

has anyone else had any luck feeding the sound from the 350 TV out back into
their sound card?

(i know that there's sound coming out, because i can plug the RCA jacks
directly into the back of my TV and the sound works fine... but I'd really
prefer the sound to go through the computer speakers so the volume can be
controlled with myth (not to mention, my computer speakers blow the TV
speakers away any day).

Thanks,
  James

I got a Y cable at Radio Shack for about $7 and it worked fine. Check
your settings on the sound side and make sure you don't have
something muted. That seems to be the most likely problem
