|
|
I am having a problem getting the sound to work with xawtv. Sound works with every other application that requires it.. Mplayer, xmms and xfce desktop burps. The video and tuner work fine. When I sepcify a mixer in the configuration file it appears to respond to the keypad. Nothing I try even makes the speakers crackle. Help........

Is the TV card sound output port connected with the Line-In port of your soundcard? |

If the tv card needs to be plugged into your line in on your sound card then make sure that your line in works correctly under linux. I have found that the problem mostly has to do with the line in volume. |

I too have the problem that I have no sound with xawtv / motv. I thought that it was caused by the driver for my SAA7134 based TV card, which chipset seems to be supported yust recently.
But I discovered that when I run xawtv / motv and then start the radio application I got the TV sound. However once I got the TV sound I can't switch from channel anymore.
I haven't tried it yet but perhaps an update from xawtv to the latest version (3.75 at the time of writing [see: http://bytesex.org/xawtv]) would help.

Install some sort of audio controller software. I have Aumix. Then pump up the volume on the "Line in" channel. I think by default, it is set to something very low.
I had the same thing.
On my system, the sound does not stop! Even when I shutdown xawtv, it continues. When I log out, it still continues. Infact, it does not stop until I power down the system. LOL |

Finally figured it out. Nothing wrong with the tv card. Just plugged in some amplified speakers into the audio out of the tv card and it works fine. Line-in on sound card must no quite be right. Now I can watch Tech TV on my computer. _________________ "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" -- Frankie Goes to Hollywood |

Plugged the tv card back into the sound card and emerged mix2000. It allowed me to crank up the volume on the line-in. Now everything works as it should. _________________ "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" -- Frankie Goes to Hollywood |
