[mythtv] RE: [mythtv-users] SN41G2 (amd) Shuttle and MythTV

[WeaselGod]

I have been trying for several weeks.  So far, I can't get the Myth to 
work because of the audio.  I think if I had a TV card that could work 
with BTAudio I would be fine.  However, the 3 cards I have ALL don't 
have the right chip to do BTAudio.  So, I either have to buy another 
tuner, or hack the drivers myself.  Since there is only 1 PCI slot I 
can't replace the audio.  I am running mandrake 9.0.  I have tried the 
OSS that comes with it mandrake, I have tried the drivers from NVidia's 
site, and I have compiled and installed the latest ALSA drivers.  They 
all have issues with FULL DUPLEX.  Unless Nvidia is going to release 
real drivers or more information about their audio hardware so drivers 
can be made that are native to it, this is going to be a nightmare.

I am going to stick it through, but I am really annoyed I bought this 
now, I may have to result to just building another windows based PVR 
which doesn't have NEAR the Myth Functionality but if I can't figure 
this out in another month, I am just going to give in.
