[mythtv-users] Audio looping and replay

Hey Matthew, Not sure if the ATI TV Wonder is a BT878 based card. If so, I
would recommend that you use the btaudio driver instead of connecting
through the SBLive card. If you can get it to work, it's a boatload cleaner.

This gives you the following connections:

/dev/dsp2 -> mythbackend ->mythfrontend ->/dev/dsp

This also gives you a little more stability in the audio chain if you are
recording TV whilst using mythfrontend for another purpose.

Drop me a line offtopic if you need a hand setting it up.

Mark.
