ok i am a little confused.. as always lol. I am looking at my pvr350
card and i am confused where to plug in the L/R audio inputs.  on my
card there is an FM input (not being used), svideo in (connected via
svideo to the svideo port on my cable box), audio.vd out (which i used
the cables provided to connect the svideo portion to my tv, I
currently don't have the right/left audio inputs connected to my tv),
line in and ir port.  so where does the left/right audio outputs from
the cab;e box go into on the pvr-350?
