[mythtv-users] dual (bilingual) sound

[David Ellis]

You can do this outside of MythTV.

Use amixer to switch the balance of your input (I'm assuming your tuner card
uses line-in to get audio), and tie it to a lirc command (from the remote
control).

Hi,

does MythTV support dual sound (instead of normal stereo sound)? You
know, some movies are broadcasted with dual sound - left channel of
stereo sound is used for one language and the right channel is used for
another language. Most often for translated/original sound. Is this
supported in MythTV? If it isn't, any idea how to add it most easily? It
basically requires to take just one channel and to send it as mono sound
out. And to allow user to switch between the channels (lang1/lang2)
would be a nice bonus.
