I have discovered that when I run livetv I can start tvtime.
There is no picture in tvtime as mythtv has grabbed the video
device, but more importantly tvtime unmutes the 'Aux' channel
and increments the volume to that channel. Then mythtv records
and plays sound in tv, although only on the left channel...

If I manually unmute 'Aux' and increase the volume I still
cannot get MythTV to hear/record audio in livetv. Weird huh?

If thats a clue to you guys its not to me...its just confusing!

Kind regards,
