Hi Stef,

Actually, it's not the same problem, recording works fine, it has sound, its 
live TV that doesn't have sound until I change channels, there after it's ok 
until I restart the machine.

So, I am suspecting Mythtv is at fault or some setting that I have not made 
properly, and as I have sound on a recording it has little or nothing to do 
with ivtv.

Am I wrong in this assumption - what should I check to see ???
