==========================================================================
Thanks Mike --- I now have sound that I can control from mythtv using the keyboard.
Another related issue --- The vol level is not high enough, even with mythtv set at 100%.
I believe there is a command line method of effecting the sound level from the capture card; Do
you know what it is?? The capture card is a PVR150 (the one with no radio tuner and no remote)
