Exactly - this is how I dealt with the tinny audio issue present in
older versions of the ivtv driver. The channel change script was
always called as I was using the Composite input - so I just called
another script to manipulate ivtv-ctl (and send to background) and
reset the audio input.
If you do use this method, you *must* ensure that the channel change
script returns quickly, otherwise MythTV will think tuning has failed
and abort the recording.
