Oh, that makes a lot more sense (proper line breaks and all). I guess  
the next question is what settings are you using that give you no  
audio? Also, you might have better luck posting on the AVS Forums (http://www.avsforum.com/ 
) since Myth seems to be doing the right thing here and there's more  
of a chance you'll find someone with an MG-350HD over there.
