<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hey,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I tried that and got sound from the line in. Then i
mute it (and turn everything else up) and run aplay /dev/dsp and I don't hear
anything.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a cable running from my capture card to my
sound card Line In. I set Line In as the capture source too.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This card is full duplex capable (it states that in
/var/log/message).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any other ideas as to what is up with the
sound?</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>

<BR>> I'm able to hear a .wav file play. <BR>> I get video using xawtv;
however trying to run aplay /dev/dsp I get no <BR>> sound. <BR>> <BR>>
I've ran the ALSA and the mixer setup. <BR>> <BR>> When I run the RCA
cable from the Satelitte to my MIC on my soundcard I <BR>> can hear the sound
fine, but I'm assuming it's just passing through, and <BR>> not actually
playing off xawtv. <BR>> <BR>> Anyone know if I have the cables setup
correctly? If so, why can't I <BR>> hear any sound when running aplay
/dev/dsp <BR><BR>Your cabling looks to be correct. If you connect the audio
<BR>to the breakout box, you also need the patch cable from the <BR>capture card
"out" to an input for the sound card. I'll <BR>assume line-in for now.
<BR><BR>First, verify that the audio signal is going through line-in. <BR>Unmute
and turn up the volume for line-in in alsamixer. Run <BR>xawtv to make sure that
you hear the patched through sound. <BR><BR>Once that works then you need to
make line-in the capture <BR>source. In alsamixer mute line-in with "m" and mark
it for <BR>capture with spacebar and turn up the volume for the "Capture"
<BR>mixer. Try the xawtv & aplay /dev/dsp again. If it still <BR>doesn't
work, check if there are mixers for Wav Capture, <BR>AC97 Capture, and see if
turning those up helps. If you <BR>are using digital out from the sound card to
the receiver, <BR>try connecting speakers to the speaker out jack (I once
<BR>had a problem with routing from some inputs to the digital <BR>out).
<BR><BR><BR>If you are going to be switching between video from the
<BR>satellite and coax cable, connecting the audio to the <BR>breakout box is
the way to go so that the tuner card can <BR>switch audio sources for you (works
for me but mdz had some <BR>trouble with this. See the thread from earlier this
week). <BR>However, if you are only using the satellite feed, you can <BR>plug
the audio directly into line-in of the sound card <BR>without routing it through
the tuner card first. <BR><BR>-- bjm
