Yeah, I had that too (it sounds like you're listening through a tin
can) and have now upped the bitrate. I have no idea why the pops are
still there though...<br>

<pre wrap="">To everyone who has successfully configured the analog tuner on one of
these cards, how is your sound? Do you have sound issues at all?
For me, I had to apply a patch to cx88_alsa to make the card release
the audio device before changing channels. Otherwise, I could tune to
an analog channel, but then if I tuned to a second analog channel the
sound would cut out. But, now that I have sound, I'm getting a lot of
annoying pops in the sound stream, even though I've raised the quality
of the default recording profile quite a bit.
Has anyone experienced this before? Is the NTSC tuner in this card
simply unreliable? The video is quite poor too but I've never used an
analog tuner either.
Thanks,
Jesse.

<pre wrap="">I'm not using a pcHDTV tuner, but I am using cx88_alsa with an HVR3000
card, and I get annoying pops and crackles in the audio when I'm
watching analog TV. I posted about it a while ago, but no-one replied.
I'm in the UK so this is using a PAL tuner.
Any thoughts might help both situations I guess.
Robert.

I have it working and the audio is just fine. For a long time my audio
was terrible, sounded like an MP3 file at very low compression rates.
On the front end, Utilities/Setup - Setup - TV Settings -
Recording Profiles - Software Encoder (v4l based):
in the Live TV setting, last page, make sure it's not set to MP3 for the
codec. Change to Uncompressed 48000.
