Nudge nudge.<br><br>I just made a post to the list about using mencoder to convert the ac3 from a dvd's audio track to mp2 then it plays out fine on the pvr-350 so it can play OK. You can use this as a custom job to make DVB recordings IVTV-tv out friendly too.
<br><br>Are you saying in your post that mythtv checks the recording source and if recording source =! pvr cardid then don't allow playback through the /dev/video16 interface? It should check there stream. Is there a Database hack we can do to fix this assuming my assumption is correct, because i'm having trouble making it stop using XV.
<br><br>Also with the PVR-350 video output driver (the one that may get dumped), does it work when you are running the Xserver through framebuffer (and what seems to be locked /dev/video48) on the same port? I.e. can you switch from menu's to playing video all on the one physical output.
<br><br>I had a grumble too about the X-server using up all available CPU. What's the most recent status of SVN for the ivtvdev xserver module, I've noticed there has been some work recently on it.<br><br>Cheers,

http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users</a><br>><br>><br>><br><br>Thats how it works unfortunately, you can only playback recordings<br>using the built in decoder , I think you have no choice but to use the
<br>overlay to play back dvd etc, which means that the sound is not output<br>from the pvr-350. People kludge around that by using sound crd output<br>and connecting the output from the 350 to line in or running arecord<br>
piped into aplay to record and playback the 350 output.<br><br>You could use a usb sound card, I've used a turtle beach audio<br>advantage micro which is cheap and works ok, and it has spdif output,<br>but no input.. somebody posted to this list recently with a link to a
<br>very cheap usb sound stick with 3.5 stereo input and output, that<br>might be a solution but it probably wouldnt have a onboard mixer so<br>you would have to arecord/aplay and that can introduce delay, although<br>you can adjust the audio delay in myth to compensate its not ideal and
<br>i found that it was hard to keep sync :(.<br><br>Support for the pvr-350 as a output device is unmaintanied and will be<br>dropped if/when it is broken by some other change, so you might want<br>to think about driving your tv another way .
