Hey folks. Got a smidgen of a problem. Sorta :)<br><br>I made the switch on Friday, to go from watching my TV off a regular 19"<br>LCD monitor to a much larger, old tv. I'm using KnoppMyth and a Nvidia<br>graphics card with SVideo out... and everything worked immediately when
<br>I disconnected the monitor and connected the TV. Quality looks awesome<br>-- no difference than if I had connected the cable directly to the tv.<br><br>However, there is a problem.<br><br>My Hauppauge remote (from a PVR-150, A415) appears to send the same
<br>signals as my actual TV remote. If I hit volume up or volume down on my<br>Hauppauge... not only does the MythTV volume go up and down, but the<br>*television* volume goes up and down! The speakers on the TV have<br>
become "iffy" sounding, so I keep the volume down to zero on the TV and<br>use external speakers for my audio, which sounds great.<br><br>Channel up and Channel Down also do the same thing, which is even bigger<br>
of a problem... because it takes me off of the SVideo input.<br><br>The television is a 27" Philips brand TV. It is about 5 or 6 years old.<br><br>Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!<br><br><br>Thanks,<br>
