I'm trying to recall but I may have seen this on a PVR-350 about 2 years ago and it was my default recording profile that had some strange audio setting. I'm not at home right now so I can't really tell exactly where to look.<br><br><br><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">----- Original Message ----<br>From: Lorenzo Mueller <lorenzo.mueller@mail2web.com><br>To: Discussion about mythtv <mythtv-users@mythtv.org><br>Sent: Tuesday, November 6, 2007 12:26:27 PM<br>Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] MythTV Hauppauge PVR-150 Recordings fromComposite are destorted<br><br>Nobody who can help me ?<br> <br>I do

fromComposite are destorted<br><br><br>Hi,<br> <br>Thx for your input, but it still does not work.<br> <br>As I have a new version of ivtv, the ivtvctl-command with your
parameters does not work.<br>I used instead:<br>v4l2-ctl -a 0 and<br>v4l2-ctl -a 1 and<br>v4l2-ctl -a 2<br> <br>With input 0 i got the sound of the tuner.<br>With input 1 i got the distorted sound of the composite-input<br>With input 2 i heard nothing.<br> <br>I do not know if it is "distorted". It sounds like when I would record
this with 11 kHz or so...<br> <br>when I did:<br> <br>cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg<br> <br>The sound of the composite-input is OK. So I assume that it is
something mythtv-related (Maybe a setting or so...)<br> <br>Hope go hear from someone a new "hint" or workaround or so...<br> <br>Thx in advance<br> <br>Cheers<br><br>________________________________<br><br>Von: <a ymailto="mailto:mythtv-users-bounces@mythtv.org" href="mailto:mythtv-users-bounces@mythtv.org">mythtv-users-bounces@mythtv.org</a> im Auftrag von Cool Frood<br>Gesendet: Sa 03.11.2007 14:39<br>An: Discussion about mythtv<br>Betreff: Re: [mythtv-users] MythTV Hauppauge PVR-150 Recordings

Now I don't have a cable box anymore and I'm using the<br>tuner on the PVR-150 so I don't have this issue any more. I came<br>across this hack when I was trying to deal with the problem:<br><br>#!/bin/sh<br> # Some variables used to remember if the device is in use or not<br> record_video0=NO<br> # Loop forever<br> while true<br> do<br> # Is the video device in use
?<br> fuser /dev/video0 2>/dev/null >/dev/null<br> if [ $? -eq 0 ]<br> then<br> # Something is using video device and this is the first time<br>we notice this<br> if [ "$record_video0" = "NO" ]<br> then<br> date<br> echo " recording on video0"<br> sleep 5<br> /usr/local/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -q 0<br> echo<br> fi<br> record_video0=YES<br> else<br> # Not recording<br> if [ "$record_video0" = "YES" ]<br> then<br> date<br> echo " not recording anymore on video0"<br>
echo<br> fi<br> record_video0=NO<br> fi<br> sleep 1<br> done<br><br>I put this in a script called sound_fixer and started this in my<br>.xinitrc (or .xserverrc, I forget). You might have to play with the<br>"-q" value in the ivtvctl command to figure out which one works for<br>you.<br><br>Hope this helps,<br>Akshat<br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org" href="mailto:mythtv-users@mythtv.org">mythtv-users@mythtv.org</a><br><a href="http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users" target="_blank">http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users</a><br><br><br></div><br></div></div><br>
