"Can't you add a second tuner and make it have higher recording<br>
priority? That way you wife gets to watch live TV on an earlier<br>
'free' tuner.<br>
<br>
Have you check your volume settings in your frontend?<br>
<br>
In the Frontend --> Utilities/Setup --> Setup --> General --> 4 or<br>
5th Screen (Audio Mixer)<br>
<br>
Make sure the volume settings there are maxed, it defaults to 70% and<br>
turns down the system master volume."<br><br>Another tuner that can do all of the premium channels requires another HD-PVR (~$200) plus another cable box (+$10/mo) and I can't spend that just so she can watch LiveTV. My only other option if this isn't a possibility is to schedule all of my recordings for night or during the day when we both are at work. But IMO it seems like the option should be there to enable this kind of functionality. I would much rather her kill a recording every now and then over spending $200+$120/yr. Or at least prompt her to watch the recording while it records.<br>
<br><br>"Maybe a stupid question, but have you run alsamixer and checked<br>
whether the Master volume and anything else relevant is set to 100?<br>
<br>
It's also my experience that the HD-PVR is significantly louder than the HDHR."<br><br>As for the audio, I have checked on both screens in mythfrontend and running alsamixer and both are already set to 100%. I did find it odd though that I actually have to use /dev/dsp for output in order to get any audio though.<br>
