[mythtv-users] Sound Issues

[Brian Rumple]

Have you tried test_ioctl to check if the volume is muted?  test_ioctl
is a ivtv utility.  I have read other posts that had this issue.

Do

test_ioctl -all

And look at the bottom.  My outputs like:

Volume = 59343
Mute = 0


You can set the value with:

test_ioctl --set-ctrl=volume=59343
test_ioctl --set-ctrl=mute=0

Hi again. Replying to my own post, that's how frustrated/desperate I am.
I spent more hours than the missus cared for this weekend trying to
resolve this but am coming up empty handed. I tried rolling my own
kernel to 2.4.26, patching with the kraxel patch, but that did not give
me sound. I waxed my whole FC1 installation and put Knoppmyth on, and
THAT is not supplying sound. A friendly poster sent me a short mpeg to
test, and that came thru with sound, so it appears the sound drivers are
working as expected. It's just captured video that has no audio.

Does anyone have any tests/steps/faq's I can try?

TIA.



Tom
