[mythtv-users] /dev/video0 - Device or ressource busy

[Matthew Mead]

Video is fixed.
I had alsa problems.

Now im stuck with sound issues. I turned the sound up with the ALSA audio
mixer in kde but it doesnt seem to have helped.

Anyone have a suggestion for that? Else I'll keep digging :)

Thanks to everyone whos been helping me the past few days!
