[mythtv-users] Sound from DVD and Transcoded Recordings Doesn't Work

Eggert,

Nope...I double checked the manual last night and the PVR-350 is a line-out
not a line-in.  So should I feed the line-out of the PVR into the line-in of
the soundcard...and then feed the soundcards line-out to my TV or amp?
Would that get me sound from DVDs and transcoded recordings?

Thanks,
Matt
