Thanks to all who offered advice. There is still no sound. Not a peep, not a crackle. It was suggested that I might need to hack something in the source code, but it's all Martian to me and I'm not even sure whether it'd address my problem. What I'm wondering now is could I be doing something silly that's preventing the sound happening, or could my sound card not be working right? It's gotta be something embarassingly simple. I can play sound files, but I've never actually used the line in before. There's a little cable from the TV card to the sound card, and the speakers are plugged in. I've plugged and replugged and cleaned the plugs. Beyond that what else should I check? FWIW here's what I see now: FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE-p3 #0: Sun Jan 26 11:28:00 EST 2003 ... bktr0: mem 0xe8002000-0xe8002fff irq 11 at device 9.0 on pci0 iicbb0: on bti2c0 iicbus0: on iicbb0 master-only iicbus1: on iicbb0 master-only smbus0: on bti2c0 bktr0: Detected a MSP3415G-B8 at 0x80 bktr0: Hauppauge WinCast/TV, Philips PAL tuner, msp3400c stereo. pci0: (vendor=0x109e, dev=0x0878) at 9.1 irq 11 ... pca0 at port 0x40 on isa0 pcm0: at port 0x220-0x22f,0x530-0x537,0x388-0x38b,0x330-0x331,0x370-0x371 irq 5 drq 0,1 on isa0 t$ cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: at io 0x530 irq 5 drq 0:1 bufsz 4096 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex) And I've tried bumping up various mixer settings willy-nilly: $ mixer Mixer vol is currently set to 90:90 Mixer bass is currently set to 50:50 Mixer treble is currently set to 50:50 Mixer synth is currently set to 75:75 Mixer pcm is currently set to 90:90 Mixer speaker is currently set to 75:75 Mixer line is currently set to 90:90 Mixer mic is currently set to 0:0 Mixer cd is currently set to 75:75 Mixer mix is currently set to 0:0 Mixer igain is currently set to 0:0 Is it time to develop a passion for foreign films with subtitles? -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
