Unfortunaly, the satellite decoder only has S-Video/RCA output so I picked the S-Video one. Furthermore, my BrookTree card only has RCA input.

Does mixer =rec mic help ? Post the output > of mixer if not. It did not help :( I set the satellite decoder volume to max to make sure I had a good input.
