Sometimes soundcards have wierd mixer controls. Also, have you tried pluggin your speakers directly into the audio-out of the TV card? > I've checked the cord that runs from the AUDIO OUT port of my TV Tuner, into > the Tuner IN port of my sound card.

This isn't fatal, although you will notice a much higher CPU load while the TV tuner is on (coming from X, not fxtv). Turning on DGA may be trivial for your card (Matrox users for instance just define "WITH_MATROX_GXX_DRIVER" when building the XFree-4 port), but that's a seperate issue. > % dmesg | grep pcm > pcm0: <AudioPCI ES1370> port 0xe800-0xe83f irq 11 at device 8.0 on pci0 > > -------- BEGIN: (output of fxtv -debug startup)----- > Fxtv v1.02 > > DETECTED CAPTURE CARD(S) [DRIVER PROBES]: > bktr0: <BrookTree 878> mem 0xdf101000-0xdf101fff irq 9 at device 9.0 on > pci0 > iicbb0: <I2C generic bit-banging driver> on bti2c0 > bktr0: STB TV/PCI, Philips NTSC tuner, dbx stereo. Hmm, the bktr driver seems to understand your tuner, or at least it thinks it does. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.
