I had similar problems, it I understand you correctly, with TV sound and the nforce4 chipset, I tried all these setting MPLAYER_AO_DEV = 'alsa:mmap:device=hw=0.0' MPLAYER_AO_DEV = 'alsa:noblock:device=hw=0.0' MPLAYER_AO_DEV = 'alsa:device=hw=0.0' The last one worked, looking at the wiki page you posted, I think that your set-up should be similar. MPLAYER_AO_DEV = 'alsa:device=hw=1.0' may work. IIRC I have applied a patch to 1.6 to use MPLAYER_AO_DEV for TV sound. > > http://linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Saa7134-alsa > > The alternative is to use Live TV Pause for watching TV.

The current live TV pause is only for xine and ivtv card, this is because xine only support ivtv cards with the mrl pvr:// What you're doing is watch a record TV programme as it's being recorded, which has always worked.
