Strange. I tried my standalone script again today, and the audio worked!

#!/bin/sh
mplayer -vop pp=fd -fps 30 -tv
\driver=v4l2:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=32000:forceaudio:\
volume=100:immediatemode=0:input=0:device=/dev/video0:norm=pal:\
chanlist=europe-west:width=720:height=576 tv://$1

Currently I have MPLAYER_AO_DEV set to:

MPLAYER_AO_DEV       = 'alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:\
audiorate=32000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0'

but audio is missing when I disable the audio Line-In in Freevo SVN
20061020. I won't be able to try your patch till end of this week, I don't
have broadband access at home.

T.C.

PS: Sorry for the wierd email formatting, my email client doesn't allow me
to post from home, and my webmail client doesn't have GPG enabled
currently.
