Things are getting stranger, my problem turns out to be that gnome has esd running in the back ground and it is hogging the sound card. Once I killed esd, mplayer /dev/video produced a beautiful picture. Now on to install Mythtv. Not sure why the firmware load error is occuring but it doesn't seem to stop the mpeg stream from being produced :) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
