I just installed a second PVR-150 card in my Mythtv system. The audio level on one of the cards is noticeably lower than the other. The "good" card seems to have audio levels consistent with what I remember (i.e., put the receiver volume knob at 8 O'clock for comfortable listening). The other card needs to be cranked up another few notches to be loud enough.
A user on the Mythtv list indicates that this is a problem with the hauppauge cards, and that a workaround (in mythtv or ivtv) is not in the current plans. I wanted to check here and see if there was any other input on how to deal with the problem. The ivtv segment of dmesg follows. Grateful for any pointers, ideas, workarounds, etc. Cheers, john [17179585.520000] ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== [17179585.520000] ivtv: version 0.4.2 (tagged release) loading [17179585.520000] ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.15.1-john K7 gcc-4.0 [17179585.520000] ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info between [17179585.520000] ivtv: the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines, along with [17179585.520000] ivtv: any module options, when mailing the ivtv-users mailinglist.
