The TV card is fine, all that's changed is upgrading to mga2. > Maybe the input selector of the sound card is set to microphone. How would you check/change that? Why would it get messed up all of a sudden? > Why are you using OSS instead of alsa directly? That's what mencoder uses. It should work fine. > Try to get things working with alsamixer if aumix doesn't work... aumix seems to be working fine, it still sees the IGain channel and can set it just fine. I think something else is wrong.
