I've been using my system for a few months now.  After finally fixing
the video quality, the recordings timing got goofy on me.  An hour
long show recorded would show that it was an hour and a half or
longer...but actually play the hour (less commercials : )  So I
figured before mailing the list, I'd make sure everything was upgraded
and give it a reboot.  Now, I suddenly have no sound!!!  I'm pretty
sure its a config that got screwed up somewhere, but I don't know
where to look.  Recordings and live tv have the same problem, even
recordings that were made previously that i've seen with sound!!!

Please help!!  Let me know what I should post info wise here, and I'll
be more than happy to.

System is FC1, running 2 PVR-250's, and lots of old hardware, but it
all worked before!!

Thanks in advance,
Andy



I realize this probably isn't the right list for this now, but after
more digging around with the system today, it appears that my whole
install is pretty screwed up.  The hat menu doesn't have any entries
in it, and kcontrol has nothing in it for me to modify.  I'm not sure
what happened, but I'd be happy to post any logs or send this to a
different list if someone could just point me in the right direction!!

Thanks,
Andy


This sounds a lot like some of the problems I've had. The KDE menus came back on their own after a restart, so I have no idea if I actually had to do something to fix them. The no-sound issue turned out to be that the new ivtv driver needs a special version of the msp3400 driver named msp3400-ivtv. Put:


        alias msp3400 msp3400-ivtv

in your modules.conf and check the logs for 'msp34xx: ivtv version'. (I can't access my mythtv box right now, so I can't check for the exact message.)

Oh wait, I just noticed that you said that even old recording has no sound. You probably have some other sound problem then -- I was getting some recordings with sound and some without.

Hmm... I guess I don't have anything helpful to add afterall. Sorry about that. But you'll need that alias thing once you get your other problems figured out.

Good luck.
