Feed the output of the 350 to the line in of your sound card and make sure the line in volume is turned off and that it isn't muted. > > My understanding of using the PVR350 for tv output > is that mpeg is fed > into /dev/video16 by mythtv and the menu system and > mplayer output > (mythvideo) uses the frame buffer interface.

The Programe guide problem is caused because this uses X to then access the frame buffer and the code switches alpha around to make this happen and timeing issues cause it to go wrong sometimes. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
