First, I've been doing some recent reworking on my systems, especially with HD and digital sound and I am really impressed how far the HD side of myth has come over the past 6-9 months. Reliability and quality has really improved, between the newer Air2pc cards, new drivers, and newer myth versions. I used to run 30-50% failures somewhere in a 1hr recording. Now, I'm probably over 90% success. And with digital sound, reduced jumpyness using XvMC and other improvements, mythtv has gone from a by-the-way it can do HD with a little luck, to almost wanting nothing but HD.
Now for the questions, 1. As I had to reinstall my frontend to get the AV710 sound card to work, I noticed the single PVR250 card in the frontend now records with a much lower audio volume than the PVR500 dual card on the backend. Before the reinstall, there was no apparent difference. Both machines are running 2.6.15 kernels on Mandriva 2006. Is there any setting somewhere that would cause this card to record lower volumes now? I've checked the recording profiles, don't see anything obviously at fault. 2. I rewired my audio / video to route everything through a home theater AV receiver, including a basic vcr, dvd and myth. I also included an svideo cable from the receiver back to the pvr250 to allow the pvr to record from other sources. The question tho is how to set mythtv up to use this port, while still having its primary input as tuner. Do I need to set up a new "Source"? And what would that be? How to tell myth to record from that input, etc. Or is it some manual action, etc. Thanks for any help.
