[Freevo-users] problems with freevo and Hauppauge PVR350 TV-Out (plus SPDIF audio)
Hi, I'm on my way building my own HTPC. As I won't be able to build the full-blown wish-system in the near future (DVB-S server in the cellar, streaming to the clients in the rooms), I started with a client. I have to begin with an analog tv I decided to use freevo as I like its overall concept better than the other solutions. As the system will be in the living room only the TV should be attached, no keyboard, commands only via IR. hardware: Shuttle SB61G2, P4 2.6, 1 GB, 160 GB HDD on-board Intel Extreme Graphic 2 with opt. TV-Out on-board sound i810 with SPDIF out Hauppauge PVR 350 software: knoppix 3.3 , kernel 2.4.22, linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1-pre16, ivtv-0.19, lirc-0.7.0pre2, alsa-driver-1.0.2a freevo 1.41 binary install I installed knoppix, compiled the kernel, added the modules and freevo. With the monitor attached to VGA I got nearly everything working, but freevo does not show up on the TV screen.

Re: [Freevo-users] problems with freevo and Hauppauge PVR350 TV-Out (plus SPDIF audio)
For your audio u need to set: MPLAYER_AO_DEV = 'alsa9:spdif' and use the: MPLAYER_ARGS_DEF -ac hwac3, switch (with the ,) to get ure spdif output working. If u have ure modules loaded correctly see alsa-project.org. Also set ure /dev/dsp right or use oss compatible module (snd-pcm-oss and snd-oss-mixer) That should fix your sound problems. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 02, 2004 11:51 PM Subject: [Freevo-users] problems with freevo and Hauppauge PVR350 TV-Out (plus SPDIF audio) Hi, I'm on my way building my own HTPC.
