 Have you brought up a mixer for your sound card and ENABLED the Line-in
 port?
 
 It may be off by default.

Everything except "MIC" is higher than 0% in "alsamixer".

 Note that with some of the original Brooktree drivers there was a reported
 problem wherein the TV tuner card's audio output was not being enabled or
 reset.
 
 Since the card comes up with audio output OFF, this can be problematic.

How can I change it or make it out?

You might want to search the Redhat archives on this subject.

Several months ago I was involved in a discussion about this very subject.

Someone came up with a patch to the BTTV driver to enable the Tuner card's
audio output upon initialization...

Reports were that this solved the problem.

I have not tested this myself.

  Can anyone tell me what files, and where they are to setup the
  WinTV?  I know it is here somewhere, and I have looked everywhere in
  the file structure, but to no avail.  Where is it, and how to set
  up?  I am running V7 and KDE.   Thanks for your help.  So much to
  learn, so little time. 
  
  Regards,
  Gary

  Gary,
   You'll need something like KwinTV that I downloaded from Linuxberg.
   You'll also need the drivers for your card.  I have hauppauge WinTV
   and use the BTTV drivers and you can learn about how to configure
   and get it all up an running at the BTTV Howto at www.linuxdoc.org.

I have installed my hauppauge WinTV but I have no Sound. I have
connected the "line out" of the TV-card with the "line in" of the
soundcard but I dont get sound. My sondcard is a Soundblaster Live
(emu10k1).
Any ideas to get it work?
