I tried it early on in process, when I first stepped onto the TV yellow brick road. It didn't work, but then to be fair at that time I didn't have a clue about what I was trying to do. Now is a good time to give it another try. -- Regards Bill Fedora 13, Gnome 2.30.2 Evo.2.20.2, Emacs 23.2.1 -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

If you do an 'lsmod' is 'snd-seq-oss' present? Do you have /dev/dsp present? I have problems with TV because my provider serves a mashup of unencrypted HD digital using over the air frequencies, encrypted content requiring a cable box, and unencrypted NTSC using either the broadcast or cable settings for those. /etc/modules.d/dis-oss.conf is the disabled file, copy to oss.conf and uncomment the module loading, and see if that make lots of stuff work.

My video has returned in full glorious colour after my latest upgrade this morning. I spent a few hours trying to chase this problem down. I am curious, does anybody know (off the top of your head) what might have fixed the video?
