I don't know what your general problem is. But I can tell you that LFE stands for "Low Frequency Effects" and refers to the subwoofer or ".1" channel in 5.1 or 7.1 audio configuration. I use the regular Ubuntu Pulseaudio configuration on my desktop and laptop, which work fine, but I've always used MythTV with straight ALSA. -- Ubuntu-mythtv mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mythtv
