Hello. I have a new Mythtv setup for recording
video. Everything is working, but I am having problems with the audio
playback. Specifically, on playback the audio sounds “graveley,”
i.e. there are very frequent, rapid, short drop-outs. This happens not
only when I play back via Mythtv, but also when I play the mpeg via the Totem
movie player in Gnome. To rule out the possibility that the capture device (HDPVR)
is defective, I copied the mpeg file onto a windoze machine and played it, and
the audio sounds fine. To rule out some problem with the audio hardware,
I played a CD on the linux box, which also sounds fine. Mythtv is configured to use ALSA:front for output. I
don’t know what Totem uses. The hardware is the onboard audio on a
Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R mobo. It’s got an Intel chipset (ICH10) and
the manual says it uses a Realtek ALC889A codec. The system is a new FC12
build. I ran the ALSA Audio Debug and the output is below. Any advice on how to fix this problem would be greatly
appreciated. TIA…Steve ALSA Audio Debug v0.1.0 - Fri Jan 22 15:09:31 MST 2010 http://alsa.opensrc.org/aadebug http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt Kernel ---------------------------------------------------- Linux mythtv 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jan 18
