Hi. I've similar configuration but I use tvtime patched by Markus Rechberger to support HVR's audio directly. Tvtime gives better video quality and requires less cpu. It can be found here: http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/tvtime I don't know if the changes were pushed upstream (it seems that the development of tvtime stopped in 2005).

Once I got it working I set up a launcher with the entire command string so that all I had to do is hit the button on my desktop to show TV. The command I am using is: > > mplayer -vo xv tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:alsa:immediatemode=0:adevice=hw.1,0:norm=ntsc:chanlist=us-cable:channel=3 > > This gives me a simple window tuned to NTSC channel three. I change the channel on my cable box and change the volume with either the computer or cable box or both. -- Talkers are no good doers. http://greblus.net/djangoblog/ _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
