I have a tuner card working perfectly with tvtime, but I can't get audio out of it in mplayer or mencoder ; I can only get the picture. I have tried different commands like "gmplayer -tv driver=v4l2:norm=pal-m:channel=5 tv://". I have already googled a lot and would appreciate some help. Some technical information: Distro: latest gentoo mplayer version: mplayer-1.0.20060217 kernel compiled whithout oss emulation The card is a Pixelview Playtv (don't know which exact model). Output of lspci: 00:0b.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11) 00:0b.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11) 00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10) I use with the module bttv ; the parameters to bttv are "card=37 tuner=43". The audio output of the card is connected to the line in of the sound card. -- Software is like sex: it is better when it is free. --Linus Torvalds
