I loaded the cx88_alsa module with "index=1" and now /proc/asound/cards shows the internal audio as card0 and the cx88 as card1. But I can't get any sound OUT of the card to play, or even record. > So now, for a more complete picture: > IIRC, the HDTV Wonder lacks any sort of audio out (via either an > internal loop back cable to the sound card or similarly an external out > on the riser).

It's not muted, the volume is up, but nothing. Why they didn't populate the soundcard out on the card I don't know, all the traces are there but no socket is provided. Is it likely that "pulseaudio" stuff is the problem? This is the first time I've used it with video, so I'm at least suspicious, but several people warned I can't just rip it out, I may have to drop back to several older things. -- Bill Davidsen "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- video4linux-list mailing list Unsubscribe mailto:video4linux-list-request@redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
