We can deduce this does not come from the decompression algorithm since it is the same whether the TV input or the s-video input is selected. I suspect a tda9887/saa7113 interface problem but just my intuition. As it works under windows, can you do an usbsnoop (http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Usbsnoop) Just open the TV application, let it tune the channel and stop the application immediately in order to have a minimal capture file. For the audio over USB, in the ancient times I developed a audio extension for usbvision. I don't even know what I did from it. I can look for it if you want. I will need to sweep the dust (compilation errors and so on) but should work. P.S.: this thread is really hard to follow now... please reply under my answer so that we will be able to read that again :) > -----Original Message----- > From: video4linux-list-bounces@redhat.com > [mailto:video4linux-list-bounces@redhat.com] On Behalf Of Chris Grove > Sent: 30 November 2008 15:44 > To: 'Thierry Merle' > Cc: video4linux-list@redhat.com > Subject: RE: Hauppauge WinTV USB Model 566 PAL-I > > Hi, > Yes I am using the external audio, mainly because I haven't got a clue how > to get the audio via USB to work.
