Most posts regarding the pvr state they they boot into windows to initialise the card then boot into linux and the sound works. I do this when I want sound on the pvr. I too would like to get it working properly. Neville Cobb wrote:

There's more to it for the pvr. Seems like the board is not being initialised at all. I have a pvr and the sound doesn't work under suse8. Take a look at the URL below, it looks as if there may be a project on the go to fix a lot of the pvr problems under linux. http://pvr.sourceforge.net/ --------------------------------------------------------------

Hi all,

i finally decided to spend some money on decent tv tuner (well it been in open box values at bestbuy - couldnt resist 50% price drop 8))... Got it working with Win box nicely, tested. Now i am sticking it into my SuSE machine.

with 7.3 i just couldnt make it work pretty much at all.. (it recognized, but bttv seems to fail constantly), i loaded live-eval of 8.0 , and got card working this morning - i.e i got video. But sound isnt. I could play any sound from that card, coudl listem mp3, so by the look of it - decoder of sound on Tv tuner itself getting some troubles..

I am trying to decide if upgrade to 8.0 will get me fully functional tuner, or not.. Is anyone here got that combination (wintv+sblive! (mp3 edition, if it helps)) working nicely?

Another question is - is there some programm for us cable that has functionality similar to nxtvepg? (i hate to go to titantv.com, b/c not only its slow - channels defenition there sucks)

TIA, Sergei
