this is all completely irrelevant to the question. |

|

The PVR-150 muxes the audio and video into an mpeg stream. |
41 |
|
42 |
When using "composite in" the sound should be coming in the "line in" |
43 |
|
44 |
However your driver may need to be switched to the right device, use ivtvctl |
45 |
|
46 |
ivtvctl -A - lists the audio inputs |
47 |
ivtvctl -Q - tells which one it is switched to now |
48 |
ivtvctl -qn - switches to input n |
