Looking at the ivtv website did say this: |

"Use the recommended firmware |

|
| 22 |
* In particular, if you are experiencing sound problems then first |
| 23 |
make sure you are using the correct audio firmware. It is a known |
| 24 |
problem with older versions that the audio standard is detected but |
| 25 |
remains muted. It seems to be fixed with the latest firmware. " |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
How you tell whether the firmware you have is "correct" ? There are some checksums here: |

(Although I just checked mine, they do not match whats on the website, |
| 32 |
but they work fine??) |

It was only a suggestion to eliminate the possibilty of the cable or |
| 49 |
plugs being faulty. |
