I have been using Mythtv for about 4 months, very happily. I am using FC2 with a PVR-250, and onboard audio (Dell 400SC PowerEdge). I use a nVidia GeForce 4 MX 420 and Jarod's guide to build it. For some reason for the last three days I have ONLY ONE channel in which audio is not working. All the other channels currently work as normal. Never had a problem with it before in the last four months. You can hear some output if you turn the amp all the way up, but it is still soft, and crackily. The bizarre part is, that if I plug the cable input straight into my TV, the audio on this channel DOES work. So I know it's not the broadcast. The same problem happens if it is a recording or liveTV. I live on my own, so no one else has been messing with it. If it was any other channel, I wouldn't mind, but this is the channel I watch most. Has anyone else had this problem?? (obviously not because I searched the forum beforehand, but if anyone might have a lead on what's going on, I'd appreciate the help!!!)
ALSO, and this is less important because I've been living with it for the past four months anyway, but when I am watching liveTV and that window pops up saying that you have another recording that's about to start, no matter what option you pick, when the timer gets to zero, the frontend freezes. Still records, but I have to get my keyboard out to reset the frontend. What I do is just panic and exit to the menu screen before the timer gets to zero, but it is annoying when you're not paying attention and it freezes on you. I know this issue has been addressed before, but I have not seen a good solution for it. While I'm here I might as well lay all my problems upon your gracious ears....you see I just broke up with my girlfriend. Just kidding...my last and final question is that my Poweredge apparently MUST have a monitor attached to it to boot. This is extreemly annoying if the power goes out or something and I have to lug my old ctr out of the closet. You would think since this cpu is designed to be a server, this would not be a requirement, but who knows--it's a dell. The monitor does not have to be turned on, or even plugged in, but it must be attached. I tried just sticking a monitor cable into the 15-pin connector, but it doesn't work because I think it has to complete a circuit. I cannot find anyone who sells loopback plugs either. I also tried turning off the monitor requirement at the bios, but there is no such option. Any suggestions? Jim
