Match the colors.
As I mentioned above, I am connecting my PVR-350 to my TV via an RF converter. I don't think my TV was made in the last 5 years. > As for the blank TV display, first make sure your video drivers are > properly installed (seems like you've done this) then go into > $mythtv-setup -> capture cards and set up your capture card.

I did set up my capture card, so I'm not sure what else to do from there. And NTSC is selected, since I am in the U.S. Now on the "Input connections" setup option, I have several options listed: Composite 0-4, Tuner 0, and S-Video 0-3. Does that make any difference? I have Composite 0 selected, and Composite 0 is listed as the default input on my capture card. I have no idea what these mean, so I left them at their defaults. > Hope my comments are helpful. > -Tom > > Bill Baker wrote: > > >On Mon, 2006-01-23 at 23:04 -0500, Tim wrote: > > > > > >>1) no. your tv has no idea what channel your mythtv tuner is on. your tv > >>has no info on the sound of your recordings. you can send the sound from > >>your mythtv box to your tv speakers, but you will need a sound card (pvr-350 > >>may export sound). > >> > >> > > > >Do you know how I can send the sound from my mythtv box to my TV > >speakers? > > > > > > > >>2) no. it sounds like a setup/channel tuning issue. > >> > >> > > > >Do you/anyone else have any idea on how to correct this?
