Hi Michael,

I have slowly worked through the items you suggest.  I can confirm that
Me TV has streams and shows 0: eng (MPEG 4).  I then went into changing
the audio driver by selecting each of the options away from ALSA on the
drop down list.  I did not restart Me-Tv each time I made a selection,
however, I hope this was that okay?  This did not result in fixing the
sound issue.  As an aside, I'm aware closing Me TV from the X does not
actually stop Me TV running, what's the best way to do this without
re-booting?  As this made no difference, I copied across the xine config
file as you suggested in terminal.  Now that did make a difference, as
when I restarted Me Tv there was a screech sound for a milli second or
so as it started, but then, nothing.  I've popped into the file to set
the audio mixer to "Hardware" and find that doing so isn't obvious.  I
have copied the text lines from the file in the hope you can let me know
the right syntax to use to make the change.   I'm aware once I've made
the change, I'll need to uncomment the line to actually make it work.

# Audio mixer control method
# { Sound card  Software }, default: 0
#gui.audio_mixer_method:Sound card

Looking forward to your reply.

Owen
