Post subject:  Still messing around with sound

Ok, I thought I followed all of the tips for getting digital out to work for all sound sources.

MythDVD works like a champ. No problems there.

MythMusic has no sound out - but here is the odd thing: it doesn't look like it is even trying to play an MP3. When I try to play from the GUI it appears to hang for a few seconds (sometimes up to about 20) and does not play the music. The visualizations are not running, so I know it is not a volume issue.

Watching TV is the same. No sound (but video) and it can hang when I try to change the channel.

I have set dsp_map and adsp_map to my digital source and seem to have followed all of the setup instructions - but it is the hanging that seems to be causing some of the problems and I can't figure out how to track that one down.

Is there a straightforward way to just punt again (I have mucked with the configs so much I fogot most of the steps I have tried in the process) and put the sound back to the 2-channel out? If not, can anyone give a pointer as to what is causing MythMusic to seem to hang and not attempt playing any music?

brianmat,
You did not provide any information about the hardware you are trying to get this to work on. If it is the nforce2 mobo, then I can help you. The steps found in this topic really do work: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1829

I can understand the frustration, but with my nforce2 board, I have reinstalled about 6 times now, each time I go back through the steps one by one and it all works perfectly. I keep screwing other things up, so that is why I keep reinstalling. Post exactly what the problem is, and we can try and help. I have audio working in everything but the games.

Well, the problem is this:

I can run music through dsp and DVDs thought ADSP (configured for digital) but I get nothing from TV. Actually, when I watch TV the video is jerky as all get out.

If I get the TV sound working, DVDs are either no sound or this awful buzzing/thumping sound.

What exactly should I post to help debug this? I would be happy to generate any outputs that would work in troubleshooting, but for the moment I have resigned myself to using only MythMusic and MythDVD.

I am using a TV2000 tuner with an integrated mobo (Intel i840 sound). Like I said, I can get 2 out of 3 items working at at time, but not all 3.

Digital works like a champ on DVDs and music sounds great. Once I get the TV up and running this thing will be rocking.
