[mythtv-users] WinTV GO Audio

[Matthew Carlin]

Hi,

I just completed a working MythTV install off of Red Hat 9 using Jarod's 
guide.  I have onboard sound but I'm using a soundblaster PCI which works 
just fine. I had an ATI TV Wonder card, but it performed poorly (and, as I 
have since figured out, it doesn't work with btaudio), so I gave it up, and 
bought a Hauppauge Win TV Go. The video is working nicely, but of course, 
now I find that it doesn't work with btaudio either.

I found this from searching the archives:

>Hauppauge WinTV Go. Video capture works with older versions of this card,
>which use a bt878-compatible chip; newer versions use a different chip
>(CX21881) that is not yet supported by V4L (a driver is under development;
>watch http//bytesex.org/cx88/ for news). Audio requires using a jumper to a
>sound card; btaudio does NOT work.

Ok, so, does that mean I can still get audio working on the card (ie, do I 
save a return trip to Fry's to exchange the sucker)? If so, can someone 
point me to information about how to do so? I searched the list for posts 
about using a jumper for the card, but I couldn't find any.

One more question/suggestion: Did I miss a warning somewhere about some bt 
based V4L cards not working with btaudio? If not, could someone put such a 
warning on the mythtv site, or in one of the guides? (I only found it out 
incidentally, after several days of reading the archives to solve other 
problems)

Thanks much,
Matt Carlin
