[mythtv-users] Sound from DVD and Transcoded Recordings Doesn't Work

Arg!!!

I'm backwards today...let me try again...

The PVR-350 is a LINE-IN...not a LINE-OUT.  So I thought if I fed the
line-out of the Audigy card into the line-in of the PVR it would work.  But
it does not seem to.  So that's where I am now...  Maybe if I didn't stay up
so late working on this I would have said it correct the first time.

Thanks,
Matt
