No sound on an HD-3000 recording happens on my system, too. It matches
yours, but on Fedora Core 3. I tracked all my "no-sound" events to IOBOUND
entries in the backend log. The system was deleting (AutoExpiring) old, huge
HDTV recordings while the HD-3000 was making new recordings. Could this be
happening on your system? A look at the backend log might shed some light on
"no-sound" recordings.

Now, a question about your second paragraph: How do you tune subchannels? On
my MythTV system (CVS from last June), all I have is individual channels.
Yes, they are numbered 91, 92 - for channel 9 subchannel 1, etc., but I
can't tune them in two steps. I always have to select a single channel.

Could you elaborate a bit about how you specify subchannels? Is this a new
feature in the latest SVN version(s) of MythTV? Thanks.
