[mythtv-users] Sound issue over firewire

[Nathan Carlson]

Hi,

I just replaced my cable box with an Scientific Atlanta RNG150 HD box. I
followed the recommendations for this box from
here<http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Firewire_Cable_Box_Compatibility>.
I am able to get video fine, but all I get is a crackling for audio. I
compiled firewire_tester and it just fails on both p2p and broadcast. It
seems that if I am able to get video it shouldn't be failing. I have also
tried setting p2p_connections=1, but no luck. Here is what I get from
plugreport and firewire_tester:


nathan at mythbox:~$ plugreport
Host Adapter 0

iMPR n_plugs=1, data_rate=2

Thanks in advance for any help, and let me know if you need any additional
info.

Thanks,
