hi Simon<br><br>I had similar audio issues with Ubuntu 8.10 and a Hauppuage card recently - I resolved these by installing Paul Kendall's patched version of mythtv. I am currently travelling and dont have access to my myth machine to double check the details, but for some background see <a href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/mythtvnz/356269">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/mythtvnz/356269</a> - I simply changed my /etc/apt/sources.list file and then ran apt-get update / apt-get upgrade<br>
<br>Thanks<br><br>Gordon<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jan 16, 2009 at 12:33 PM, Simon Cantem <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:scantem@gmail.com">scantem@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Hi everyone,<br><br>I recently bought an Asus u3100 USB DVB-T tuner stick and I've been having a bit of trouble getting it running under Linux. I believe I have a fully functioning channels.conf file for Christchurch (I used w_scan to build it), and have come up against the following:<br>
<br>* I'm running ubuntu 8.10, everything's up to date<br>* The kernel finds it OK, it shows up in dmesg and an adapter is created in /dev/dvb<br>* It works under xine - sort of. I can get TV3 to work with both video and audio, but with the rest of the channels I only get video (I noticed TV3 uses a different audio codec).<br>
* I can't get it to work under mplayer (my player of choice), it seems to find it OK but I don't get any video or audio for any channels, and the window which usually pops up in X to display the video doesn't even appear. I get the following in the console:<br>
<br>Playing dvb://TV3.<br>dvb_tune Freq: 698000000<br>TS file format detected.<br>VIDEO MPEG2(pid=450) AUDIO MPA(pid=400) NO SUBS (yet)! PROGRAM N. 0<br><br>* If I do a dumpstream in mplayer or cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 to a ts file I can't play it in mplayer, I get "codec 0x50 not found" or if I turn off the audio "video stream not found"<br>
* I've tried both mplayer 1.0rc2 in the main ubuntu repo and the latest version out of subversion, both without success <br>* If I use Kaffeine it only finds TV3, but it plays that with both video and sound<br><br>Does anyone have any ideas on what I can try next, reading through the mailing list here and on the mplayer mailing list I can't find anyone who's come up against this before (which makes me think I'm missing something really simple or it's a very difficult problem!)<br>
<br>Thanks,<br><font color="#888888">Simon<br>
