1 Check your firmware versions

2. How good is your TV signal

3. Check you have the correct IVTV options. Some cards will work with two
different tuner types which confuses things.

The main reason for your issue is the audio driver getting confused about
which NICAM carrier we have in NZ. If the Nicam carrier is a little low i=
n
your area can you disable it to only get mono audio?

Which build of Knoppmyth have you gone for R5B7 or R5C7?
