    Is the tv card doing analog, stereo digital? That may do it. Check the input selector too.

    I am not really sure. I'm using tvtime. Since xawtv is not working. But I have stereo selected not sure if its digital and analog. In windows sound works ok.

    hmm, in that case is their a configuration inside the app that would have audio output levels? It seems like the settings on the reciever/stereo and the connection are correct. It seems like this is a software issue.

    tvtime only gives me option for SAP-Stereo-Mono.
    What other good tv are out there besides xawtv?
