I tried all the options mentioned and I don't have sound yet. By the way, I always see the msp3400 module as unused in the lsmod list. There isn't any ffmpeg in the Redhat9 CDs, so I couldn't test: ffmpeg -ad /dev/dsp2 -vd /dev/video0 testme.mpg I think I have all the connectors plugged in the right place, but it might help to get some sound from the card, even if it is not from a TV channel, so I can be sure that the problems are with the configuration, and not with the connections. Any guess? About the configuration posted some months ago: alias char-major-89 i2c-dev options i2c-core i2c_debug=0 options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1 alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 bttv options bttv card=6 audiomux=0x0e,0x04,0x08,0x04,0 gpiomask=0x0f options tuner debug=0 type=2 And comparing with some of the suggestions, I would like to know how could I load the required modules via modprobe, so I can try with combinations of (modprobe <--> rmmod) without having to reboot. Which should be the sequence of modprobe's? And then how to rmmod to try again with something different?
