Re: No audio during Live tv or recorded tv via FTA box/tuner..?



OK, I will try that again.. I thought I had already but perhaps mis-config's
it.. Right now the Sat box is feeding the TV directly and I get full sound,
etc.. However, there is not two sets of outs on the sat box only one so what
is your idea of connecting everything..? Should I run the Audio out to the
PC, then bank on the ATi Radeon Vid card to push the audio back to the TV via
DVI-HDMI output/input...? or will the PC push the audio out to the Denon
Recvr that I have it going through currently (mini-jack to RCA L/R connected
to the VDP input) and the rest will just take care of itself..?

Thanks for your help BTW.. - A.J.

Typically, when using a set-top-box (STB) you connect separate video
(RCA/S-Video/etc.) and audio (L/R RCA) connections. Some people do use and
then tune the TV or Media Center to channel 3/4/etc. and the STB changes
channels. It is possible that the coax out is only sending video, so you
might try connecting the audio out to the audio input on the tuner.

BTW, it is unlikely that you were getting digital cable directly in the past
if you were directly connected (no box) to the cable connection. It has only
been in the last year or so that PC makers have released specialized Media
Center systems that have a cable-card tuner; this allows direct connection
to a digital source by renting a cable card from your provider.

Currently that is the only way to receive all the digital content through
cable. You can receive Over The Air digital with an antenna and some digital
card will receive unencrypted digital signals (Clear QAM) through coax, but
generally those are only a small portion of the digital offerings. For
instance, here in Orlando, if I plug in a Clear QAM tuner to Bright House
(Time-Warner), it finds several hundred stations, but only about 35 can be
viewed, the rest are locked.

Hi James,

Directly with Coax... I can preview the guide (sees 14 days out), set
recordings and it does record but the sound issue is still got me...???

How is your cable source connected to the tuner card now? s-video,

Hi Curious,

Your answer was cut-off but I get it... Yes, there was a change and now
I
think I have figured out what I need to do just need some clarification
from
someone.... If I understand my original Tuner card (Sony Vaio
VGC-RA826)
it
came with was only designed to pick up and complety decode Digital TV
such
as
coming straight from a cable source, i.e. (comcast, etc) It will not
work
with FTA boxes like (Nfusion, Sonicview, Viewsat)... If that is
correct,
then
what I need is a tuner card that will work with the FTA boxes, decode
HD
with
Audio and Video... If anyone knows of a card out there like that,
please
drop
a line....

My currecnt situation still exists when I turn on MCE and go to Live
TV..
I
still get no Audio perhaps because the tuner card is unable to decode
that
portion...? As for my prior recordings, I checked the dates of them and
it
was back in 2006 when I was connected to digital cable thus getting
full
Audio/Video... Again, if anyone out there is going thru the same
ordeal,
please share what is working for you as I want to be able to record
using
MCE
rather than having to go buy or obtain a different system...

Hi All,

After spending hours trying to figure this out I gave in and decided
to
put
the question out there.. I read the subject matter on connecting
your
MCE
2005 pc to your AV reciever and it works fine for previously
recorded
DVD's
that I had on file and for other tv recording done in the past...
After
moving everything over to a new 1 TB hd, I can't get any sound when
watching
live tv or a program I recorded yesterday, but yet all of the prior
recordings play fine..? I have changed and update drivers and rolled
them
back but now change.. I have an older Denon avr 610 that handles
Dolby,
dts,
etc.. My preloaded Intervideo Windvd 5 works and the codec works..
The
sound
is handled on the board chip REAltek (Sony Vaio VCG-RA826G model
with
Pentium 4HT. I also have a FTA sat box and the MCE works fine there
as
well,
provides the guide 14 days out, lets me select recordings, etc..
just
no
audio when played back.. I have now just finished downloading the
Nividia
deluxe $49.99 30 day trial version and I went into the MCE
Settings>dvd>Audio section and I saw that I had new options and was
going
to
set it on reciever when it locked up..?
