Post subject:  Installation Issues with 6.0.2

First of all - Thanks for all the hard work everyone on R6, it looks amazing. I am in the process of making the switch from R5F27, with my system that was very similar to the Dragon V1.

Anyhow, I am having two issues which are probably very minor. The first issue is that I cannot get the sound to work. I am the MSI K8 Neo 4-F motherboard (same as Dragon). In R5F27, I successful used a the Chaintec AV-710 card. After reading issues about this card, I decided to remove it and enable onboard sound in the Bios before doing the install.

In the Linhes Configuration>Audio Settings menu, the onboard sound card is recognized as the NVIDIA CK804 with (hw:0,2). I have the type set to digital, and have attempted to test the ALSA Audio Settings (Nothing Happens), and then clicked on Load ASLA driver, finish.

In the Mythtv Configuration>Setup>General, I have tried All possible ALSA Audio Output device options, including - ALSA:hw:0,2, ALSA:default, ALSA:spdif, ALSA:surround51, ALSA:digital, dev/adsp, and dev/sound/adsp.

Nothing is working. Any help or advice would be great. Alternatively, if you know how to get the Chaintec AV-710 to work with R6, that would be just as helpful too. I had the same results when I tried with the AV-710.


The next item is the remote control. I have the one4All URC-6131, which happens to be one of the preset remote options during setup. I have a serial IR reciever, and no blaster. I cannot get the remote to work. Do I need to program the remote with a certain device code? Do I need to modify some lirc file with certain input information? Any help would be great.

Thanks.

For the audio you may want to check these threads out, some useful info for troubleshooting:

In trying to get my onboard audio over HDMI working in R6, I discovered that I could do it using OSS but not ALSA. Thanks to a tidbit in one of the above threads, I found I could use ALSA after unmuting all of my digital channels in alsamixer.
