I have the problem too. If I open the playback control window from the control panel... not the Creative Soundmixer from my Soundblaster card... the Wave volume is all the way down... not muted... just down. I can launch Live TV and increasing the wave volume works fine... However, if I leave the playback control window up, exit Live TV and then relaunch Live TV, there is no sound. Although the bar for the wave volume does not move, if I simply touch it, the sound comes back. Very strange. Any suggestions or am I out of luck? I installed the Soundblaster 24bit Live soundcard and I'm running it on a Dell Dimension 3000 with the integrated soundcard. I'm not sure how to disable the integrated soundcard.
I forgot to mention, before I bought the Soundblaster card, I was having the exact same issue with my integrated soundcard. Everything else works fine.
Thanks for your suggestion, Sub. It's sorted out the main problem.
I was having exactly the same problems as described by skkrumwiede. I'm now getting the problem back again if I try to fast forward through a recording. When I go back to playing it at the normal speed, I've lost the sound again. Bring up a sound mixer (either SB Surround mixer or the standard MS volume control) and just touch the Wave slider and the sound comes back. If I set GB-PVR to use short skip instead of ff/rew then there's no problem.
This problem has only happened since downloading and installing the latest version of GB-PVR last night (Removed the old version & cleaned out the registry before installing the new version and reconfigured everything - no settings left over from previous setup.)
I'm running an ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe nForce2 mobo, Athlon XP 3200 (barton), Leadtek GF4 ti4200 graphics card, Hauppauge Nova-T USB2, SB Audigy soundcard and WinXP Home (SP2). Apart from the IDE drivers, everything is fully up to date & patched.
Apart from this minor issue with the sound, so far I like the improvements I've seen in the new version.
