Strange problem with pvr-250 and sage tv

[cwg1]

I have a strange problem, I'm using sagetv , a ivac16 pvr-250 and pinnacle showcenter media receiver.

If I record a show through the Svideo/ line-in I can play the mpg on the pc but the mpg that gets streamed to the media reciever has no sound.

If I record through the tuner, the audio is fine.

I can see no difference in the mpeg generated by the two processes, bitrates look the same using vcdeasy audio analyser tool.

Equally strange, is that the showcenter has 2 audio outputs, one goes to the tv the other to the stereo. I CAN get the sound from the stereo reciever.
THIS is very Very wierd.

Audio is connected to line-in on pvr250. nice try first thing I checked. This one is not going to be easy to solve, I stayed up until 1:00am trying all kind of things last night.

Checked eveything obvious.

Please read entire post:

Audio plays fine under following conditions:

1) played from pc
2) recorded from tuner
3) through audio reciever connected to showcenter, Thats the strangest one. (their both rca inputs, not spif or digital) . Maybe the receiver can handle a higher range.

So if I under you rigth the clip will playback fine using the tuner recording on both output on the showcenter but the clip that are recorder from S/Video only work over stereo reciever output is that rigth?.

Strange but true... Not sure what the significance is between the tv and the stereo. analyser says the audio is standard, mpeg layer 2. 384k

What I need to figure out is what is the difference in the way the hauppage card creates the mpeg file.

try lower audio bitrate see what happing
