Re: tvtime problems

Re: tvtime problems

Hi I am using tvtime but here is problem:

mixer: Can't open device /dev/mixer, mixer volume and mute unavailable.

xmms works just fine, when I change output to alsa.

How to change sound output in tvtime?

My sound is creative audigy + alsa + emu10k1

Re: tvtime problems

I don't believe you can change your output driver to alsa with tvtime.  You probably want to use oss emulation.

Re: tvtime problems

You're going to have to change the tvtime options.  The choice of different standards (I can't remember what they're called... formats?) is in the tvtime menu.  It's been a while since I used the application.

Re: tvtime problems

Why not try them to see if any of them work for you?

Re: tvtime problems

I don't know then, you'll probably have to do some research.
