[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1103067, member: 82144"] Okay. First, I think you can (and should) ignore the AC3/MPEG audio thing. Every single attempt to view a channel or recording in your previous log files was for h.264 video and [B]AAC[/B] audio. In other words, if you're going to look at codec settings then focus on the AAC codec setting. Ignore the AC3/MPEG audio setting - it doesn't have any effect when everything you're trying to play/view has AAC audio. With that established, let's look at what you've tried for that AAC audio setting... In your previous log files only the last channel change was performed with codec preferences set (ArcSoft Video Decoder and MONOGRAM AAC Decoder). All other attempts used system default codecs, which in your case happen to be Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder and Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoder. So, I can see you've tried Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoder and MONOGRAM AAC Decoder, and I can take your word that you've tried ArcSoft Audio Decoder HD, and LAV. To have tried all of them and still not get any audio is extremely unusual. I think it is time to check the basics and be logical. Please can you do the following tests... [B]TEST 1[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Open MediaPortal. [*]Press alt + enter to switch to windowed mode (where you can see the desktop). [*]Start playing live TV. [*]Press the m key to toggle mute on/off. If that does not help... [*]Press the +/= key to increase volume. If that does not help... [*]Open the Windows audio mixer from the Windows system tray. [*]Check the MediaPortal application volume control is [B]not [/B]muted, and volume is set to a reasonable level. [/LIST] [B]TEST 2[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Make a short recording of something with MP TV Server. Anything. It doesn't matter as long as it has audio. [*]Attempt to play that recording in MediaPortal. Assumed result is that audio won't be heard. [*]Attempt to play that recording in any other application. VLC, Hauppauge Capture - it doesn't particularly matter. Expected result is that audio [B]is[/B] heard, which would confirm that you should be getting audio in MediaPortal. If audio is not heard then we know there is a problem with your channel configuration in TV Server. [/LIST] [B] TEST 3[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Make a short recording of something with Hauppauge Capture. Anything. It doesn't matter as long as it has audio. [*]Attempt to play that recording in MediaPortal. Assumed result is that audio won't be heard. [*]Attempt to play that recording in any other application. VLC, Hauppauge Capture - it doesn't particularly matter. Expected result is that audio [B]is[/B] heard, which would confirm that you should be getting audio in MediaPortal. If audio is not heard then we know there is a problem with MediaPortal configuration. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
