My DELL Inspiron 6000 with AverMedia AverTV Hybrid+FM Cardbus stopped sending
sound from Media Center the other day. I can play music, Youtube etc and I
hear all Windoms sounds, clicking etc. It's just live-TV or recorded-TV that
cannot play sound. My machine is fully updated and got the latest for sound
card and MCE. I've checked the cable, and my stationery DVB-T decoder says
the signals from all MUXs at the broadcasting compane are very strong & high
quality. The picture in MCE is good. Any ideas on where i might look? The
settings in MCE isn´t that detailed... Regards Bjorn

Do I understand that only TV sound does not work in MC and that you do get
sound when you play a DVD in Media Center?

Thanks for your interest. Unfortunately, I cant test that since after seeing
your reply I started the PC after some days shutdown and it works!! Haven't
done anything
with since last time when it didn't work.
I had made several reboots earlier but with no success.
Any ideas on what this can be?

Sorry no ideas except maybe your PC was overheating from lack of
ventilation.

I just found a fix for my problem, which might be the same one you're having.

I have a Dell computer with Windows XP Media Center. My problem was that I
could not hear sound while playing Recorded TV using Media Center, Windows
Media Player, etc.

After doing some research, I found that the Cyberlink Power DVD 7.0 software
that Dell supplied via cd-rom with my computer caused the problem.

I uninstalled this version, and installed Cyberlink Power DVD 5.7 (which I
fortunately had sitting around the house). Voila - I've got sound when
viewing recoreded tv! I then used the online update within the Power DVD
program to upgrade to the most recent version.

Hope this helps someone.

To my post above, I want to add that Cyberlink Power DVD 7.0...... DID allow
me to hear sound on my office computer which recorded the live TV. The
problem occurred when I used my family room computer (which had the Cyberlink
Power DVD 7.0) to try and watch a TV show that was recorded on my office
computer.
