Hi Michael
Do you mind if I keep banging away at this with your off-list
assistance? I will not be offended if you respond that this issue
should remain on-list or that you have given up on my particular
problem.
It's better to keep it on the public list, so other users can
read it and possibly add comments.

Your onboard audio doeso have 'Line' (analog audio input), but it's not
connected with your tv card.

Why? This is the "sample output volume". Unlike music players,
tvtime doesn't output any samples.

Why do you insist on avoiding mplayer like the plague? It's available
for Fedora at
rpmfusion.org, and /dev/video1 ought to be of primary
interest. [Unless you want to look at mythtv instead.]
