| qwebirc94327 | I was wanting to know if its possible to have the display coming from one graphics card and the sound from another. I have been trying to get it to work but with no luck. Before I try further I thought I might ask if its even possible with mythbuntu | 20:23 |
| qwebirc94327 | The display is DVI monitor (HDCP compatible) connected to ATI card and I wanted the integrated nvidia card to provide the sound via hdmi | 20:24 |
| qwebirc94327 | Is it theoretically possible? Or am wasting my time? | 20:24 |
| rhpot1991 | qwebirc94327: most likely depends on your tv/receiver | 20:26 |
| rhpot1991 | and if it can take sound from one and video from another | 20:26 |
| qwebirc94327 | I have a seperate receiver I'm using for surround sound. And I have a monitor connected for the picture. | 20:32 |
| qwebirc94327 | The monitor only has DVI input. So is connected to ATI discrete graphics card | 20:33 |
| qwebirc94327 | (HD6450) | 20:33 |
| qwebirc94327 | the chipset of motherboard has 9400m integrated graphics with nvidia hdmi output | 20:33 |
| qwebirc94327 | Having messed around with it for half a day I get the feeling that it is something to do with X | 20:34 |
| qwebirc94327 | and the xorg.conf | 20:34 |
| rhpot1991 | qwebirc94327: should be able to do your x out of the dvi | 20:36 |
| rhpot1991 | and then in mythtv you'll need to setup the audio device | 20:36 |
| rhpot1991 | and figure out which one corresponds with your onboard hdmi | 20:36 |
| rhpot1991 | and just run your wires accordingly | 20:36 |
| rhpot1991 | with hdmi you want to make sure the device isn't muted in alsa-mixer too | 20:37 |
| qwebirc94327 | I can get a picture fine from the dvi (amd HD6450) connection | 20:39 |
| qwebirc94327 | I can also get sound from the optical cable | 20:39 |
| qwebirc94327 | in the alsa mixer everything is unmuted and turned high | 20:39 |
| qwebirc94327 | I think it is something to do with the fact that the x server is running the fglrx driver. So even if nvidia,hdmi (hw0,3) is chosen in mythtv no sound comes outd | 20:40 |
| rhpot1991 | ya not sure how ati sound works | 20:41 |
| qwebirc94327 | How to enable fglrx and nvidia in xorg.conf? I think this will be the answer | 20:42 |
| qwebirc94327 | If it is at all possible! | 20:44 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc94327, I've heard of people doing it | 20:44 |
| tgm4883 | I've not done it though | 20:44 |
| rhpot1991 | in theory is feasable | 20:44 |
| rhpot1991 | your mixing of ati and nvidia is prob gonna be rough | 20:44 |
| qwebirc94327 | yeah not good plan eh? | 20:45 |
| qwebirc94327 | Well if you think its still possible I'm gonna keep trying. I refuse to resort to windows! | 20:46 |
| rhpot1991 | qwebirc94327: I'd question why you are using ati at all | 20:48 |
| qwebirc94327 | Been reading loads online and I think even mixing nvidia and ati in windows is causing people headaches | 20:48 |
| qwebirc94327 | Is there anyway to seperate the nvidia audio drivers? | 20:49 |
