[12:33] <scout1340793703> ciao a tutti!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[20:23] <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
[20:24] <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?
[20:26] <rhpot1991> qwebirc94327: most likely depends on your tv/receiver
[20:26] <rhpot1991> and if it can take sound from one and video from another
[20:32] <qwebirc94327> I have a seperate receiver I'm using for surround sound. And I have a monitor connected for the picture.
[20:33] <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
[20:34] <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
[20:36] <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
[20:37] <rhpot1991> with hdmi you want to make sure the device isn't muted in alsa-mixer too
[20:39] <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
[20:40] <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
[20:41] <rhpot1991> ya not sure how ati sound works
[20:42] <qwebirc94327> How to enable fglrx and nvidia in xorg.conf? I think this will be the answer
[20:44] <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
[20:45] <qwebirc94327> yeah not good plan eh?
[20:46] <qwebirc94327> Well if you think its still possible I'm gonna keep trying. I refuse to resort to windows!
[20:48] <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
[20:49] <qwebirc94327> Is there anyway to seperate the nvidia audio drivers?
