Well so this is the question, I had a couple of different TV tuners and
neither of them could get me any sound at all. It is not that the sound card
was not working, because I have every whistle and chime that Vista provides
me with, it is that when I select the option to see TV signal, it does not
sound anything, even when the visual quality of the image is outstanding.
The tuner I am talking about now is a USB device, so it has no plugs to put
anything on it, like a sound cable to the sound card, only the antenna cable
one. This problem happens on the Vista Media Center.
My rig:
AMD X2 4200+
Asus A8N SLI
2Gb DDR KINGSTON VALUE RAM
XFX 8800 GTS 320Mb
Creative X-Fi Extreme Music
PCTV Hybrid Tuner Kit for Vista (Vista Certified)
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit
Thanks for everything in advance.
Vittorio

The sound for your TV program does not come from the tuner card it comes
from the normal sound card output from your computer.
The sound connection on a tuner card is for inputting sound from an STB when
you use S-Video input.

Well, yes, it might be as you say, but the problm is that it is a usb device
with no other connection but the antenna and the USB to plug on the computer.
So what should I do?
Thanks!

You use the sound out from your pc's sound card as I tried to explain to you
before. The sound from the antenna connection is connected to your PC and
it is output from your PC not from your USB tuner.

So then, are you telling me that if I am using a sound card other than the
integrated motherboard soundcard, I will get no sound through a USB tv
tunner? That seems kind of logical really, but people like Creative would not
be very happy with that. Seriously, there has to be another solution for the
problem.
Thanks anyway JW.

If you are using a creative sound card then that is what I mean by your PC
sound card. You might check your mixer settings to be sure that sound
coming in through you TV tuner is not being muted.
