I have a FlyVideo2000 tv tuner,
with tvtime, i can see the picture, but i can't hear the sound.
Looks like the sound module isn't activated, because all volume level is maximum. What should i do?
You misunderstood, have you tried connecting anything else to line-in to see if you get sound? If you can't get sound from anything else though line-in, it is a soundcard problem, if you can, it is a TV card problem.

Oh, that's.
Anything's right when using FlyVideo TVR application on windoze.
But, the sound doesn't out when using tvtime on Ubuntu.
I have trying using the Kplayer in Slax, but the problem is definitely the same.
Is the problem on the soundcard, or the TV card?
note (again): no problem on picture at all.
I don't know which one has the problem, that is what I am trying to help you find out. If you plug something else into the soundcard's line-in (doesn't matter what as long as it works and is not the TV card, use a CD player, MP3 player, whatever) if you get sound, it is a TV card problem, if there is no sound, it is a soundcard issue.
You could also try plugging headphones into the TV card's output, if you get sound, this would also indicate a soundcard issue.
Without isolating the problem to one or the other, I can't help you. If it does end up being soundcard related, a model number for that will help.
