[Bug 340769] [NEW] tvtime: audio routing from external (usb) TV card

[Alex Riesen]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tvtime

I have an USB TV card:
http://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/uk/Products/Consumer+Products/PCTV+Tuners/PCTV+Mac/Pinnacle+TV+for+Mac+Hybrid+Stick.htm

The card has its own associated set of problems, but one of them is
more generic: routing of the audio stream into the host system.
There was a patch regarding "sound bridge" on tvtime's homepage:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=1657446&group_id=64301&atid=506989
Sadly, the patch's link is dead (and the project looks dead since 2008).
Having no experience with ALSA, I hacked together the patch (against tvtime-1.0.2).

So, if either someone can do that better, or has the "sound bridge" patch
mentioned, please drop me a line. I believe that there can be others who
would find the feature useful. It's sad to see the project die, tvtime is a
very small, fast and simple program. Clean coding, too.
