Hi,

My cable-tv-provider (Liwest, Austria) broadcasts Eurosport in 'Dual
language'-Mode. If I watch this channel I have a mixture of english/german
audio. On my TV I hear the german audio.

I tried to experiment with
/sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-8239281/ctl_audio_mode/cur_val the results are:

echo "Stereo" > /sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-8239281/ctl_audio_mode/cur_val ->
mixture of german/english

echo "Lang1" > /sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-8239281/ctl_audio_mode/cur_val ->
english only

echo "Lang2" > /sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-8239281/ctl_audio_mode/cur_val ->
english only

It seems that there is something broken with the Lang1 and Lang2 settings,
cos the 2 settings have the same effect. 

Does any1 know how to setup the system, that I can hear the german audio? Do
the Lang1 and Lang2 settings work?
