Yes, that's a feature :-(  As far as MPlayer is concerned, the TV input
has no sound.  MPlayer just turns on the sound of the tuner,
everything else you have to do with an external mixer program, usually
by adjusting the level of the line input.

Of course, it would be nice, if for TV input, the MPlayer volume
controls would be used for adjusting the line level.  It should not be
too difficult to implement, if you do it, I would use it ;-)

I think, it would be even better, if MPlayer could, as an option, get
the sound from the sound card (as MEncoder does) and then send it back
to the sound card for output (but would every sound card support
that?).  That would mean, that audio filters could be used and
A/V-sync could be regulated.

Greetings,

Carsten
