Package:           kwintv
Version:           0.8.10 (using KDE 2.2.2 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.10-4GB
OS/Compiler notes: 

On my SuSE Linux 7.3 System I have some problems with KWinTV. If I would start the app it plays no sound. Sometimes some minutes later it plays it but mostly not. I've already installed Version 0.8.10 and 0.8.11 but i takes no effect...

Sorry folks, kwintv is old code and not being maintained because it's so brittle.  We have started a 
rewrite, which is quite usable now (though incomplete).  You can try your luck with it from 
kdenonbeta/kwintv3/, or wait for a real release sometime this year. 
 
Thanks for reporting the bugs.  Hopefully you'll have much better luck with the rewrite.  The 
developers find it to be much better already.
