Re: [Plib-users] Onboard Sound Support?

[<ha...@sl...>]

You can get a SB Live Value for like 30 bucks these days, I'd suggest that 
over the sound blaster pci 128 (sb pci 128) cards.  The driver allows 
multiple opens on /dev/dsp and it also allows you to mute input's while 
you record from that particular input.  The es1370 driver doesn't let you 
do that.  MythTV (www.mythtv.org) requires this ability (it provides 
software to let you do television time-shifting and pausing of live tv).

I recently yanked my sound blaster pci 128 and replaced it with an 
official sb live value I got for $30 including shipping (found by 
searching www.pricewatch.com)
