Hello,

I would like to try out Justins NVrec program using "-N 32", but I can't load the bttv2.o module using
"gbuffers=32". (I guess "gbnuffers=32" is a typo in
Justins README.) modprobe complains with "invalid parameter parm_gbuffers" so I wonder if
this is only a valid parameter for V4L1.

Thanks for your help.


gbuffers is only valid in bttv. To increase the number of buffers in bttv2, increase bttv_maxmem (default is 8). This tells the driver what the maximum amount of memory (in megabytes) is to allocate capture buffers. I usually load bttv2 with bttv_maxmem=32 (which gives _lots_ of buffers ;-) ).
