I am kinda new to linux, so please be patient
with me.
History of the problem: I installed RedHat
7.3 on a P4 1.8 Ghz with ATI Radeon 7000 All in Wonder card. I downloaded
and installed mpeg4ip and could not get it to work. I read some
documentation and found several suggestions to get xawtv working first. So
I downloaded and installed xawtv 3.80. It did the same thing. The
error is "cant open /dev/video0: no such device". I checked the /dev and
found video, video0, video1, etc.... video is a directory, but video 1 - 4
are all the c type and I even did chmod 777 on all video0 - 4
devices. I even ran MAKEDEV.v4l. I saw that it put a symbolic
link in, but same error. I even formated and reinstalled Red Hat 7.3 and
picked to install xawtv as a package off the CD's. Version 3.73 comes with
RedHat 7.3.
I am trying to get live video from a VHS camcorder
through the RCA jacks on the ATI All in Wonder card.
Please, please help. I have been working on
this for over a week and been to the mpeg4ip mailing list and they said that it
was probably a video4linux problem.
Please help.
