got a Pinnacle PCTV Pro here. been using bttv-0.8.45 for a while and everything worked fine except for language switching .. started reading in here and decided maybe to give the stable branch a go and try out bttv-0.7.103 ... applied patches to 2.4.20, compiled it, rebooted, built modules, built bttv-0.7.103 started xawtv .. got the following complaint: config: invalid value for input: svideo valid choices for "input": "television", "composite1", "composite2 whattafuck? this card does have an svideo input. And I got my DVD-Player hooked up to it (which is why there's a channel called "DVD" in my .xawtv that says input = svideo) this used to work with the bttv-driver that came with 2.4.18, 2.4.19 and also with bttv-0.8.45. is there a special reason why now, all of a sudden, the bttv driver thinks I don't have an svideo input? v4lctl list: attribute | type | current | default | comment -----------+--------+---------+---------+------------------------------------- input | choice | (null) | Televis | Television Composite1 Composite2 mute | bool | on | off | audio mode | choice | stereo | auto | auto mono stereo lang1 lang2 volume | int | 65535 | 0 | range is 0 => 65535 norm | choice | PAL | PAL | PAL NTSC SECAM PAL-NC PAL-M PAL-N NTSC-JP bright | int | 24904 | 0 | range is 0 => 65535 hue | int | 26215 | 0 | range is 0 => 65535 color | int | 49152 | 0 | range is 0 => 65535 contrast | int | 26215 | 0 | range is 0 => 65535 my /etc/modules.d/bttv says: alias char-major-89 i2c-dev options i2c-core i2c_debug=0 options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1 options bttv card=52 kern.log while doing modprobe bttv: Jan 28 16:41:29 lormoral Linux video capture interface: v1.00 Jan 28 16:41:29 lormoral i2c-core.o: i2c core module Jan 28 16:41:29 lormoral i2c-algo-bit.o: i2c bit algorithm module Jan 28 16:41:29 lormoral bttv: driver version 0.7.103 loaded Jan 28 16:41:29 lormoral bttv: using 4 buffers with 2080k (8320k total) for capture Jan 28 16:41:29 lormoral bttv: Host bridge is VIA Technologies, Inc.
