Well actually I havent done that yet I figure there is only one tuner Ntsc thats all Philips components(2) > (/usr/src/linux/Documentation/???).

It would be great if you mentioned how one does "Unload and reload bttv" However I just restarted and this is new in /var/log/messages: bttv.o: invalid parameter parm_tuner so I removed tuner=2 from options bttv card=6 tuner=2 and now I have essentially options tuner type=2 options bttv card=6 alias char-major-81 bttv And !!! it works I get input from Composit Now !!! BUT !!! its not at all smooth :o( !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its more like 5-10 fps and that on a PIII 500 ? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So is there some DMA or so I am missing ? Thanks for all the help - I am hoping to get to the same problems as the other subscribers who have been trying to publish Real Video ... cheers Tobias
