Good hint, but I always close the video device before I change settings. I use the sample code from http://www.thedirks.org/v4l2/. Therefore I think, I do everything right. I tested some more things: With the card type 0, I only can use the plug 3 (available: 0-3) With type 1, I only can use plug 2. Changing the port with 'ioctl' has no effect! What are the differences between the different cards with respect to switching the input ports? Thanx for help Michael Kellner
