The one I have (version > 0.7.57) comes with 2.4.2 For the reopen bug I'd like to see a small test program which is able to f*ck up bttv this way (i.e. after running it xawtv stops working in grabdisplay mode). The SYNC ioctl might get interrupted by signals, yes. You have to catch and handle errno == -EINTR in your program. Gerd -- Gerd Knorr <kraxel@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- SuSE Labs, Außenstelle Berlin
