Hi;

using "v4l2=1" when loading bttv. NVrec says:

Any way to force it to use V4L2?

No - it seems the v4l2 driver does not support the complete v4l2 interface. Without this information, NVrec cannot initialise the v4l2 driver, and must fall back to v4l1.

I believe a patch to implement the missing functions has been submitted to Gerd, and will hopefully be included soon.
