Hi Steve, with changes you mentioned nothing changed for me :-( Starting NVrec.c, version 20011228 (NVrec-20011228). v4lgen core init - Device /dev/v4l/video0 v4l2 core init - Size: 384x288 from /dev/v4l/video0 v4l2 core init - trying format YUV420 v4l2 core init - could not request parameters: Invalid argument [v4l2_core.c] ... vct->fd = open(fdev, O_RDWR); ... vct->bufs[i * vct->planes] = (unsigned char *)mmap(NULL, vct->cbuf.length, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, vct->fd, vct->cbuf.offset); ... Something missed?
