hello and thanks in advance for any help offered. i'm an intermediate-advanced debian user running 2.4.18 kernel. however, i'm new to computer video capture. i picked up a dc10plus pinnacle sys card(for analog capture)that came with a studio av version 7 pack. i do have that other os loaded on a partition for this and its working with pinnacle's drivers. then i found out it's supported under linux, yeah! anyway, the driver developer's site is a bit confusing to me, the card shows up in lscpi(below) 02:0b.0 Multimedia video controller: Zoran Corporation ZR36057PQC Video cutting chipset (rev 02) Subsystem: Miro Computer Products AG DC10 Plus Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 3 Memory at d5800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] but there's so many modules that seem to point to this config, so i compiled in almost everything(as modules) related to video4linux,zoran, and dc10 including all the i2c stuff. i tried loading different module configs and nothing seems to work when using xawtv or anyting else. i'm assuming i might need some special module params, which i've never done before. also i'm not sure wich devices i need, the devices.txt file in /usr/src/linux/Documentation says there are devices for dc10 /dev/dc100 /dev/dc101 ... at major 94 and v4l uses /dev/video0... on major 81. i tried both and neither seems to work(using symlink /dev/video to each). so probably has something to do with module params, right? any suggestions? thanks -- "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.
