Hi all,
I have been trying to get my saa7134 based TV-card to work for days with
no success.
When I try to start xawtv I get the following messages:

I think this is fine, besides the message:
ioctl: VIDIOCMCAPTURE(0,fmt=4,size=384x288): Invalid argument
It seems that the tuner is working, scantv finds some channels with a
PAL signal.
In the archive I found many emails about this, but actually no real help.
Here is my setup:
latest saa7134 driver from bytesex.org (version 0.1.6)
latest xawtv from bytesex.org (version 3.74)
kernel 2.4.19-pre8 with patch from bytesex.org
and here is the output from loading the modules:

Any help appreciated, I simply don't know what to try anymore.
Thanks
