Two questions: 1) Does anybody know how can I view the MPEG4 simple format generated by libfame 0.8.9 with the switch -P "mpeg4"? I got libdivxdecore but I don't know any program that uses that and I'd like to know something more before trying to write a program using it. 2) I'm trying to set up a system to grab images from four bttv grabbers (with a Provideo PV148 card). I made it work on a C3 800Mhz using a VIA motherboard (Mini ITX) but I have some problem when recording four mpeg together. The worst thing is that the system sometimes hangs up when I stop the recording. I lose keyboard and mouse and I can't do anything else than turning the power off, for the happiness of my root filesystem. The motherboard is a low-cost choice, I know, but I think there is something bad about the PCI bus. Can't I adjust PCI bus settings to get bttv work better? I already have put in my modules.conf: alias char-major-81 bttv options bttv card=39,39,39,39 gbuffers=10 options tuner type=4 I have already recompiled my kernel (2.4.18) with C3 optimizations on. I'm still using v4linux 1. Could a switch towards v4l2 help me? Thanks in advance. Stefano Alessio
