Hi,
I am trying to get video capture working on an 878 based board with a VIA
EPIA motherboard, VIA C3-800 CPU.
xawtv always works for me. streamer works, but only captures up to 15fps - I
need 25. I can successfully install vcr 1.09 with avifile0.6. However, on
Mandrake 8.1 and 8.2, and Redhat 7.2, executing vcr causes the PC to reboot.
I have tried with the kernels that come with these distros, as well as
2.4.19. I have tried upgrading bttv to 0.7.65, and to 0.8.44 with videodevX
20020330. One time I got vcr to actually capture, but it hung the machine on
quitting.
I also tried zapping, but it will not start (says I have no mmx?). If anyone
can help me at all, or give me any suggestions of other capture programs to
try, I would really appreciate it. Meanwhile, I am probably going to have to
look at what is making streamer so slow, and try to fix it (ugh).
