Ciao all ML, I am using bttv 0.7.91on kernel 2.4.18 with Pinnaclesys PCTV RAVE. I am capturing mpeg-4 video at 15 fps 500 kbps bitrate without audio stream, with a custom program. When I have in input a PAL signal that came from a video switch I have this error and my application don't work any more. /var/log/messages : Dec 5 12:39:58 infoline kernel: bttv0: irq: SCERR risc_count=0e490820 Dec 5 12:39:58 infoline kernel: bttv0: irq: SCERR risc_count=0e490818 Dec 5 12:44:58 infoline kernel: bttv0: irq: SCERR risc_count=0e49082c Dec 5 12:44:58 infoline kernel: bttv0: aiee: error loops Dec 5 12:44:58 infoline kernel: bttv0: irq: SCERR risc_count=0e49082c Dec 5 12:44:58 infoline kernel: bttv0: aiee: error loops Dec 5 12:44:59 infoline kernel: bttv0: resetting chip Dec 5 12:44:59 infoline kernel: bttv0: PLL: 28636363 => 35468950 ... ok # cat /proc/version Linux version 2.4.18-14 (bhcompile@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)) #1 Wed Sep 4 13:35:50 EDT 2002 # cat video0 name : BT878(Pinnacle PCTV Studio/Ra) type : VID_TYPE_CAPTURE|VID_TYPE_TUNER|VID_TYPE_TELETEXT|VID_TYPE_OVERLAY hardware : 0x1 # lsmod Module Size Used by Not tainted via82cxxx_audio 23480 0 (autoclean) uart401 8420 0 (autoclean) [via82cxxx_audio] ac97_codec 13384 0 (autoclean) [via82cxxx_audio] sound 74388 0 (autoclean) [via82cxxx_audio uart401] soundcore 6532 4 (autoclean) [via82cxxx_audio sound] tuner 11456 2 (autoclean) tvaudio 14940 0 (autoclean) (unused) bttv 71424 2 (autoclean) videodev 8288 8 (autoclean) [bttv] i2c-algo-bit 8840 2 (autoclean) [bttv] i2c-core 19236 0 (autoclean) [tuner tvaudio bttv i2c-algo-bit] natsemi 18864 1 iptable_filter 2412 0 (autoclean) (unused) ip_tables 14936 1 [iptable_filter] # lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
