Careful. You're using an ATI card with the GATOS drivers. You must load the 'km' module to get a V4L compatible /dev/video device, otherwise the card provides an XVideo-based API to control the tuner which is not useful for capturing frames for compression. The V4L interface exported through the km is a little strange though and some apps do not like it. As well, it only supports a read()-based API and is poor for performance. This is what people tell me though, I do not own one of the cards. Good luck, -Billy -- Billy Biggs vektor@xxxxxxxxxxxx
