The saa7134 driver doesn't seem to honor the VIDIOC_G_PARM call. This causes nvrec to crash when timeperframe isn't filled out. I'm not sure what these fields should be set to, but I took a stab in the dark. I assume it depends on the television standard being used. Is timeperframe 1/60 (s) for NTSC?
