I have km installed, but the functionality of this program/driver is that it requires a TV viewer program (like xawtv) running already. I am trying to avoid this if possible. Basically I'm trying to set up something that can do unattended video recording, and would prefer to not have to have a TV viewer running as well. It may be, however, that this is the only way forward. If I need to run km, then so be it, but I was hoping to avoid it!
