I found out what the problem was... seems Redhat 7.3 comes installed
with xawtv 3.73 - which doesn't have have motv.

When I installed xawtv 3.85 it didn't overwrite the older version
(despite the fact that it didn't give any error messages)

This also stopped the "v4lctl volume mute off" sound fix for mplayer
from working.

As far as I know I'm probably using v4l1

I'm using the version of mplayer that comes as part of the freevo
1.32pre1 rpms.
