Can anybody tell me why I got the 'Unresolved symbol' after installing the latest bttv driver? Currently I've installed Red Hat 7.3 on my PC. But I got no problem at all when running Mandrake 8.2. Why?

Hi I looked on list archives and found that capture cards with multiple inputs don't work ( getting continuous video from all 4 ). I saw the solutions are to get pictures by switching between inputs with a delay or use another hardware piece which combines them in one video. Is this still the current situation? veejay.sourceforge.net says will support multiple inputs starting with the tomorrow release, but can it record from all inputs at once? We are interested in using PV-140V PCI 4-CVBS-In Video Capture Card ( bt878 chip ) for continuous video surveillance. A company which sells surveillance systems with this card would like to use Linux instead of the current Windows 2000 solution to lower the prices. I looked in kernel-doc, it doesn't mention multiple inputs. Initially I thought we'll have /dev/video0, /dev/video1... (as if there were 4 cards), but that's not the case. Where could I find more documentation about this?

But there are also some grabber cards with a PCI-PCI bridge and 4 bt8x8 chips behind it.

With a teletext stream swapped field output is very obvious, since you get the bottom half of the text pages before the upper half (and even before the page header, which renders the data stream broken and useless.) I've sent Gerd a work-around last week which solves the problem for VBI (it's already in the snapshot). You could apply the same work-around for video; maybe you could try this hack just to see if swapped fields are causing the artefacts: in saa7134-video.c::saa7134_irq_video_done() change "if ((status & 0x10) == 0x10)" into "if ((status & 0x10) != 0x10)" Note this inversion will only apply to interlaced capturing, not to single fields. This is only a work-around because it does not comply with the definition of the status bits in the data sheet. Of course the spec may be wrong, but this has to be investigated. BTW it would help if someone could name a specific driver version which did not have the swapping. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Billy Biggs (vektor) Date: 2003-03-19 11:14 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=153320 Stian Jordet claims to see this also, but also notes it did not use to be like this. zytta on #livid also claims this behavior, and I believe this person is using the march 13th snapshot.

Hmm. Thanks. I've had a look at the nvidia docs, and there doesn't seem to be a way to "unallocate" any memory. Since it wants 4Mb of the 64Mb video ram (I assume that's what it wants), I tried limiting the driver's use to 60Mb in XF86Config (VideoRam 61440) but that didn't make any difference. Are there any workarounds possible? > Gerd Thanks. (With the nvidia driver being binary-only and all, I suspect that I'm not going to get very far with this problem).

I have to decide the next field (top or bottom) in the IRQ handler depending whether the bt chip previously captured a wrong field or not. Now it is decided in qbuf. Can you give some hint what I have to change in the driver?

The TV board is now installed and working in a PC with an NVidia Riva Ultra 64. But we would like to do video captures with an unattended, minimal PC without keyboard, screen, or graphics board. What is the role of the graphics board with the WinTV-GO? If we remove the Nvidia, I realize xawtv and other playback software will no longer work, but would video captures with, say, FFMPEG, still work? -- Michel Bardiaux Peaktime Belgium S.A.
