Did not see the trouble with unloading the modules on saa7134-0.2.7 and on the 0.2.8-snapshot from 20030521, it was resolved by the 4 lines from Tom Zoerner (a md9717 is here thanks!). Also have sound on the recordings taking care, that IGain is somewhat up with kmix. (For testing I use "v4lctl -c /dev/video0 volume mute off" and audacity.) > [root@gw root]# divx4rec -v /dev/video0 -o test2.mpg When I put your command it works here (attached), even I use regulary .avi and .mov format and set the -D and -s option and also -norm PAL and -input Television, what should not be required. Don't think the .mpg trick will work to use the outcome directly for a vcd :) > Starting nvrec.c, version CVS-current (nvrec-CVS-current). > nvcore_parse_file(617): Error opening "/etc/nvrec.conf" > nvcore_parse_file(617): Error opening "/root/.nvrec.conf" > v4l1_core_init(323): Size: 384x288 from /dev/video0 > v4l1_core_init(393): Set window: Invalid argument Some of the conditions are not fullfilled. Set -D to get maybe some more out. Using tvtime to set a channel is very comfortable and using a 600 MHz cpu should do it.

"case VIDIOCSWIN: /* set window and/or capture dimensions */" You should easily find it in the kraxelpatch-2.4.20-20030410, which I use don't having this error with 0.2.7 and snapshot 0.2.8-20030521 with the 4 lines from Tom copied in.
