>Thats probably the quickcam. What does "xawtv -hwscan" print? Sorry Gerd, I was tired when writing the message, and forgot to query the correct device... :) Here is the correct hw info: [florin@localhost buildgtk]$ v4l-conf -c /dev/v4l/video1 v4l-conf: using X11 display :0 dga: version 2.0 mode: 1024x768, depth=16, bpp=16, bpl=2048, base=0xe0000000 /dev/v4l/video1 [v4l2]: ioctl VIDIOC_QUERYCAP: Invalid argument /dev/v4l/video1 [v4l]: configuration done [florin@localhost buildgtk]$ xawtv -hwscan This is xawtv-3.88, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.21-0.13mdkcustom) looking for available devices port 42-42 type : Xvideo, image scaler name : NV Video Overlay /dev/v4l/video0: OK [ -device /dev/v4l/video0 ] type : v4l name : Logitech USB Camera flags: capture /dev/v4l/video1: OK [ -device /dev/v4l/video1 ] type : v4l name : BT878(Eagle Wireless Capricor) flags: overlay capture tuner Now I set the "card=51" option (this was the option in the old kernel, when Jetway 878FBK was not in the Cardlist... But "card=78" doesn't work either, I still can only watch TV, not recording... Would the problem be a mismatch with the kernel I use?! so it seems to me... Thanks Florin
