Yeargh, I forgot about SPIGOT_UNSECURE, thanks. However, even when running as root and the following being true: (#) dmesg|grep spigot spigot0 at 0xad6 irq 15 maddr 0xee000 on isa (#) ls -l /dev/spigot cr--r--r-- 1 root wheel 11, 0 Jul 12 19:42 /dev/spigot I still don't see the spigot listed as a grabber type. I'll try again with SPIGOT_UNSECURE and see if that makes any difference. > The meteor should work with the 440fx chipset if you don't use the > multiple dma transfer mode (i.e. use the YUV_PACKED mode).

To be honest, I hadn't actually tried it with vic - since I don't have multicast working over here. Neither I nor CRL seem to be able to get the routers talking multicast to one another, despite my having done everything to our router on this end that various people told me to do; it perhaps being still on the CRL end since they're not all that familiar with multicast over there and may not even be getting it onto their internal network correctly, thus explaining why I didn't have very good results from my end. In any case, is it possible to disable this in the meteor driver itself so that things like "tv" don't use it? My main use for the meteor was actually taking snapshots of things using tv - I never actually used it for conferencing. :) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
