Well, it took me most of the day to figure out how to build the needed ivtv kernel module. Ah, Linux's lovely kernel menuconfig. For reasons I have yet to understand I had to enable a remote control module to get the ivtv module to show up under the appropriate menu. After building and loading the ivtv module the card appears to be working under Linux. Aside from the kernel module configuration I didn't have to jump through any hoops or search online for firmware to get it working. I'm working remotely via ssh right now so I can't be sure until I get home, but I was able to select the S-Video input and capture a short test video, which is presumably blank since nothing is connected to the S-Video input at the moment. But at least ffmpeg reports the test file as: [mpeg @ 0x652a80] max_analyze_duration 5000000 reached at 5005000 microseconds Input #0, mpeg, from 'test.mpg': Duration: 00:00:18.13, start: 0.289867, bitrate: 6593 kb/s Stream #0:0[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg2video (Main), yuv420p, 720x480 [SAR 8:9 DAR 4:3], 29.97 fps, 29.97 tbr, 90k tbn, 59.94 tbc Stream #0:1[0x1c0]: Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16p, 224 kb/s so it looks like the card is working. -- Kevin http://www.RawFedDogs.net http://Lassie.RawFedDogs.net http://www.WacoAgilityGroup.org Bruceville, TX What's the definition of a legacy system?
