Hi Kaushik, I'd be grateful for any help with live video I can get. I have video playing on a surface, but it's just snow, apparently because the app is not using the Composite1/NTSC input/norm coming from my camera (a video4linux2 device). Anyway, my efforts to change the input/norm settings via ioctl from within my app don't seem to have any effect. I found the following post from about a year and a half ago that seems to indicate that changing v4l2 params is a lost cause without changing source and recompiling the DirectFB library itself: http://mail.directfb.org/pipermail/directfb-users/2005-May/000227.html If there's a way to tweak v4l2 parameters from within the app so that directfb reads in the live video stream correctly, I'd be grateful for any pointers or code examples. Or even just having a confirmation that recompiling the directfb library source is necessary would be very helpful. I do very much look forward to any working code examples you're willing to post.
