Does your card work on it's own? That's the first step :) I just got
mine today, and after getting that to work, there were only a few
other things.

I wrote a wrapper around mine (just a shell script) so I could use it
the way I wanted. The best thing to do is run the record_v4l2.pl
script and figure out how you want to configure it and use the '-S'
switch which will save your options.

After that, just use the "named" parameters in local_config. The other
thing is that this is a short term solution; Rob is working on
something much cooler, so you'll only have to deal with this for a
little while.

The options Freevo needs to deal with are

--duration %(seconds)s
--channel %(channel)s
--output $(filename)s

The rest of the settings are up to you.
