v4ltest is really only for me to test the v4l ioctl's. The v4ltune will allow you to tune the card by rounding the frequency to the correct value. Then you can tune the card before running mencoder. The best way to check the capabilities of you card is with v4lctl from the xawtv package. For my bttv card at /dev/video1 I get: # v4lctl -c /dev/video1 list attribute | type | current | default | comment -----------+--------+---------+---------+------------------------------------- norm | choice | PAL | PAL | PAL NTSC SECAM PAL-Nc PAL-M PAL-N NTSC-JP PAL-60 input | choice | Televis | Televis | Television Composite1 S-Video Composite3 audio mode | choice | stereo | mono | mono stereo lang1 lang2 bright | int | 32768 | 32768 | range is 0 => 65535 contrast | int | 32768 | 32768 | range is 0 => 65535 color | int | 32768 | 32768 | range is 0 => 65535 hue | int | 32768 | 32768 | range is 0 => 65535 volume | int | 58880 | 65535 | range is 0 => 65535 Bass | int | 32768 | 32768 | range is 0 => 65535 Treble | int | 32768 | 32768 | range is 0 => 65535 mute | bool | on | off | chroma agc | bool | off | off | combfilter | bool | off | off | automute | bool | on | off | luma decim | bool | off | off | agc crush | bool | on | off | vcr hack | bool | off | off | whitecrush | int | 207 | 207 | range is 0 => 255 whitecrush | int | 127 | 127 | range is 0 => 255 If your card works with the tv applications then you should have no problem with mencoder, so long as you have the arguments correct. ;-) *** When you run the mencoder command what do you get as output? > Using tune, I'm getting the same frequency for every channel.

It uses names so you can run ./tune bbc or ./tune sf1. You would need to edit this for you own channel list.
