I have retried with the latest SVN, and the behaviour has changed. When
I switch to radio mode, every time I cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/toto, it
creates a /tmp/toto file of exactly 12224 bytes. It contains a pack
header, a system header and the first I frame. It stops after that. Do
you have any idea which changeset might have changed this behaviour ?
This may be a hint as to where I must look.

Thanks,
