Is there any way you could forward me the ivtvdev_drv.o file you are using and the xine/mplayer command you are using? I have to be close to getting this working! At the moment I'm in between where xvinfo still says there is no XVideo extension but "xine -pfhq -V xv -A alsa --no-logo --no-splash %s" will play movies with much less CPU utulization, but the colors and size are all screwed up. After upgrading to ivtv 0.3.5z I now get sound and no video.
I've verified /dev/video48 and all the other pieces a hundred times now... If you could forward me those files it would be greatly appreciated! I'm close to having it working, I can feel it :) Thanks --- Enter Tain <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This is great!
