Indeed, I learned about this the same way you did- from this mailing list. Hans is pretty good about getting us all to a working state.

If you look down just a few lines, you will see where the "encoder VBI" configuration is. Set the PCI_DMA_FROMDEVICE to 1 just as you did with the MPEG, and those should go away, although the errors do seem to be fairly cosmetic, since everything works just fine as is. Recompile the driver with that change, and they will go away. _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
