Here is what happens when playing the mpg file with mplayer

For AVI files, try to force non-interleaved mode with the -ni option.

>Which begs some questions:

I am trying to debug using mplayer right now, but ultimately I'll be using
mythtv
>Do you get the message when you simply do:
>$ cat /dev/video1 > foo.mpg
I get no error messages when encoding using cat
>Do you also get the message when using /dev/video0 with your preferred
>application?
I've posted the output of mplayer above
>What does the output look like in your preferred application?
I get a black screen with no snow.
>Does the output look OK when playing back the foo.mpg file captured with
>cat?
Nope.
Any theories?
thx
