i've tried out 0.2.0-rc3j now, having the same disturbances with the stream, but the error messages on the console differ (but they also appear every second or even more often): ivtv: ENC: REG_DMAXFER wait failed ivtv: DMA Registers State: xfer: 0x00000000, state: 0x00000003 dec_addr: 0x00000000 enc_addr: 0x170a0060 control: 0x00000003 ivtv: DMA DEC Buffers: 0x00000000:0x00000000:0x00000000 ivtv: DMA ENC Buffers: 0x000f8adc:0x08508000:0x00004000 0x000fcadc:0x1cf68000:0x80004000 0x0014fadc:0x05000000:0x00004000 0x00153adc:0x05a20000:0x00004000 0x00157adc:0x06188000:0x80004000 0x000efb1c:0x198f4000:0x80004000 0x00133b1c:0x077b4000:0x00004000 0x00137b1c:0x07198000:0x80004000 ivtv: Timeout waiting for data! Encoder buffers have 0x00000000 bytes. might a bad/weak cable signal cause these troubles? bye jonas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
