Hallo Rupert, thanks a lot for the idea with the kernel. But unfortunately, the system hangs up now. I tested it with kernel-2.4.2 and did a cat /dev/video, waiting 10 seconds, hitting CTRL-C, which resulted in a 0 byte file. So I saw that I forgot to turn on the satellite receiver, which is my video-source. In the moment I turned the receiver on, the system hanged up. I tried this several times, it's always the same result. Greetings, Markus.
