try it without tv-viewer simply by using the command
cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg
while the VCR is playing.
Then open the test.mpg file with vlc. You can watch it while it is
recording.
Let' s see if this recording works or if again any encoder command
errors appear
You can check this in another console with
tail -f /var/log/syslog
I have done some more tinkering... It seems to be related to the composite
cables coming from the vcr player. ? Tv-viewer would not play. I'm getting a
lot of this below:
[19727.089020] pvrusb2: ***WARNING*** device's encoder appears to be stuck
(status=0x00000003)
[19727.089023] pvrusb2: Encoder command: 0x81
[19727.089024] pvrusb2: Giving up on command.? This is normally recovered via a
firmware reload and re-initialization; concern is only warranted if this
happens repeatedly and rapidly.
