Hey guys, I finally had to give up on my old WinTV USZ2 device. I bought one on Ebay and it works fine with one annoying problem. I am wanting to convert all my old vhs family movies to MP3 type format. I don't recall the application I did my recording with before, but it was cake to use. For some reason xawtv does not display video. It just freezes. I can stream data via VLC, and TV-viewer. Tvtime won't work from what I read. I'm open to any suggestions on what works easily at this point.
The first time I fired up my vcr player and the tv-viewer it started recording and I was elated. Tv channels change and that part is great!! However, the problem... When I select a tape to record, I can not see the video being played. For some reason, it does not seem to allow me to see it in the tv-viewer window while the record program is working. ? What ever I used before I could. But, what seems to be happening is the recording is not going, and there is no way to determine if it is working, unless I go to where the file is being recorded and I can see the size increasing. When it does not record, it seems locked up and nothing helps but powering down the tuner and bringing it back up. I grabbed the tail end of dmesg, hoping it will be obvious to someone that has a clue.
