OK, we use various models of the Haupauge WinTV cards (essentially the ever so popular, native linux supported dev BTV8X chip).
In order to get normal behavior with using the -f fps option, the import_v4l2 frame capture function was modified to loop N_divide_30fps times where. So, for example, if you are capturing at 30fps, and you want to grab 10fps, you loop N_divide_30fps = 3, etc. This was with an Ubuntu linux using transcode 1.0.2. Recently, we installed a version of iMedia linux : $ uname -a Linux localhost 2.6.20-imedia-i686 #1 PREEMPT Tue May 1 11:17:39 EEST 2007 i686 unknown And built transcode v.1.0.4. as prescribed. The same issues came up again. Has anyone experienced similar problems? No matter what kind of parameter permutations I have tried, I can't seem to get it to work with the distroed import_v4l2 mod. thanks in advance -- cheers, t
