Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xawtv
The "scantv" utility specifies the default "vbi" device file as /dev/vbi. This may fail because v4l2 creates /dev/vbi0 instead. For example: saa7130[0]: registered device video0 [v4l2] saa7130[0]: registered device vbi0 saa7130[0]: registered device radio0 The solution is trivial: 1. Use "scantv -C /dev/vbi0" or 2. Symlink to the correct file "ln -s /dev/vbi0 /dev/vbi" Still, I think this should be fixed in the package. Is there any reason to expect only one /dev/vbi? What happens when there are two TV tuners? I assume /dev/vbi0 and /dev/vbi1 both exist? This has been known for a long time in Debian and Ubuntu, but nobody has done anything about it.
