Also, where may one acquire a copy of the V4L1 api?

2) Streamer is part of xawTV distribution -- command line portion.

1) why bttv? I'm using a Quickcam zoom, which uses PWC modules.

1) Have you got "bttv" related modules installed (by "modprobe bttv")?
You can use "lsmod" to check out.

2) Why don't you use "xawtv" for a test first? It's so easy and
convenient.

Hello!

I'm using a Logitech Quickcam Zoom, kernel 2.4.20, PWC v 8.10.

A) I can cat /dev/video0 no problem, and pipe output to a file, what
format is the data in and could it be useful in any way?

B) videodog: ioctl VIDIOCMCAPTURE: Invalid argument

C) vgrabbber: unable to find a supported capture format

D) streamer -o hi.ppm: no grabber device available

As you can see, I'm trying many command line applications to test video
grabbing (No, don't have X and don't want it) however nothing seems to
work except cat /dev/video0 > file

I can see that the ascii spat at TTY during cat /dev/video0 changes as I
move the camera around, it seems to be working at least in that mode..

Anyone have any hints? I haven't had a single third party app grab
anything as of yet.

Thank you

- Steve Host
