Thanks for the info. I will check when I get home.

I am wondering about v4l2: is it in the kernel, like v4l, or how do I implement it? I am definitely using v4l, not 2. I have put an entry into the xorg.conf to load the v4l module. Is this how I would load v4l2? Anything else I need to do?

Is v4l2 preferred? I see very little mention of it and it appears, looking at the bytesex site, to be somewhat a deviant or dead development line, or am I mistaken?

I have a TV Tuner card that runs using the BTTV module and TVTime works.
My lsmod looks like:

$ /sbin/lsmod | grep bttv
bttv                  158353  1 bt878
video_buf              23621  1 bttv
i2c_algo_bit            9033  1 bttv
v4l2_common             5825  1 bttv
btcx_risc               4937  1 bttv
tveeprom               13017  1 bttv
videodev                9665  1 bttv
i2c_core               21953  5 tuner,bttv,i2c_algo_bit,tveeprom,i2c_viapro

My modprobe.conf is:

alias char-major-81 bttv

With this configuration, it works "out of the box".

Sorry I can't be of more help but hope it gives you some clues ..

Best,

Oops. Just got home. I guess something has changed without me noticing. I AM using v4l2_common.

It is bttv2 that is deviating and discontinued.

But anyhow, got any ideas why it is not possible to view a television channel with kmplayer, using tv://channelnumber, as indicated in the documentation?
