I'm trying to get my video capture setup, for the first time since I moved to FC4, and am having a couple of problems. First, I need the module zoran, which I thought was in the kernel when I used this previously, but is reported as not found now. All the other required modules are found and loaded. Second, I used xawtv as a monitor. I never could get tvtime to work on Mandriva, and here on FC4 I find that it is not seeing the capture card, and therefore won't allow me to set it as a source. Of course, the missing module may be responsible for this. While I was trying to trace xawtv I came across the info that camE is a rewrite of xawtv, so I've installed that. However, attempting to launch it gives me [anne@david ~]$ camE camE: camE 1.9 - (c) 1999, 2000 Gerd Knorr, Tom Gilbert camE: grabber config: size 320x240, input 0, norm 0, jpeg quality 75 [anne@david ~]$ can't load font arial/8 can't load font arial/8 setting cam pic: Invalid argument camE: negotiated palette RGB24 camE: DC10plus[0] detected camE: * taking shot ioctl VIDIOCMCAPTURE: Invalid argument no image captured Is anyone using this package? I haven't so far managed to find any configuration files. Clearly I need to do something about the font, and probably about changing the format to PAL. Any other comments/suggestions? Anne
